For the past 6 months he's been 100% vegan. A month and 1/2 ago he had a stroke and is fine now but was found to have high cholesteral. The doctors said that because of his diet it must be hereditary and prescribed lipitor. He will go shortly for a follow up appt. to see if his cholesteral has come down. Is there anything natural that we can do to bring down his cholesteral?

You can raise good cholesterol by exercising. Good cholesterol, or HDL, is "good" because it is the cholesterol that is poised to be excreeted with the fiber.
