6. Fatty pork sausage
Next on our list of the worst foods for high cholesterol are fatty pork sausages. Intake of processed meats like sausage can make keeping your cholesterol levels within healthy ranges even more difficult.
According to nutritionists, most smoked sausages contain about 6 grams of saturated fat per two-ounce serving (not to mention the 350 to 500 milligrams of sodium—you don’t want to increase blood pressure too!) and a sausage kielbasa contains 5 grams of saturated fat per two-ounce serving.
This being said, experts recommend being extra careful with fatty pork sausage consumption when managing high cholesterol. They suggest replacing them with lean options such as pork loin.

Good article, thanks
All this info was a good idea I’m happy to know more about this thank you
THERE is the case for vegetarianism! Unrefined plant matter is devoid of cholesterol! No matter how you look at it, eating dead animal bodies (carrion) is a losing deal…

There goes 75% of my diet. I eat almost all these foods on a regular basis. Thanks for reccomending alternatives. Time for big changes.
These recommendations are way off. Anything with fake sugar like HFCS, Corn Syrup, etc. causes your cholesterol to rise. Avoid white sugar and artificial sweeteners. You can eat as much egg, steak, cheese, etc, as you want. When my husband eliminated processed “sugars” his cholesterol dropped 80 points. This was 20 years ago. I did my research online and discovered it’s the man-made sugars that cause your body to make cholesterol. He eats pork sausages, steaks, eggs, maple syrup, sucanat(sugar cane natural), honey etc. to his heart’s content.
