Cholesterol Support for Men
High Cholesterol
in Men
Understand Your Numbers.
Know What to Do Next.
Personalized nutrition and wellness guidance to help you understand the factors influencing your cholesterol and build practical changes that support long-term cardiovascular health.
Looking Beyond One Number
What Can Influence Your Cholesterol?
Cholesterol is influenced by more than one food or habit. Genetics, eating patterns, activity, metabolic health and other health factors can all contribute to the results you see.
Genetics and Family History
Some men are more likely to develop high cholesterol because of inherited factors, even when they already follow generally healthy routines.
Your Overall Eating Pattern
The balance of fibre, saturated and unsaturated fats, highly processed foods and nutrient-rich foods can influence cholesterol over time.
Physical Activity
Regular movement can support cardiovascular and metabolic health. The goal is to find activity that is realistic enough to maintain.
Blood Sugar and Metabolic Health
Cholesterol, triglycerides, blood sugar, blood pressure and body composition can overlap and may need to be considered together.
Smoking and Alcohol
Smoking, vaping and frequent or heavy alcohol use can contribute to cardiovascular risk and affect the broader health picture.
Health Conditions and Medication
Certain health conditions and medications may affect cholesterol. These factors should be discussed with your physician or another regulated healthcare provider.
Understanding Your Results
What Your Cholesterol Numbers Mean
A cholesterol panel includes several measurements. Looking at how these numbers relate to one another can provide more useful context than focusing on a single result in isolation.
LDL Cholesterol
LDL carries cholesterol through your bloodstream. Higher levels may be associated with increased cardiovascular risk, but your overall health and other risk factors also matter.
HDL Cholesterol
HDL helps transport cholesterol back to the liver. Its meaning is best understood alongside LDL, triglycerides and your broader cardiovascular health.
Triglycerides
Triglycerides are a form of fat found in the blood. Their levels can be influenced by eating patterns, alcohol, activity, blood sugar regulation and other health factors.
Total Cholesterol
Total cholesterol combines several measurements into one number. It can provide a useful starting point, but it does not tell the complete story on its own.
Personalized Nutrition Program
Metabolic Balance
Measure. Personalize. Support.
A structured nutrition program developed around your blood markers, health history and individual needs. It provides a personalized starting point for building nutrition habits that may support your cholesterol and overall metabolic health.
A Personalized Approach to Cholesterol Support
Metabolic Balance uses your laboratory results, health history and personal information to create an individualized food plan. Janet helps you apply the plan to meals and daily routines while you continue any medical monitoring or treatment recommended by your healthcare team.
01
Health Information Review
Your blood markers, health history, routines and goals provide the individual context behind your plan.
02
Personalized Food Plan
Your food choices, portions and meal structure are developed around your individual profile rather than a generic diet.
03
Practical Nutrition Guidance
Janet helps you apply the plan to grocery shopping, everyday meals, eating out, travel and other real-life situations.
04
Ongoing Support
Continued guidance helps you solve challenges, stay consistent and build habits that can be maintained over time.
Nutrition and wellness guidance does not diagnose or treat high cholesterol. It complements, rather than replaces, physician assessment, laboratory monitoring, prescribed medication or other medical treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About Cholesterol Support
Can nutrition changes help support healthy cholesterol?
Eating patterns can influence cholesterol and broader cardiovascular health. Janet can help you identify practical nutrition changes based on your current habits, preferences and health goals.
Do I need to stop eating all foods that contain cholesterol?
Cholesterol management is not usually about eliminating one food. Your overall eating pattern—including the types of fats you eat, fibre intake, meal structure and food choices over time—provides more useful context.
Can Janet interpret my cholesterol test results?
Janet can consider information from your results when providing nutrition and wellness guidance, but she does not diagnose high cholesterol or replace medical interpretation. Your physician or another regulated healthcare provider should explain your results and recommend medical treatment.
Should I stop taking cholesterol medication?
No medication should be started, stopped or changed without speaking with the prescribing healthcare provider. Nutrition guidance can complement your medical treatment but does not replace it.
Is the Metabolic Balance Program required?
Not necessarily. Janet can help determine whether focused nutrition support or the more structured Metabolic Balance Program is better aligned with your concerns, goals and desired level of support.
What does the Metabolic Balance Program include?
The program uses your health history, individual needs and 36 blood markers to create a personalized food plan. It also includes ongoing coaching to help you apply the plan and make adjustments over time.
