9. Soy
Eating soybeans and foods made from them, like tofu and soy milk, was once thought to be a super powerful way to lower cholesterol. However, analyses show that the effect is more "modest" — consuming 25 grams of soy protein a day (10 ounces of tofu or a whole cup of soy milk) can lower LDL by 5% to 6%. Although the effect is not as superior as people thought, adding soy protein in your diet can still help you lower cholesterol.
