Yes, high cholesterol is a slow disease that can lead to serious problems like heart attack and stroke. If you are not careful about your breakfast habits, then you are unknowingly putting yourself at risk.

Sugary Cereals
Many people, from children to adults, like to eat sugary cereals with milk in the morning. Although they may look 'healthy' in the advertisement, they contain a lot of sugar, refined carbohydrates and low fiber. These things increase triglycerides and LDL cholesterol in the liver . Instead of these, you can include oats, porridge or unsweetened whole grains in your breakfast.
Bakery Products
Eating pastries, cookies, donuts or sweet muffins with your morning cup of tea may taste delicious, but they are high in trans fat and saturated fat. These unhealthy fats directly increase your cholesterol levels. This cholesterol not only hardens your arteries but also increases the risk of heart disease.
Fried Foods
Samosas, kachoris, puris or parathas are prepared in many homes for breakfast. They are tasty, but they contain a lot of oil and unhealthy fats. These oils rapidly increase the cholesterol levels in your body and can narrow your blood vessels.
Full-fat dairy products
Many people think that milk, cheese and yogurt are healthy, but if you are consuming full-fat products then it is not good for cholesterol. They contain high saturated fat. Instead of these, you can use low-fat or skimmed milk, yogurt and cheese.
white bread
It is very common to use white bread in the form of toast or sandwich in the morning. White bread is made from refined flour which has very little fiber.
