Oatmeal is a source of soluble fiber which effectively reduces the low-density lipoprotein known as LDL. This is often referred to as the bad cholesterol. Soluble fiber decreases the absorption of cholesterol into the bloodstream. The staff of the Mayo Clinic recommends consuming 5 to 10 grams or more of soluble fiber to effectively reduce high cholesterol. A serving of 1 ½ cups of cooked oatmeal provides 6 grams of fiber.
