Things you must essentially do after eating high cholesterol food
Avoid eating and drinking anything cold

After having a heavy meal, do physical activities like walking, going up and down the stairs, or just strolling while listening to music. This will not just burn the calories but will also massage the liver and the intestines and enable them to function better.
Do not go straight to bed

Mix a tablespoon of lemon juice and two big pinches of sendha namak in a glass of warm water and drink it.

Mix a tablespoon of Triphala powder in a glass of warm water. This remedy will help in reducing the adverse effects of oily foods.
Consume two pinches of long pepper powder with warm water along with honey twice a day for three to four days.
