Hi Jackie,
A diet to lower cholesterol in children is very similar to that of an adult. Review the information at the link below to learn more about a diet a to lower cholesterol.

Pay particular attention to the information on saturated and trans fats, omega 3 fatty acids, and soluble fiber.
All the best,

Should not eat red meat, and other foods high in saturated fat. But, my doctor told me that 80% of your cholesterol is made in the liver and only 20% of your cholesterol is from the foods that you eat.
