A plant-based diet high in fiber may lower bad cholesterol; only in individuals with a type of familial hypercholesterolemia will diet be unable to lower levels into the safe range. For example see the review from the editor and chief of the Journal of American Cardiology below (Roberts, 2010). The literature supporting cholesterol lowering through plant based diet is just too vast to summaries but see for example Ferdowsian, 2009 below.
The new USDA Dietary Guidelines (heavily influenced by meat and dairy industries) even recommend a more plant-based diet to lower cholesterol intake.
