How does chutney help in managing cholesterol?

Courtesy of nutrition Anjali Mukherjee's Instagram post, there is a particular type of chutney that helps in LDL management. Anjali also shared the full recipe and benefits of the chutney in her Instagram post. 

She captioned the post saying, "We are all familiar with what cholesterol is and the liver's role in its production. What we also need to understand is that what we eat has a major effect on the amount of bad cholesterol produced in our body and subsequently puts us at risk for several health problems like heart attacks, strokes, and atherosclerosis. In order to avoid these issues, it is vital to know that healthy eating habits form the cornerstone of any cholesterol control plan and can help to reduce your cholesterol naturally. Hence in my endeavour to bring about a balance between taste and health, I have created a recipe that promotes a cholesterol-lowering effect."
