Great list, thank you. I am also doing most of these.
Perhaps you might consider adding in fiber. Both soluble and insoluble.

Thanks. Since I eat a lot of fiber and plant diversity (strive for 40 plants per week) in my diet, I don’t use fiber supplements. But I agree fiber is useful for reducing cholesterol absorption.
Almost daily:
Steelcut oatmeal
Blueberries (blackberry, raspberry)
Beans / legumes
Raw carrots
Celery
Wheatgerm
