What is cholesterol ?
Cholesterol is a type of fat in your blood. There are two different types :
LDL Cholesterol : is sometimes called " bad" cholesterol. It can narrow or block your blood vessels. Narrowed vessels can raise your risk for a heart attack or stroke. Keeping your LDL cholesterol LOW protects your heart.
HDL cholesterol : is sometimes called "good" cholesterol. It helps remove deposits from inside of your blood vessels and stops the blood vessels from getting blocked. Keeping your HDL cholesterol HIGH protects your heart. |
