About Cholesterol

Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance found in your body's cells and in many foods of animal origin, such as meat, dairy, and eggs. While your body produces cholesterol naturally to help build cells, make hormones, and digest fats, dietary cholesterol comes specifically from animal-based foods. Cholesterol itself is not inherently "bad," but high levels can lead to health concerns. There are two key types: LDL, or "bad" cholesterol, which can accumulate in arteries and raise the risk of heart disease, and HDL, or "good" cholesterol, which helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream. Balancing these levels is crucial for cardiovascular health. Foods high in saturated and trans fats can contribute to elevated LDL levels, while those rich in unsaturated fats, like nuts and avocados, may help boost HDL. Maintaining a balanced diet and lifestyle is essential to managing cholesterol effectively.
