Maintain Cholesterol Levels: Do you know how important it is to maintain cholesterol levels in the body. It is a fat-like substance that is produced by the liver. The liver naturally produces that cholesterol which is necessary for the body, but it is available in large quantities through animal best food. If bad cholesterol increases in the body, it can lead to heart diseases. Today we will tell you how cholesterol can be reduced naturally.
What is cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance that our bodies need to build healthy cells. Although it often gets a bad rap (and too much can be dangerous), the truth is that our bodies simply couldn’t function without cholesterol.
Not all cholesterol is the same. high-density lipoprotein (HDL) – “good cholesterol” – actually helps remove that bad cholesterol from your bloodstream. On the other hand, Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) – or “bad cholesterol” – can make plaque in your arteries, putting you at risk for hardened arteries (atherosclerosis), heart disease, vascular issues, and more.
