Cholesterol is not just a number on our tests.
It is a basic structural substance that the body uses to rebuild tissues and cells. To be transported through the blood, it needs a water-soluble "transport structure", such as lipoproteins (HDL and LDL).
Balance is key.
Too much LDL can lead to deposits in the arteries, while HDL helps transport excess cholesterol back to the liver.
Tips for healthy cholesterol levels:
Adopt a diet rich in fiber & good fats.
Engage in physical activity every day.
Check your cholesterol levels regularly
Health starts with the small changes we make every day.
