Managing cholesterol levels is crucial for maintaining heart health and preventing cardiovascular diseases. High cholesterol can lead to the buildup of plaques in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Fortunately, there are several strategies you can implement at home to keep your cholesterol in check. By making informed lifestyle choices, you can significantly impact your cholesterol levels and overall health.
Understanding Cholesterol and Its Impact on Health
Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in your blood, necessary for building healthy cells. However, having high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often referred to as ‘bad’ cholesterol, can lead to health issues. Conversely, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, or ‘good’ cholesterol, helps remove LDL cholesterol from the bloodstream. Maintaining a balance between these types is essential for cardiovascular health.
