  2. What is Cholesterol? Types, Sources, and Roles in the Body Types of Cholesterol Sources of Cholesterol Cholesterol exists in two primary forms: low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). LDL is often called "bad cholesterol" because high levels can lead to plaque buildup in arteries. HDL, on the other hand, is known as "good cholesterol" because it helps remove LDL from the bloodstream. We obtain cholesterol from two sources: our diet and our bodies. Dietary cholesterol is found in animal products like meat, poultry, and eggs. Our liver also produces cholesterol to meet the body's needs for cell membrane formation, hormone production, and vitamin D synthesis.

  3. The Dangers of High Cholesterol: Cardiovascular Risks and Complications Heart Disease Atherosclerosis High cholesterol leads to plaque buildup in arteries, narrowing the space for blood flow. This increases the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and peripheral artery disease. Atherosclerosis is the hardening and narrowing of arteries caused by plaque buildup. This can lead to various complications, including heart disease, stroke, and peripheral artery disease.

  4. Identifying High Cholesterol: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Testing Symptoms High cholesterol often has no noticeable symptoms in its early stages. However, some individuals may experience chest pain, shortness of breath, or fatigue. Diagnosis A doctor will diagnose high cholesterol based on a blood test that measures LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol levels. Testing Routine cholesterol screening is recommended for adults over 20 years of age. Frequency of testing varies depending on individual risk factors.

  5. Lifestyle Modifications: Diet, Exercise, and Weight Management Diet 1 Reduce saturated and trans fats found in animal products and processed foods. Increase fiber intake through fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Exercise 2 Engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week. This can help lower LDL and raise HDL levels. Weight Management 3 Maintain a healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise. Even a small weight loss can significantly improve cholesterol levels.

  6. Pharmacological Treatments: Statins and Other Cholesterol-Lowering Medications Statins 1 Most commonly prescribed. Block an enzyme in the liver that produces cholesterol. Bile Acid Sequestrants 2 Bind to bile acids in the gut, reducing cholesterol absorption. Niacin 3 Reduces LDL and increases HDL levels, but can have side effects. Fibrates 4 Reduce triglycerides and increase HDL levels. Often used in combination with statins.

  7.
