   It is often heard that cholesterol is not good for our bodies. We need to consume less fatty products to ensure a healthy heart. So what is Cholesterol? It is a fatty substance that is present in the blood and travels along the bloodstream in the form of HDL or LDL. HDL or High-Density Lipoproteins are considered “good cholesterol” because it brings excess cholesterol back to the liver for removal. While LDL or Low-Density Lipoproteins are considered “bad cholesterol” as it carries cholesterol to other parts of the body. Too much of LDL sticks to the bloodstream eventually clogging them leading to heart problems. Narrowed or blocked arteries can prevent the blood from reaching the heart, brain, and other organs leading to a heart attack , stroke, or heart failure. High amounts of cholesterol enter the body from food. Studies reveal that high HDL and low LDL levels help reduce the risk of heart disease . What are the sources of cholesterol in your diet? Your di...
