Healthcare: The CHOLESTEROL by saheed2002: 1:05pm On Feb 01, 2015 |
Good Afternoon Dear Readers, My Topic Today centers on What your cholesterol level mean. So to start with, What Is Cholesterol? We may associate cholesterol with fatty foods, but most of the waxy substance is made by our own bodies. The liver produces 75% of the cholesterol that circulates in our blood. The other 25% comes from food. At normal levels, cholesterol actually plays an important role in helping cells do their jobs. But cholesterol levels are precariously high in more than 100 million Nigerians. Therefore, What Are The Symptoms of High Cholesterol? High cholesterol does not cause any symptoms. But it does cause damage deep within the body. Over time, too much cholesterol may lead to a buildup of plaque inside the arteries. Known as atherosclerosis, this condition narrows the space available for blood flow and can trigger heart disease. The good news is high cholesterol is simple to detect and there are many ways to bring it. |
