*HIGH CHOLESTEROL* Cholesterol is both good and bad. At normal levels, it is an essential substance for the body. However, if concentrations in the blood get too high, it becomes a silent danger that puts people at risk of heart attack.
Cholesterol is present in every cell of the body and has important natural functions when it comes to digesting foods, producing hormones, and generating vitamin D. The body produces it, but people also consume it in food. It is waxy and fat-like in appearance.
Reducing the intake of fat in the diet and exercise helps to manage cholesterol levels. In particular, it is helpful to limit foods that contain:

Cholesterol: This is present in animal foods, meat, and cheese.

Saturated fat: This occurs in some meats, dairy products, chocolate, baked goods, deep-fried, and processed foods.

Trans fats: This occurs in some fried and processed foods.
Excess weight or obesity can also lead to higher blood LDL levels. Genetic factors can contribute to high cholesterol. People with the inherited condition familial hypercholesterolemia have very high LDL levels.

diabetes

liver or kidney disease
