What Is LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein)?<\/div>\n
LDL cholesterol is known as the “bad” cholesterol because it builds up in the walls of your blood vessels, increasing your risk of heart attack or stroke.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Cholesterol, on the other hand, isn’t entirely bad. Your body must safeguard its neurons and produce healthy cells and hormones.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Risks of High LDL Cholesterol<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Higher level of LDL cholesterol levels can invite numerous health problems including:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
1. Coronary artery disease<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Peripheral artery disease<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. Heart disease<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
4. Chest pain<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5. Heart Stroke<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Most of the cholesterol in your body is LDL. The rest is high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or \u201cgood\u201d cholesterol. HDL takes LDL to your liver, where it\u2019s flushed out of your body. High HDL levels might protect against heart attacks and strokes.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Lowering High LDL Cholesterol<\/div>\n
Your doctor will devise a plan of lifestyle changes and\/or medication to reduce your cholesterol levels and overall risk of a heart problem. Your strategy could include.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Loss of weight.<\/div>\n
Even a 5 to 10-pound weight loss can improve your cholesterol levels.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Quitting tobacco.<\/div>\n
If you’re having trouble quitting smoking, your doctor can help you find the right programme for you.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Medication.<\/div>\n
Some medications, such as statins, aid in preventing your body from producing cholesterol. Another medication reduces the amount of cholesterol your body absorbs from the food you eat. If you are unable to take statins or have a severe form of high cholesterol, you may be given inhibitor shots. These medications assist your liver in removing more LDL from your blood.<\/div>\n
