Cholesterol management plays an important role in reducing cardiovascular disease, heart attacks, and strokes. By ensuring your levels are within the healthy range, you safeguard your health and reduce the risk of developing and/or worsening health conditions. High-density lipoprotein (HDL), which is often referred to as the ‘good’ type of cholesterol, helps to eliminate excess cholesterol from the body, while low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or ‘bad’ cholesterol, can cause plaque to develop on the arteries, which can lead to heart and stroke complications. By ensuring that levels are balanced, you can reduce the likelihood of these health problems occurring.
