Cholesterol Check

Cholesterol is a type of lipid (fat) produced in our body. In addition, it is present in foods of animal origin (meat, milk, eggs, etc.). In our body, it performs essential functions, such as hormone production and vitamin D. However, excess cholesterol in the blood is harmful and increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease. In the blood, there are two types of cholesterol:

• LDL cholesterol: known as "bad", which deposits in the arteries and leads to its obstruction;
• HDL cholesterol: known as "good", removes excess cholesterol from the arteries, preventing its deposit and reducing the formation of grease plaque.

The maximum reference value for total cholesterol is 190mg / ml. Controlling cholesterol values is essential for healthy living.
