Preface The eternal question; whether cholesterol is good or bad, has bugged people for long now. Cholesterol, as a name, spells doom for the masses. It is inevitably labelled as the villain, when it can safely play the part of the hero. The mystery will slowly yet conclusively unfold. The Charge sheet Cholesterol is a soft, fat-like, waxy substance found in the bloodstream and in all your body cells. It is an important part of a healthy body because it's used for producing cell membranes and some hormones, and serves other bodily functions. But a high level of cholesterol in the blood, called Hypercholesterolemia, is a major risk factor for coronary heart disease, which leads to a heart attack. It's also a risk factor for a stroke. |
