WHAT IS HIGH CHOLESTEROL ?

Cholesterol is a lipid that plays vital role in formation of  certain hormones, cell membranes and vitamin-D. It water insoluble so it require lipoproteins for transportation in body. Lipoproteins are made from proteins and fats. There are two types of lipoprotein LDL(Low density lipoprotein) and HDL(high density lipoprotein). LDL cholesterol is carried by LDLs.

If there is increase in the level of LDL cholesterol than diagnosis is of High Cholesterol in the individual. Untreated High Cholesterol leads to many health conditions like stroke , heart attack etc.

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF HIGH CHOLESTEROL ?

  • Smoking and Tobacco use : Smoking elevates the level of LDL ( bad cholesterol ) and lowers the levels of HDL ( good cholesterol ).
  • Stress : Stress tends to trigger hormonal changes that increase the production of cholesterol in the body.
  • No Physical activities : Physical exercise helps to improves the cholesterol numbers but sitting for too long or not doing physical activities lead to decrease in the production of Good cholesterol (HDL ).
  • Diet : Consumption of too much saturated fats reduce the ability of liver to remove excess cholesterol leading to cholesterol built up in blood.
  • Alcohol abuse : Too much alcohol intake leads to increase total cholesterol in the body.

WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF HIGH CHOLESTEROL ?

High levels of cholesterol does not cause any symptoms in most individuals. Individual won’t start  feeling any symptoms until high cholesterol causes other problems. Some common symptoms are :

  • Depression
  • Poor appetite
  • Loose stools
  • Heart pain
  • Weight gain
  • Fatigue

DISEASES LINKED TO HIGH CHOLESTEROL :

With passage of time High cholesterol leads to buildup of plaque in the blood vessels. The longer high cholesterol goes untreated the bigger the plaque gets which leads to development of other medical conditions :

  • Coronary artery disease (CAD) : It happens when the plaque built-up in coronary arteries due to High cholesterol. Coronary arteries carry blood to the heart. When heart does not get enough blood due to plaque built-up , it gets weaker and stops proper functioning.
