Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Cholesterol is one of the three major fats (lipids) found in the body. The three major fats are cholesterol, triglycerides and phospholipids. Cholesterol is a soft, waxy, fat substance found in all the cells of the body as well as in the blood stream. Because cholesterol is a fatty substance it does not dissolve in water and does not mix in the bloodstream. Therefore for cholesterol or other fats to travel through the body it needs to be attached to a special protein called an apolipoprotein. The combination of cholesterol and one of these special proteins is called a lipoprotein. There are two types of these lipoproteins in the body that we need to look at when dealing with cholesterol. One is called LDL or low density lipoprotein and the other one is called HDL or high density lipoprotein. Both LDL and HDL are important for healthy functioning bodies.
