The Good and Bad of Cholesterol - Made Easy

In a world that is filled with a wealth of conflicting evidence online and various opinions from health professionals (or not professionals), it can be very difficult to determine which diet will be best for your goals - never mind which diet is best for your cholesterol levels.

There is conflicting science on specific foods and how they may or may not have an impact on your health, but what we can all agree on is that high cholesterol levels are correlated to atherosclerosis and heart disease.

When it comes to cholesterol, it is important to understand that cholesterol itself is not a bad thing. However, too much cholesterol in the body does have strong correlations to chronic diseases.

Cholesterol is, by definition, a type of protein that the body already creates. In fact, the body creates two types of cholesterol - these are HDL’s and LDL’s.

You may have heard that there are good and bad cholesterols, but it is important to reinforce the idea that there is not necessarily a bad cholesterol, but too much of anything could be harmful to your health.
