Like most things in life too much can be a bad thing; as cholesterol builds up in our blood and attaches to arteries it can lead to a higher risk of coronary artery disease. Luckily our body has ways of moving cholesterol around; one such carrier is called high density lipoprotein and is often termed \"good\" cholesterol.

Cholesterol is vital to the production of many hormones, vitamin D and the bile acids that help to digest fat.

The result is coronary heart disease. If not enough oxygen-rich blood reaches the heart, you may experience chest pain called angina. If the blood supply to a portion of the heart is completely cut off, the result is a heart attack due to the sudden closure from a blood clot forming on top of a previous narrowing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKeeping your cholesterol in check.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCholesterol can be both good and bad, so it's important to learn what bad cholesterol is and how it affects your health.
