But he could be increased in number due to the intake of foods derived from animal fats, eggs and similar junk food. Excessive cholesterol in the body will be buried in the walls of blood vessels and cause a condition called atherosclerosis, which is narrowing or hardening of the arteries. This condition is a precursor of heart disease and stroke.

The division cholesterol outlined in the public health field we know as the bad cholesterol, the good cholesterol, and also trigeserid. Good cholesterol or medical term HDL (High Density Cholesterol) has the function to remove excess cholesterol from cells and artery walls and carry cholesterol back to the liver for disposal. While LDL cholesterol (Low Density Cholesterol) carry cholesterol from the liver and released into the blood vessel wall, may cause the accumulation / plaque on the walls of blood vessels that can cause constriction of blood vessels.
