Not all fat is bad… same goes with cholesterol, which is essential for a healthy human being, only when it is available in a balanced amount. Cholesterol is produced by the liver and serves as a building block for various substances such as cell membranes, hormones like estrogen, testosterone and adrenal hormones and produce bile acids, which are helpful in the digestion system.

When the cholesterol is available at excessively high or low levels, it can result in cholesterol disorders such as;

• Hyperlipidaemia – This indicates that the patient has an unusually high level of fat (lipids) in the blood. High cholesterol can also result in a number of health problems, including heart attack and stroke.
• Hypolipidemia: This is a situation when the cholesterol level is at an unusually low level. Low blood cholesterol can lead to various risks such as haemorrhagic stroke, depression and anxiety.
