Types of Cholesterol
Cholesterol is transported in the bloodstream by lipoproteins, which are classified into:
Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) – Often referred to as "bad cholesterol," high levels of LDL can lead to the buildup of fatty deposits in arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) – Known as "good cholesterol," HDL helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream, transporting it to the liver for elimination.
Triglycerides – Though not cholesterol, these are another type of fat in the blood. High levels can also contribute to cardiovascular risks.
