Cholesterol and Your Heart Kelly Strine BSN, S-FNP

What is Cholesterol? Cholesterol is a naturally occurring fat that is found in our blood. Our bodies produce approximately 75% of the cholesterol in our bodies. The other 25% comes from our diets. Cholesterol is only found in animal foods. The body uses cholesterol for nerve cell function, sex hormone production and the production of vitamin D from sunlight exposure

What are the Different Types? This is the GOOD cholesterol. This helps to stop the BAD cholesterol from sticking to the lining of our blood vessels. This type can be the BAD cholesterol when too much is in the blood, it can clog arteries leading to heart attack and stroke. Extra Calories stored in fat cells HDL LDL Triglycerides

Why is Cholesterol Important? Elevated cholesterol can lead to plaque formation of the walls of the blood vessels. This causes the blood vessels to harden and become stiff which can increase blood pressure. When the plaque forms on the blood vessels, it narrows the space that blood can flow through. When there is less blood flow, less oxygen reaches the tissues of the body. This can cause Heart Attack or Stoke!!!
