A clear explanation of the difference between the two types of cholesterol and why it matters 😮

I didn't know either one, was low or high, thanks Dr. Tracey for informing us of this to track our blood pressure

Huh, I always thought it was the other way around. I learned what it actually is today 😊

I thought it was the density of the LDL which is of most concern, not actually the LDL itself?

more low density fat (lipo) protein cholesterol = plaque that narrows available blood flow
more high density fat protein cholesterol = absorbs extra total cholestrol, taken to liver for filtering out of the body.


is this an accurate paraphrasing?

I wish doctors would stop forcing people to take cholesterol meds

But why does it matter when it comes to mental health? My general anxiety disorder/panic attacks don’t really give a 🐀’s ass if my cholesterol is off. Thank u for the info though.
