hospitals 3 Things you want to know about Cholesterol by: Lee Cummings
You wouldn't judge a book by its cover, would you? You would want to open the book and read part of it to get a better idea about what is going on, right? Well, judging a book by its cover is what happens when you look at LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and decide that this is the only - or even the best indicator of heart disease. Worse yet, you are told you MUST lower your LDL cholesterol level. #1 Naturally produced by the body, cholesterol is needed for a variety of functions.-1 Your body uses cholesterol to make testosterone and other essential hormones and is one of the best health and youth enhancing strategies for aging men and women. -2 As you age your body naturally starts to lose its ability to produce as much testosterone and you start to lose energy, strength, sexual desire and sexual capacity.-2 #2 Because the fact is cholesterol alone is not THE indicator of heart disease. Cholesterol which has been oxidized is the problem. Oxidation of cholesterol is the more specific problem which would enable the cholesterol to become "sticky" and start to form plaque in the walls of the arteries.-3 We have all seen an apple cut open and watch as it turns brown - this is oxidation. Your body will oxidize on the inside unless steps are taken to help prevent this. One can keep oxidation of cholesterol in check by incorporating plenty of anti-oxidants in your consumption of food and supplements.-1, 3 A few of the most powerful anti-oxidants are:
Low cost, safe and proven food sources high in omega 3's and the right fats to help keep your cholesterol levels in balance-1, 3
These are better, safe, proven and natural ways to prevent cholesterol from becoming a problem. A diet heavy in grains and processed foods will actually raise your blood cholesterol levels more than foods which contain cholesterol. A diet low in cholesterol will do you little if anything health wise -4 Focusing on raising your HDL cholesterol levels because as you raise your good cholesterol it decreases the concern about your LDL levels of cholesterol and gives you a better total cholesterol profile. -5 Some of the best ways to improve your "Good" or HDL cholesterol is through:
There is a big difference between the cholesterol your Body produces and dietary cholesterol from the food you eat. #3 Two factors which are of greater concern and are better indicators of heart disease are -3 1. A measure of inflammation in the blood stream called C-reactive protein 2. An amino acid produced by the body called homocysteine. High levels of C-reactive protein and high levels of homocysteine are better leading indicators and also contribute to the formation of plaque in the blood vessels leading to heart disease -3 As reported in the July, 2003 issue of JAMA, a study was conducted which showed that a diet high in plant sterols, fiber and almonds was clearly the better way to reduce cholesterol and heart disease over statin drugs.-8 And finally … Policosanol – An organic plant alcohol from sugar cane is one of the best natural ways to reduce bad cholesterol levels-7 Naturally, as you realize the power of these proven ways to prevent cholesterol from becoming a problem, you will find yourself taking action.
