Cholesterol, a fatlike substance, travels around in your bloodstream in high-density lipoproteins (HDL) and low-density lipoproteins (LDL):


HDL is known as “good cholesterol” because it picks up cholesterol and takes it back to the liver for disposal.


LDL carries cholesterol to the parts of your body that need it. It’s sometimes referred to as “bad cholesterol” because if you have too much of it in your bloodstream, it can cling to the walls of your arteries, eventually clogging them.

Narrowed or blocked arteries can prevent blood from reaching your heart, brain, or other organs. This can lead to stroke, heart attack, or even heart failure.


Your liver produces all the cholesterol you need. But you can also get a lot of cholesterol from food.


In general, high levels of HDL and low levels of LDL help reduce the risk of heart diseases.
