High Cholesterol

Posted in Nutrition on August 17th, 2009 by Health & Fitness Guru – 1 Comment

Maybe you think of cholesterol as a kind of evil plug.  The usual story goes like this.

You eat too much cholesterol or animal fat, which is converted to cholesterol in your body, the cholesterol clogs your coronary arteries, and blood and oxygen can’t get through to your heart, causing a heart attack.

The idea is that if you lower your cholesterol, all will be well.
