8. There is no thing as good
cholesterol or bad cholesterol.
Cholesterol is just cholesterol.
HDL and LDL are its
transporters and they are
known as lipoproteins.
9. Now, while there is no
good cholesterol and bad
cholesterol, you do have
good LDL/HDL and bad
LDL/HDL
10. HDL
• High density lipoproteins
• Good HDL
• Pick up cholesterol from blood & take
them to liver to remove from body
LDL
• Low density lipoproteins
• Bad LDL
• Carry more cholesterol & help them get
deposited on the walls of arteries
11. ONLY THESE VALUES ARE
IMPORTANT ?
NO!!!!
COMBINE WITH THE RISK FACTORS….
12. Now, the next obvious
question is: how do you raise
your HDL and keep your LDL
particles large and fluffy?
13. It's pretty simple. HDL goes
up when you eat saturated fat
- (i.e. the very thing you've
been warned against).
14. But take note: I'm
referring to natural fat, not the
man-made trans-fats. This is
VERY important distinction.
18. EFFECTS OF OUR BODY
• Cell walls and nerve fibers can not occur

• Cholesterol is a hormone produced by our
body as protective against stress.
• Cholesterol is the main ingredient for brain
cells and nerve systems.
