Cholesterol Treatment: Final Thoughts
Cholesterol is not a bad thing -- it serves an important purpose in keeping the body healthy. Unfortunately, some people who have
high cholesterol choose to ignore it because there are no obvious symptoms. Having high levels of cholesterol for a long time can greatly increase your risk of serious medical problems, like
heart disease,
stroke,
atherosclerosis, and other heart and blood vessel problems.
Even though lowering cholesterol can be a challenge, commitment and care from you and your healthcare providers can make a difference. Whatever the approach you take to treating cholesterol, making a lifelong commitment to lower your high cholesterol is a worthy goal.
