Did you know that Cholesterol is your Friend ? The body doesn’t make mistakes, there is no bad verses good cholesterol, so whether its HDL or LDL, this moleculer weight alcohol thats manufactured by the liver called Cholesterol, constitutes every single cell membrane in the human body.
When the body has damage due to improper eating, Inflammation, which is the immune systems natural response to damage occurs, therefore more cholesterol comes in to help just like a high crime area needs more ploice force.The police are NOT the problem, the crime is. More police force means, the need to reduce high crime.
Don’t shoot the messenger with a cholesterol lowering drug AKA a statin drug. Cholesterol is a precurser to seratonin the feel good hormone, cholesterol is NOT the villian. Ever wonder why so many people on Statins are on Anti-depressants!
Cholesterol has many Vital Roles in the body.
Cholesterol is produced by almost every cell in the body.
Cholesterol in cell membranes makes cells waterproof so there can be a different chemistry on the inside and the outside of the cell.
Cholesterol is nature’s repair substance, used to repair wounds, including tears and irritations in the arteries.
Many important hormones are made of cholesterol, including hormones that regulate mineral metabolism and blood sugar, hormones that help us deal with stress, and all the s*x hormones, such as testosterone, estrogen and progesterone.
Cholesterol is vital to the function of the brain and nervous system.
Cholesterol protects us against depression; it plays a role in the utilization of seratonin, the body’s “feel-good” chemical.
The bile salts, needed for the digestion of fats, are made from cholesterol.
Cholesterol is the precursor of vitamin D, which is formed by the action of ultra-violet (UV-B) light on cholesterol in the skin.
Cholesterol is a powerful antioxidant that protects us against free radicals and therefore, against cancer.
Cholesterol, especially LDL-cholesterol (the so-called bad cholesterol), helps fight infection.
Of course we don’t want to walk around with astronomically high levels of cholesterol because that’s an indication that there is a problem in the body.
The problem with elevated cholesterol levels, is an indication that the body needs more cholesterol because the body is under attack and there has been an assault on the cells due to improper eating, prescription drugs, stress that’s unmanaged, not eating enough organically grown fruits and vegetables, etc. 
Cholesterol -lowering drugs actually contribute to heart failure.
Avoid processed foods, especially foods containing hydrogenated vegetable oils and trans fats. The worst thing to do, is take away the cholesterol without fixing the problem, if we start taking the cops away in a high crime area without fixing the problem, we’re still gonna have crime. Are you finally understanding it now?
