Video: What is cholesterol?
This 3 minute animation explains why too much cholesterol is harmful for our health and how we can avoid it or treat it. We study how cholesterol is normally produced by the liver and also taken in via food. This is necessary for the digestion and to produce certain hormons. LDL and HDL are 2 types of lipoproteins which carry cholesterol and enter the blood circulation. Too much LDL can narrow arteries and result in arteriosclerosis.
