High amounts of cholesterol in the blood that can impede blood flow, increasing risk for cardiovascular events.
High cholesterol occurs when there is an excessive amount of cholesterol, a fatty substance, in the blood. It is typically asymptomatic but can increase the risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular problems over time. Cholesterol is carried through the blood by lipoproteins: low-density lipoprotein (LDL), often called “bad” cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL), known as “good” cholesterol. High levels of LDL can lead to the buildup of plaque in the arteries, narrowing them and restricting blood flow. Common risk factors for high cholesterol include a diet high in saturated fats, lack of exercise, obesity, smoking, and a family history of the condition. Managing cholesterol often involves lifestyle changes such as adopting a heart-healthy diet, increasing physical activity, quitting smoking, and sometimes medications to lower LDL levels.
