Cholesterol, it's worth knowing!

First and foremost, it is important to emphasize that talking about "good" and "bad" cholesterol is merely a simplification. In reality, both LDL and HDL cholesterol are necessary for our bodies to fight the true enemy of our health - chronic inflammation.

Actions you can take to protect yourself from chronic inflammation:

• Healthy diet - avoid processed foods and consume products rich in protein and unsaturated omega-3 fatty acids.
• Good heart health - incorporate regular cardiovascular exercises such as brisk walking, jogging, or cycling. They are crucial for maintaining a healthy heart.
• Maintaining a proper body weight - achieving and maintaining the appropriate weight is important for health and reducing inflammation.
• High intake of polyphenols - consume foods rich in polyphenols, such as vegetables, fruits, and herbs.
• Proper oxygenation - it is important to regularly supply your body with an adequate amount of oxygen through deep breathing and physical activity.
• Stress reduction - stress can lead to inflammation, so it is important to practice relaxation techniques, meditation, or yoga to reduce stress levels.
• Sufficient sleep and quality rest - sleep is incredibly important for health as it allows the body to regenerate and repair damage.
• Antioxidant supplementation - you may consider supplementing with antioxidants to support your body in fighting free radicals and inflammation.

Taking care of these elements will help protect you from inflammation and maintain a healthy cholesterol level.
