Hyperlipidemia: Generally, your body contains bad cholesterol-low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and good cholesterol-high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Good cholesterol is good for our heart and helps in reducing the LDL in our body, whereas an excess of bad cholesterol (LDL) leads to the risk of heart diseases like heart attack and stroke. The high amount of bad cholesterol in the blood is known as hyperlipidemia, which results in narrow and clogged arteries. The blockage is most often caused by fat buildup and other substances, resulting in the formation of plaque in the arteries that feed the heart (coronary arteries). Eating high-fat or high-cholesterol-containing foods and drinks and genetic factors are the primary causes of high cholesterol.
