High cholesterol or high body fat, sometimes referred to as dyslipidaemia, is the term used to describe unhealthful blood levels of one or more lipids (fats). The “bad” kind of cholesterol is referred to as LDL. That’s because it can accumulate and create clumps or plaque to grow on the artery walls. A heart attack can be brought on by having too much plaque in your heart’s arteries. The calories you consume which don’t immediately burn will produce triglycerides. In fat cells, triglycerides are stored. When you require them, they are released as energy. However, if you consume more calories than you expend, triglycerides may accumulate in your body.
