Cholesterol is produced by the liver and stored in the gall bladder to be released for the aid in digesting and absorbing nutrients from the foods we eat. Without it there, or if we block it from being reabsorbed through prescription drugs, we actually rob our bodies of the vital nutrients we need to survive! The body makes most cholesterol from processed and refined foods, mostly refined vegetable oils, refined sugars, and refined and processed flours. The less of these in the body, the fewer sources it has to make fat and cholesterol.
The liver produces bile to digest our foods. This bile is then reabsorbed by our intestines and colon as fat, or cholesterol and redistributed for other purposes within the body. On a daily basis this can amount to 20-25% production in the liver. Their liver produces about 1g daily and their diet can supply 200mg or more. For a 150 pound person (68kg) their body contains about 35g. Of this around 97% is reabsorbed and recycled.
Our cell membranes rely on cholesterol to build and maintain themselves. It keeps the membrane flexible and permeable. It also acts as a conductor for fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, and K. It is actually what your body uses along with sunshine to produce vitamin D. Good cholesterol also acts as an antioxidant in the body, sweeping away debris. (In the process it does become bad cholesterol, good reason to stay on a healthy and chemical free diet.)
Cholesterol is also important for the production of all the body’s hormones, nerve cell membranes and signals, for protecting the cell walls of plasma from harmful substances, and for chemical messages send along the bodies systems. The brain itself is the fattest part of most people bodies, being made mostly of cholesterol and fats.
The side effects of high cholesterol, or bad cholesterol can be life threatening. It’s not just the idea of the extra fat globule swimming around the body in the blood stream. As a natural process of the repairing of the body and tissues cholesterol is needed to help make repairs. A simple tear in on of our blood vessels and along with fibrin cells and cholesterol comes to the rescue to help plug up the hole.
Too much cholesterol in the body, or too much of the “bad” low density lipoprotein (LDL) and a person will form a clot in any narrow passage way or simple tear in their blood vessels. And with today’s high fat, highly processed diet, along with more and more people living a sedentary lifestyle, the more people are finding that they to have dangerous levels of cholesterol.
“Good” High density lipoprotein (HDL) counteracts the LDL.
The answer is a product called Hypercet Cholesterol Formula. This natural based formula along with dietary changes and more aerobic exercise and you too can avoid the complications of taking highly toxic prescription drugs for a cholesterol problem.
