      Cholesterol are classified into two forms:-
      -                      Good cholesterol
      -                      Bad cholesterol
      Most cholesterol is not dietary in origin, rather it is synthesized internally. They are present in higher concentrations in tissue which either produce more or have more densely packed membranes, examples:-
      -                      The liver
      -                      Spinal cord
      -                      And atheroma
      Moreso, they play a central role in many biochemical processes. The body uses it in a number of ways namely:-
      -                      In the production of bile
      -                      In the production of acids
      -                      Helps I n the digestion of fat in the body
      -                      It is important to health.
      However, too much cholesterol in the body can lead to narrowing and blockage of the arteries especially those that feed the heart and can keep it healthy.
