Two cholesterols, two very different impacts
Cholesterol is a waxy substance that’s naturally made by all animals. It helps your body make vitamin D, sex hormones and bile acids, which digest fat and absorb nutrients. Cholesterol’s made by your liver, and you also get a small amount of it from animal products like egg yolks, fatty meat, cheese and butter. There are two main kinds of cholesterol: ‘good’ HDL cholesterol and ‘bad’ LDL cholesterol.
