Cholesterol support Nutritive Support to Help: Sustain cardiovascular health Protect circulatory system Item No. 12580 What is Cholesterol? Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance found in all parts of the body. This includes the nervous system, skin, muscle, liver, intestines, and heart. It is made by the body and can also be ingested from animal products in the diet. Cholesterol is manufactured in the liver for normal body functions, including the production of hormones, cell membranes, digestive juices, and vitamin D. It is transported in the blood throughout the body. In foods, cholesterol is found in eggs, dairy products, meat, and poultry. Foods of plant origin (vegetables, fruits, grains, cereals, nuts, and seeds) contain no cholesterol. Cholesterol and Cardiovascular Health Your body needs a constant supply of oxygen to function normally. The cardiovascular system consists of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels, and the blood that circulates through them. The heart and circulatory system make up your cardiovascular system and work in tandem with respiratory and other systems. Your heart works as a pump that pushes blood to the organs, tissues, and cells of your body. Blood delivers oxygen and nutrients to every cell and removes the carbon dioxide and waste products made by those cells.
Cholesterol deposits can build in the cardiovascular system causing the delicate balance between the heart, blood flow, and respiration to be affected.
Excessive cholesterol and triglycerides in the body can harm the heart, and damage the circulatory system which can negatively impact the entire body. Getting plenty of exercise, eating a nutritious diet, maintaining healthy cholesterol levels and a healthy weight, and getting regular medical checkups are the best ways to stay healthy and avoid long-term health problems.
