1. ldl cholesterol

   Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is one of the five major groups of lipoprotein that transport all fat molecules around the body in extracellular water. These groups, from least dense to most dense, are chylomicrons (aka ULDL by the overall density naming convention), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), intermediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). LDL delivers fat molecules to cells. LDL is involved in atherosclerosis, a process in which it is oxidized within the walls of arteries.

1. ldl cholesterol

   LDL cholesterol, short for Low-Density Lipoprotein cholesterol, is often referred to as 'bad cholesterol'. It is a type of blood fat that, in high levels, can build up in the walls of your arteries and form plaques, leading to atherosclerosis, a form of heart disease. Increased levels of LDL cholesterol can lead to serious health issues like heart attack and stroke. It gets its nickname as 'bad cholesterol' as it contributes to the fatty build-ups in the arteries.

Examples of ldl cholesterol in a Sentence

1. Kaleigh McMordie:

   Frozen breakfast pastries consist of several forms of highly processed carbohydrates and sugar with no real nutritional value, not to mention all the chemical preservatives. Regular intake of these kinds of highly processed foods— high in refined white flour, refined sugar and high fructose corn syrup — is associated with a poor lipid profile, high triglyceride and LDL cholesterol levels in the blood, caused by high refined carb intake, is a major risk factor for heart disease. Skip the toaster pastries and opt for a breakfast that has a balance of healthy fat, protein, and carbohydrates from whole grains or fruit.

2. Steven Nissen:

   What counts is how much you can lower LDL cholesterol.

3. Michael Orlich:

   In our Adventist Health Study-2 people tended to have lower blood pressures, lower LDL cholesterol, less prevalence of the metabolic syndrome, and less diabetes, broadly defined vegetarians, which includes the pesco - and the semi-vegetarian, have a lower risk of colorectal cancer by about 22 %. Pesco-vegetarians have a lower risk for prostate cancer.

4. Luke Laffin:

   The basics are still very important, and include not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, a diet of moderation, like fruits and vegetables, and regular exercise. I also would encourage you to seek the opinion of your regular physician or a cardiologist about more aggressive modification and treatment of risk factors, such as elevated LDL cholesterol and hypertension, ask his or her opinion about targeting even lower LDL cholesterol levels than they normally would in a person with your similar traditional risk factor profile, but without elevated Lp(a).

5. Frank Hu:

   High LDL cholesterol is a much more powerful and important risk factor for cardiovascular disease than triglyceride levels, so while both sides were quite effective in short-term glycemic control, I think the main issue is the potential long-term effects of keto on cardiovascular disease.
