00:00When you hear high cholesterol, do you feel worried?
00:03Many older adults think it always means danger.
00:06But here's the truth.
00:08Not all cholesterol is bad.
00:09Some is even essential for your body.
00:12Cholesterol is like a building block.
00:15Your body uses it to make hormones, vitamin D, and protect your cells.
00:19Without cholesterol, your body couldn't work properly.
00:23Here's the key difference.
00:24HDL is good cholesterol.
00:26It helps clean your arteries.
00:28LDL is bad cholesterol.
00:30Too much can clog your blood vessels.
00:32It's not about removing cholesterol.
00:35It's about balance.
00:37When LDL is too high, fat builds up in blood vessels, making them narrow.
00:41That's why doctors talk about heart attack or stroke risk.
00:45But remember, it's a signal for prevention.
00:48The good news is you have control.
00:51Eat more fiber, fruits, and vegetables.
00:54Limit fried or processed foods.
00:56Walk, stretch, or dance a little each day.
00:58Follow your doctor's advice on checkups and medicine if needed.
01:03High cholesterol doesn't mean you've failed.
01:06It's simply your body asking for care.
01:08With balance and prevention, you can protect your heart and enjoy many healthy years ahead.
