The Dhaka Times Desk We don't know much about cholesterol. Cholesterol is a waxy type of fatty substance. It is beneficial for the body under normal conditions but if it is increased than the requirement, there is an anomaly. How do you know if cholesterol increases?
That's why it is necessary to monitor the cholesterol levels through regular blood tests. Only then will you know if the cholesterol level has increased.
Cholesterol has a few early symptoms. For example, sudden twitching of feet or fingers during sleep can also be an indication of high cholesterol. Such problems are more common at night. So we have to watch if there is any such problem at night.
Generally, high cholesterol levels affect the tendon ligaments of the feet. At this time, the arteries become narrow due to fat and it is difficult for blood to reach the lower part of the leg. Due to this, the legs become heavy and even a little walk causes severe pain. It may change the color of the toes even if the blood circulation is not normal. It can change the toenails.
The problem is that the body does not show any major symptoms until the level of cholesterol increases drastically. So you need to be careful if these symptoms appear. Moreover, it is very important to monitor cholesterol levels by doing blood tests occasionally.
That's why you have to reduce the amount of unhealthy fat in your daily diet along with exercise and eat healthy food.
Cholesterol is usually made by the liver, experts say. This substance mainly spreads to different parts of the body through lipoproteins. However, in normal conditions, cholesterol helps regulate hormones and create new cells.
When the body lacks protein and has too much fat, it combines with cholesterol to form 'low density lipoprotein' or LDL. Then cholesterol becomes very harmful for the body. Source: Anandabazar newspaper
