Low cholesterol can also be bad

While everyone is concerned about his high cholesterol there are people who, however, are below normal.
Until recently it was a matter almost of joy.
“Great, so there is risk of cardiovascular disease.”
researchers as Professor Frank Sacks of Harvarddespués years of studies in these patients has reached very different conclusions.

Thus the view that if a patient is between 160 and 190 cholesterol problem but it really is not if cholesterol is too low (eg 120) would have to raise it.

Also says that most of the cholesterol level is basic relationship or ratio between good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. Often people who have very low cholesterol also have very low good cholesterol thus have a high cardiovascular risk.

Should be avoided because those diets with no fat or very low levels.

Consuming olive oil is very convenient because as it is monounsaturated fat helps to lower high levels of LDL cholesterol and change does not reduce HDL cholesterol.

Another problem is that people with cholesterol too low are also twice as likely to suffer a brain hemorrhage. One explanation could be that the fragile membranes covering the brain require a minimum level of cholesterol did not weaken and break.

There would also be more likely to suffer from depression and that low cholesterol levels promote low levels of serotonin which is a basic substance of the brain to have a good mood and a good ability to relax.

The general opinion is that with a cholesterol level below 160 should always consult with your doctor to review your diet and try to see if there is another cause of the problem.
