Teas for Cholesterol



Teas for Cholesterol

Drinking some herbal teas may assist in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels.

Cholesterol is a type of fat and whilst needed for the body,an excess amount of it can cause many health problems, such as heart disease. They are proteins, responsible for transporting cholesterol around in the blood. There are two main types of cholesterols, the High-Density Lipids (HDL) and Low-Density Lipids (LDL). HDL is known as the healthy cholesterol (the good kind). HDL helps to keep cholesterol from building up in the arteries by transporting cholesterol from the arteries back to the liver for disposal. LDL known as the unhealthy cholesterol (the bad kind) is the main cause for cholesterol blockage and build-up.

Research suggesting that herbal teas lower LDL may take some time but the results can be promising. You may not see the effects of the tea on your cholesterol for weeks or months, but some claim that they noticed a drop in blood sugar in less than an hour. Changing the cholesterol is mostly about changing the lifestyle. Fortunately, these teas can certainly be a healthy addition to your day.
