The current review article discusses several
conditions linked to high cholesterol, including their causes, diagnoses, and
treatments. Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death
worldwide, and hypercholesterolemia is a standalone risk factor for the
condition. Numerous cardiovascular illnesses (CVDs) and disorders, including
myocardial infarction, hypertension, peripheral vascular diseases, and coronary
heart diseases, were highlighted in this article. Low density lipoprotein (LDL)
is the key factor in the majority of CVDs. It adheres to fatty deposits and
forms plaques inside artery lumen, preventing the heart and other body organs
from receiving enough blood and oxygen. Cardiomyopathies and dyslipidemias are
the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in men and place a
considerable health cost on society. Age, hypertension, obesity-induced blood
pressure, and a rise in plasma cholesterol are all factors that raise the risk
of coronary heart disease (CHD). Calorie intake must be controlled, meal
composition must be changed, a natural cycle must be established, and circadian
timeliness must be maintained in order to live a healthy life. To lower the
risks of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, try to go vegetarian and always
consume traditional plant-based diets and herbal remedies. Exercise yoga and
aerobics every day to stay physically healthy, and have your blood pressure,
blood sugar, and cholesterol levels checked on a regular basis. Follow your
family doctor’s recommendations for managing high cholesterol risks and diagnosing CVD,
obtain a lipid profile, take the recommended medications, maintain composure,
and adopt a positive outlook for a long and healthy life.
