Cholesterol
High cholesterol works in silence, which makes it difficult to be aware
of its dangers. Even if you feel perfectly healthy, over time high cholesterol
can slowly damage the walls of your blood vessels with no apparent symptoms.
Your doctor can determine your cholesterol levels with a simple blood test.
Your total cholesterol includes LDL and HDL cholesterol.
LDL cholesterol is known as the "bad" cholesterol because it builds
up in the walls of your arteries, forming plaque. This plaque restricts
blood flow to your heart and brain, which increases your chances of having
a heart attack or stroke.
HDL cholesterol is called the "good" cholesterol because it helps
your body get rid of the harmful LDL cholesterol. Higher HDL cholesterol
helps reduce your risk of heart disease.
Triglycerides are another type of fat in your blood that can contribute
to hardening of the arteries.
Zocor works by lowering your LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, while raising
the levels of HDL cholesterol in your bloodstream.
In the past several years, the medical community has learned more about
cholesterol's role in heart disease and stroke, as well as in diabetes.
But most importantly, one of the current benefits of Zocor its ability to
reduce heart attack and stroke in people who have heart disease or diabetes
across a wide range of cholesterol levelshas been proven by the Heart Protection
Study. |
