🌠*Hypothyroidism and Cholesterol*🌠 Here we go! Let’s take a look at how hypothyroidism is connected to cholesterol. We all know hypothyroidism can cause cholesterol problems, but the connection between the thyroid and cholesterol in the body is quite a complex set of biochemical interactions. But all the Cholestero-Low followers are super smart so let’s give it a go at explaining it in this reel! Your thyroid gland, is a gland that regulates metabolism. If one’s thyroid is under active, AKA hypothyroidism, it can lead to fatigue, weight gain and issues with cholesterol amongst other things. So, hypothyroidism is when there is a smaller amount of the hormone thyroxine flowing through the body. It is managed by taking a manufactured prescribed form of thyroxine.

So why is our ‘good’ cholesterol good? 😇 Hey Everyone! Happy August! 😎(Bit late I know, I took a little break from posting!) Our good cholesterol brings cholesterol to the liver to get excreted, so that’s why we want that number to be higher! Certain foods helps with this •fatty fish like mackerel, salmon •Olive oil, avocados •oats (and of course Cholestero-Low!) 🍓❤️🍋 Some of these will boost your good cholesterol, and some of these lower your bad cholesterol thereby improving your bad to good cholesterol ratio!

Hey Everyone! Another commonly asked question.. Is cholesterol genetic ? The answer is both black and white but also grey. Some is us have a condition called Familial Hypercholesterolaemia, which is inherited from one or both of our parents and absolutely needs to be treated by medication and so yes this is strictly ‘genetric’. The rest of us may be predisposed to having high cholesterol, or be at higher risk of having high cholesterol if we eat certain foods for eg, for a long period of time. For some of its, it can be quite difficult to lower our cholesterol even if we make positive changes to our lifestyle. And there is nothing wrong with being on or needing medication for cholesterol if or when that time arises. 😊
