What is Cholesterol?

Cholesterol is a lipid (fat) which is produced by the liver. Cholesterol is vital for normal body function. Every cell in our body has cholesterol in its outer layer.

Cholesterol is a waxy steroid and is transported in the blood plasma of all animals. It is the main sterol synthesized by animals - small amounts are also synthesized in plants and fungi. A sterol is a steroid sub-group.

The word "cholesterol" comes from the Greek word chole, meaning "bile", and the Greek word stereos, meaning "solid, stiff".

What are the functions of cholesterol?

Below is a list of the important functions of cholesterol:

• It builds and maintains cell membranes.³
• It is essential for determining which molecules can pass into the cell and which cannot (cell membrane permeability).
• It is involved in the production of sex hormones (androgens and estrogens).³
• It is essential for the production of hormones released by the adrenal glands
• It aids in the production of bile^.
• It is important for the metabolism of fat soluble vitamins, including vitamins A, D, E, and K.
• It insulates nerve fibers.

How cholesterol is transported in the blood

Cholesterol is carried in the blood by molecules called lipoproteins. A lipoprotein is any complex or compound containing both lipid (fat) and protein. The three main types are:⁵

·    LDL (low density lipoprotein) - people often refer to it as bad cholesterol. LDL carries cholesterol from the liver to cells. If too much is carried (too much for the cells to use) there can be a harmful buildup of LDL.

·   HDL (high density lipoprotein) - people often refer to it as good cholesterol. Experts say HDL prevents arterial disease. HDL does the opposite of LDL - HDL takes the cholesterol away from the cells and back to the liver. In the liver it is either broken down or expelled from the body as waste.

·   Triglycerides - these are the chemical forms in which most fat exists in the body, as well as in food. They are present in blood plasma. Triglycerides, in association with cholesterol, form the plasma lipids (blood fat).Triglycerides in plasma originate either from fats in our food, or are made in the body from other energy sources, such as carbohydrates. Calories we consume but are not used immediately by our tissues are converted into triglycerides and stored in fat cells.

Dangers of high cholesterol levels

High cholesterol levels can cause:

·   Atherosclerosis - narrowing of the arteries.⁸

·   Higher coronary heart disease risk - an abnormality of the arteries that supply blood and oxygen to the heart.⁹

·   Heart attack - occurs when the supply of blood and oxygen to an area of heart muscle is blocked, usually by a clot in a coronary artery. This causes your heart muscle to die.¹⁰

·    Angina - chest pain or discomfort that occurs when your heart muscle does not get enough blood.¹¹

·    Stroke and mini-stroke - occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery or vein, interrupting the flow to an area of the brain. Can also occur when a blood vessel breaks. Brain cells begin to die.¹²

·    If both blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels are high, the risk of developing coronary heart disease rises significantly.

What causes high cholesterol ?

Lifestyle causes

§Sedentary lifestyle - Sitting/lying down for long hours, Lack of exercise have significantly higher levels of LDL (bad cholesterol) and lower levels of HDL (good cholesterol).

· Body-weight (Obesity) - people who are overweight/obese are much more likely to have higher LDL levels and lower HDL levels, as they put extra load on the heart.

· Nutrition (Diet) - High calorie diet especially diet rich in oils and fats increase bad cholesterol & Triglycerides which are dangerous to blood vessels of the heart.

· Smoking - this can have quite a considerable effect on LDL levels.

· Alcohol - people who consume too much alcohol regularly, generally have much higher levels of LDL and much lower levels of HDL

· Stress : Stress also has quite considerable effect on LDL levels.

There is two type of confusion which people can face before taking a Medicine

1.Allopathic ?

2. Herbal Ayurvedic?

Allopathic medicine totally Made by Drugs and chemical which is harmful for our body and Some time it will create a side Effect which also insist to damage our other Function of body part 

Ayurvedic Medicine made by natural Product and Natural remedies which can't insist any side Effect 

Allopathic Medicine Cure disease temporary base  

Herbal Ayurvedic Medicine Cure Disease permanently

Approach

Allopathic Takes body in pieces- totally objective and incomplete. A physician of heart seems helpless to handle simple fever

Herbal Ayurvedic Takes body as a whole. A complete physician is that who has knowledge of all the systems of medicines! 

Evidence:

Considered as evidence based system of medicine- but not that true. The way allopathic physicians’ launches and withdraws medicines it never seems to be an evidence based system of medicines

Allopathic is totally a system of physical health and moreover this science has become a bio-engineering and bio-mechanical system of medicines- where they believe to replace/change of the organs or systems in name of treatment, not much worried about the CURE.

Ayurveda talks about complete wellness- physical, psychological, spiritual, economical and as well social wellness. For Ayurveda wellness is a complete package, not a scattered issue.

Modern day medical Sciences understand the value of being natural, but these have no natural aid for the body. They believe in chemicals and synthetic things alone.

Ayurveda is completely natural and it believes that to follow the nature is the only way to achieve complete wellness.

Allopathic therapeutic Level:

 On Therapeutic Level, modern day sciences seem to be confused for most of the time. They talk about the treatment and management but not think about CURE and REPAIR.

Ayurveda Considers Cure of a disease as the only way to go for the treatment. According to Ayurveda there cannot be less than Cure in a medical Science.

As modern sciences believe in suppressing the signs and symptoms, these never appreciate to remove the disease causing factors from the body. In allopathic they believe to hide the garbage under good skin.

Ayurveda considers the detoxification as a primary part of the treatments and considers that until unless the disease causing factors are available in the body, diseases will keep on popping up again and again

Herbal tips for white your teeth with banana peel

Delicious and dessert-like, bananas are a fruit preferred by a vast majority of humans. They are usually one of the first foods we are given because they digest easily and offer such optimal nutrition, but did you know that they are also excellent as a compound to use to whiten the teeth?
That’s right, the high amounts of potassium, magnesium, and manganese in the ripe banana can be applied to the teeth to remove stains and whiten them. Below are the steps we suggest if you want to use this folksy, homemade, and proven method.

1. Get a banana that is just ripe (it may still have trace amounts of green at each end, but not too much). Using a banana at this level of ripeness ensures that the peel contains optimal levels of potassium (which is the substance that really brightens the teeth);

2. Open the banana like a monkey does by peeling it from the bottom end and upward. Not only does this prevent all of those strange banana “threads” from appearing, but it also lets you have more control over the peel;

3. Take a small piece of the inside of the peel (you can use kitchen shears to cut off a manageable square) and begin gently rubbing this along your teeth;

4. Keep the application going for two minutes and be sure you are covering each of the teeth as much as possible with the material inside of the peel;

5. As you rub and pass the time, the minerals will be absorbed into the teeth and begin to promote the whitening.

6. Brush with your preferred toothpaste, rinse, and smile with your brighter and whiter teeth!
In addition to the minerals already listed, you will also discover that banana peel contains high amounts of calcium and vitamin D too. These are going to strengthen the teeth and help them to really absorb the minerals better.

Are there other “old wife’s tales” that work like this? Yes, actually there are two other household materials that you can apply to the teeth for whitening. Surprisingly enough they are strawberries and baking soda. Most people know that brushing with baking soda will often whiten the teeth, but when you combine one strawberry with 1/2 a teaspoon of baking soda you can create a pink and fruity pulp that (when applied for five minutes) will generally brighten the teeth.
Be aware that both bananas and strawberries have lots of natural sugar, so apply only once per day or even just once per week to be safe.

Bananas are one of the most famous common fruits among people of every age. Enjoyed in its various forms, bananas are eaten raw, accompanied with desserts, added in smoothies and consumed in many more ways too. Let us look at the benefits of eating this fruit.
