Did you know that cholesterol helps your skin turn sunlight into vitamin D for your body?

While your body naturally produces the cholesterol it needs to stay healthy, high levels can be harmful.

Some key jobs of cholesterol include :
- Helping form the outer layers of all cells in your body
- Making steroid hormones that helps the body grow
- Helps aid in digestion

Even though cholesterol is one part of your health, it affects a lot more than you may realize. High cholesterol is linked to:
- Loss of memory and mental function over time - including a specific type of dementia, called vascular dementia.
- Increased risk of developing gallstones.
- Increased risk of stokes or heart attacks
- Increased risk of Prostate Cancer in one study.
