Saharogya Seasonal Medohara (Tea for Cholesterol) Tea
Cholesterol is a waxy substance found in the blood which is responsible for protecting nerves and producing certain hormones. It acts as a lubricating agent supports the body’s channels in carrying nutrients to the cells and waste from the cells. Hence, moderate cholesterol levels are essential for the healthy functioning of the body while inordinate levels can have a detrimental impact.
Cholesterol is transported in the body by lipoproteins which can be of low and high density. LDL (low-density lipoprotein) is considered the bad cholesterol while HDL (high-density lipoprotein) is considered the good cholesterol. While HDL helps to remove excess cholesterol from the blood and carries it to the liver where it is reduced and flushed out of the body, high levels of LDL can slowly build in the arteries, resulting in narrowing which increases the risk of coronary heart diseases. High cholesterol means an increase of lipids (fats) in the blood and decrease in metabolism, causing lethargy, excess sleep, uncontrolled perspiration, a foul body odour, loss of libido and lack of stamina. If not controlled in time, high cholesterol can lead to hypertension, diabetes, heart problems, joint disorders and obesity.
