You’ve probably heard that cholesterol is bad… but that’s one of the biggest myths in modern health. 🧠
Cholesterol isn’t your enemy — it’s the foundation of your cells, hormones, and healing. Your brain alone holds around 25% of your body’s cholesterol because it needs it to function.
When levels drop too low, your body struggles to repair tissue, balance hormones, and fight inflammation. ⚠️
And while statins may lower your test numbers, they also reduce CoQ10, which your heart and muscles rely on for energy.
So instead of fearing cholesterol, focus on what really matters — reducing inflammation with real food, quality sleep, movement, and less stress. 🌿
Your body is designed to heal — cholesterol helps it do exactly that. 💛
