Sugar or fats: which affects cholesterol more
The article discusses the impact of sugars and fats on blood cholesterol levels. It explains that excessive consumption of saturated and trans fats raises bad cholesterol (LDL) and increases the risk of heart disease and stroke, with these fats being abundant in fatty meats, dairy products, processed foods, and baked goods containing hydrogenated oils. As for added sugars, they do not directly affect cholesterol but can raise triglycerides and lower good cholesterol (HDL) when consumed in excess, especially in sweetened beverages. Experts advise following a balanced diet that reduces these types of fats and sugars, along with engaging in physical activity to maintain heart health and improve cholesterol levels.
