Fats in the blood: Our body needs fats or lipids for our cells and organs to work properly. When eat food with fats, the fats are absorbed in the intestine and then carried through the blood to the liver and other areas where these fats are processed into various sizes and particles. If your body's biochemistry does not back enough of the 'good' lipids or makes too much of the 'bad' lipids, this is dyslipidemia.
