LDL, not Cholesterol: Cholesterol is a fat molecule manufactured by every animal cell, a building block of each cell membrane (enables membrane fluidity/movement without tearing), is fundamental to the survival of every animal cell. Lipoproteins (proteins which transport all fats in the water outside cells)=correct issue: https://goo.gl/QMpZiI (e.g. LDL ≤700-400 nmol/l, HDL ≥45 µmol/l). Cholesterol ↓$, but misleading.
