The main dietary factor associated with elevated blood cholesterol is saturated fat.

<h3>What about saturated fat?</h3>
  • Because they increase the amount of LDL cholesterol in our blood, saturated fats, sometimes known as "bad fats," increase the risk of cardiovascular disorders (including heart disease and stroke).
  • Cholesterol that is circulated in the blood.
  • The majority of this cholesterol is produced by the body, however some is also absorbed from the meals you eat.
  • Even if they include fat, foods derived from plants never contain cholesterol.
  • Only foods from animals do. Low density lipoproteins are able to transport cholesterol.
  • Dietary fat, particularly saturated and trans fats, may increase LDL and total cholesterol levels in the blood.
  • Blood cholesterol levels may be lowered by substituting polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats, particularly olive and canola oil, for some saturated fats.
  • When we consume too much saturated fat, the receptors stop functioning as effectively, and blood cholesterol levels rise.

What types of features would be visible if the oceans were drained?
lesya [120]
Draining the oceans would show features such as mid-ocean ridges. These features would look like an extensive mountain range running down the spine of the ocean floor. This region marks the area where two oceanic tectonic plates are being pushed apart. Closer to land or the continents would be a gentle shelf that gradually deepens as one moves away from the coastline. This relatively gentle plain would then make a steep drop off down to an extensive plain stretching towards ocean ridges. The ocean floor also supports lone mountain structures, canyons and chasms.
