Symptoms and causes
- High amounts of bad Cholesterol in your blood could cause complications such as fatty plaque deposits, atherosclerosis, heart attack and stroke.
Home remedies
- Sesame Seeds oil prevents the formation of atherosclerotic lesions in mice fed an atherogenic diet. The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory lignan found within sesame seeds known as sesamol has been identified to be partially responsible for its anti-atherogenic properties. In fact, sesamol has been shown to possess over two dozen beneficial pharmacologically active properties, many of which may contribute to improving cardiovascular health.
