Too much sugar is quietly harming your cholesterol: Understanding its effects on LDL, HDL, and heart health
Excess sugar intake significantly disrupts fat metabolism, elevating "bad" cholesterol (LDL and triglycerides) while lowering "good" cholesterol (HDL). This increases the risk of heart disease and metabolic disorders. Limiting added sugars, especially from processed foods and drinks, is crucial for maintaining a healthy lipid profile and overall heart health.
