High Cholesterol Symptoms:
Are There Any?

You may not see any symptoms until it is too late. That's why this is very important:

Check your cholesterol level before you have a heart attack or stroke.

But it is simple to see if you may have symptoms of high cholesterol. Look at the list below - if any of them applies to you, then these are symptoms of a high cholesterol lifestyle:

Possible Symptoms of High Cholesterol

• You eat prepared or fast food.

• You eat regular cheese and buy whole milk.

• You smoke.

• You indulge in fatty meats - ribs,bacon or porkchops.

• You get little exercise.

• You are overweight - if so, your body stores more fat and cholesterol.

• You do not check your cholesterol level.

You need to have a check up by a doctor that includes taking a blood sample to measure your cholesterol levels.

While there are no high cholesterol symptoms, you can actually see them from the end-result of high cholesterol on health. These end results are heart attack and stroke.

Let us break each of these two high cholesterol symptoms and look at them in depth.

Heart Disease.

When you have high cholesterol even though there are no symptoms, the cholesterol itself builds up and clogs the arteries. The outcome is that the blood flow is slowed or stopped completely.

Some high cholesterol symptoms, which may show a sign of heart disease, are:

• Chest pain - When a person experiences this, they describe a feeling of "pressure", "squeezing", or a general feeling of "someone sitting on their chest."

• In addition to the reported pressure, other symptoms can include nausea, shortness of breath, sweating, light headedness or dizziness, and heart palpitations.

• Numbness and/or tingling in the lower extremities.

• A cold sensation in the lower extremities.

• Open sores or ulcers on the lower extremities that do not heal normally.

Stroke.

• The sudden onset of numbness or weakness of face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body.

• Confusion, difficulty speaking or understanding.

• Sudden trouble with vision in one or both eyes.

• Dizziness, loss of balance, lack of coordination

• Other symptoms can include, nausea, vomiting, fever, fainting, convulsions, and even coma.

I want to share the story of my uncle who had a stroke in 1991 (he passed away in 2001). He was a healthy person in his fifties and after having a routine checkup, the doctor told him that he had high blood pressure and he had to take care of his diet and take some medicines.

Since my uncle was healthy, there were no symptoms at all and he did not feel anything wrong, he just ignored the medication and continued with his diet as usual. Then few months later, it happened. He had a stroke and from 1991 until he passed away in 2001 he was bedridden and had to be attended daily for washing, feeding and he could not even go to the bathroom.

That's how silent these symptoms are. Now you're in top shape the next day you're in hospital.

Personally I've taken care of my cholesterol by using a very effective supplement called Choleslo, which lowered my cholesterol naturally. The reason for this cholesterol lowering I believe is that this supplement contains a number of proven natural ingredients that lower cholesterol: red yeast, garlic, guggul, policosanol and phytosterols.

All the Best
