During high cholesterol, fatty substance in the blood develops and eventually grows more significant, making blood flow through arteries difficult. Those fatty substances can break and make a clot, which leads to stroke or a heart attack. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span><span style=\"color: #333333;\">High cholesterol can be inherited through genetics but can also result from unhealthy lifestyles and food choices. So high cholesterol is highly treatable and preventable with proper exercise and a healthy diet, and some medications help reduce high cholesterol.
