Cheese contains saturated fats, which can raise LDL ("bad") cholesterol levels if consumed in excess. However, moderate consumption is generally acceptable for most people.
Key points to consider:
- Type of cheese: Opt for lower-fat options like mozzarella or cottage cheese.
- Portion size: Keep servings small to manage cholesterol levels.
- Overall diet: Include cheese as part of a balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins.
- Individual health: Consult your doctor if you have high cholesterol or heart disease risk.
Discuss your specific health status with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.

View allI recently got my blood test results back, and I'm a bit worried. They showed that I have high blood pressure and elevated liver enzymes, with my SGPT at 57 UL and SGOT at 50 UL. My doctor prescribed Atoris for the blood pressure, but I heard it might not be good for people with high SGPT and SGOT levels. Could you let me know if that's true and what I should do?

I'm a bit concerned about my heart health. A year and a half ago, I was diagnosed with sinus arrhythmia, and my doctor put me on Vodafone 100. Since then, I've been taking the medication regularly, but my recent Holter report shows sinus bradycardia. Everything else like my lipid, liver, thyroid, and kidney profiles are normal, so I'm confused about what's going on. Could this be related to the medication, or is there something else I should be aware of? What steps should I take next?
