Improve Cholesterol

Losing weight has been shown to improve cholesterol levels. LDL, or low-density lipoprotein, is "bad" cholesterol that can build up in the arteries and lead to heart disease. HDL, or high-density lipoprotein, is "good" cholesterol that helps remove LDL from the arteries. Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood. High levels of triglycerides can also increase the risk of heart disease. Overweight and obese people tend to have higher levels of LDL and triglycerides and lower levels of HDL. Losing weight can help to improve all three of these cholesterol measures.
Even a slight weight loss from IV drips for weight loss can have a significant impact on cholesterol levels. In addition, losing weight through healthy lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise can help to improve cholesterol more than weight loss achieved through calorie restriction alone. As such, making lifestyle changes to lose weight is not only good for your waistline, but it’s also good for your heart health.
