If the concentration of cholesterol in blood exceeds the normal level then it may lead to increase deposition of fat leading to heart diseases and paralysis. One can easily know his cholesterol level by undergoing blood test. We can know the low density lipoprotein level (LDL) and high density lipoprotein level (HDL) by test. If LDL concentration is more then fat may get deposit and increases the risk of heart attack. So LDL is called “Bad cholesterol”.
