| Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance
found among lipids (fats) in the bloodstream and cells. Cholesterol
isn't all bad. Our bodies use it to form cell membranes, for
example. But too much cholesterol in the bloodstream can be
unhealthy, and lead to coronary heart disease. |
The practice of yoga improves the blood and oxygen flow around
the body which aids in the removal of toxins and waste. For yoga
to be truly beneficial to the lowering of your unwanted bad cholesterol
it must be practiced on a regular basis.

that accumulate within your body.
