Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is commonly known as "bad cholesterol" and it is recommended to keep it low. High levels of LDL-C can accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis and increase the risk of diseases like stroke and heart attack. How is LDL-C formed and how can we prevent its oxidation?

1. Formation of LDL-C: Cholesterol in the body is synthesized by the liver and obtained from food. LDL-C acts as a transporter, delivering cholesterol to tissues and organs for cell membrane and hormone synthesis. When LDL-C enters the blood vessels and encounters inflammatory factors, it undergoes oxidative modification and transforms into LDL-C.

2. Formation of Plaque: Oxidized LDL-C attracts macrophages, which engulf the LDL-C particles, forming foam cells.
