We Need Cholesterol to Function
Again, Cooking healthy with good balance of meat, lots of vegetables and fruits with long chain high grain carbohydrates, smart moderate exercise and keeping stress levels low all contribute to good health with proper levels of fatty acids and cholesterol in our bodies. Cooking with waterless cookware helps tremendously to keep down fats and preserve essential nutrients and vitamins.
Cholesterol is the major component of the cell membrane (outer barrier of all cells). It makes them “waterproof”, balancing the passage of water, electrolytes and nutrients in and out of the cells. without cholesterol the nerve and muscle tissues can’t work properly.
It is essential in the development of memory, in the uptake of hormones in the brain. Serotonin, the body’s feel good chemical, does not work properly when cholesterol levels are too low. Cholesterol is the main organic molecule in the brain. Also myelin, the conducting cover of all peripheral nerve is totally dependent on cholesterol for its formation. Without the cholesterol nerve signals can’t travel from one cell to the next across the nerve synapses, since the synapses are also made up of cholesterol.
There are many other functions of cholesterol in our metabolism but this is enough for now.
Rememver cook and eat healthy balanced diets. Cooking with waterless cookware methods will greatly help in reducing unecessary fats and preserving the nutrients. Enjoy life, but remember most things good, if done in excess become bad all of a sudden.
