Hyperlipidemia, commonly known as high cholesterol, is a condition characterized by elevated levels of lipids (fats) in the blood, including cholesterol and triglycerides. This condition can lead to serious cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attack and stroke, by contributing to the buildup of plaque in the arteries. Often presenting with no symptoms, it's crucial to manage through lifestyle changes and, when necessary, medication.
