    Solution

    To prevent heart problems:

    • Low cholesterol level minimizes arterial plaque formation.
    • High HDL level (good cholesterol) helps transport cholesterol from tissues to the liver for excretion.
    • High VLDL and LDL levels are harmful as they increase the risk of atherosclerosis.
    Information Booster:                  
    1. HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein) is protective against cardiovascular diseases.
    2. LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) contributes to plaque formation in arteries.
    3. VLDL (Very Low-Density Lipoprotein) carries triglycerides and increases risk of heart issues.
