  low cholesterol and its consequence 
  
  previously we have seen that cholesterol is a critical element of our cells and tissues  in addition scientific evidence suggests that high cholesterol is not necessarily harmful but offers a protective effect against brain disorders such as alzheimers disease  at this point we should ask the opposite question what about if we have too little cholesterol what are the consequences 
  
  without cholesterol we would die 
  it is well known today that cholesterol performs several important functions in the body one of the best important is not the most important function of cholesterol is to assist the proper regulation of the immune system indeed people who have a low blood cholesterol have an anergic immune system ie a lack of reaction by the bodys defense mechanisms to foreign substances vredevoe et al  in other words your body cannot fight off pathogens such as bacteria viruses parasites and fungi without cholesterol the different cells involved in an immune response such as macrophages lymphocytes etc cannot recognize the invaders and destroy them interestingly it was shown that the ldl particles are the ones needed for an adequate immune response masterjohn  these particles neutralize microbes and toxins before they cause any damage to the tissuesorgans and we call these ldl particles bad cholesterol without them we would be dead another fact is that a low blood cholesterol increases our risks of developing tuberculosis 
  more importantly a sufficient supply of cholesterol to the immune system is critical to eliminate cancer cells indeed cholesterol is needed to slow down the progression of cancer in addition to cholesterol saturated fats like palmitic and myristic acids are also necessary for an optimum immune system these fats are found in tropical oil such as coconut oil would this fact explain why asian people have a lower rate of cancer than north americans 
  
  is cholesterol protective not causative of heart disease 
  there is a tremendous amount of evidence to suggest that microbial infections are one of the primary drive force of plaque accumulation in the arteries of the heart   in support of this a lack of buccal hygiene considerably increases your risk of heart disease  some researchers have noticed that people who suffered from a heart attack also had the flu a few days prior   it seems that those microorganisms change the structure of the blood vessels leading to inflammation and an accumulation of plaques at the sites of injury based on this evidence we can propose that cholesterol actually minimizes the risk of developing heart disease via the elimination of dangerous pathogens indeed it seems to be the case  
  it is time to end this war on cholesterol science is very clear cholesterol does not cause heart disease on the contrary cholesterol is a vital element of a vibrant health by making sure the immune system is strong by being a critical component of vitamin d synthesis by helping the body make sex hormones among other functions
