Abstract

Awareness and education surrounding the health impacts of high cholesterol is crucial for young adults. Elevated cholesterol is a major risk factor in the development of cardiovascular disease. Education about cholesterol could empower young adults to engage in proactive health monitoring and management. Promoting awareness through targeted health education and awareness can lead to better outcomes, encouraging a generation to prioritize heart health. Ultimately, early intervention and lifestyle modifications can mitigate the potential consequences of high cholesterol, enhancing overall well-being and quality of life.
