About one-third of blood cholesterol is carried by high-density lipoprotein
(HDL). HDL cholesterol is known as the "good" cholesterol because a high level
of it seems to protect against heart attack. (Low HDL cholesterol levels [less
than 40 mg/dL] increase the risk for heart disease.) Medical experts think that
HDL tends to carry cholesterol away from the arteries and back to the liver,
where it's passed from the body. Some experts believe that HDL removes excess
cholesterol from plaque in arteries, thus slowing the buildup.
