Yes, and major as well.
yes high cholesterol can lead to coronary heart disease check out these websites and see what you think www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/007115.htm
i think diabetes lead to heart disease cause diabetes is the lung blood sugar and heart disease are the same AND it is the same body
A sore throat has no connection to heart disease.
Cholesterol- an organic chemical substance classified as a waxy steroid of fat. It is an essential structural component of mammalian cell membranes and is required to establish proper membrane permeability and fluidity. In addition to its importance within cells, cholesterol is an important component in the hormonal systems of the body for the manufacture of bile acids, steroid hormones, and vitamin D. Cholesterol is the principal sterol synthesized by animals; in vertebrates it is formed predominantly in the liver. Small quantities are synthesized in other cellular organisms (eukaryotes) such as plants and fungi. It is almost completely absent among prokaryotes, i.e. bacteria. Although cholesterol is important and necessary for human health, high levels of cholesterol in the blood have been linked to damage to arteries and cardiovascular disease.[2] Heart Disease- Heart disease is a broad term used to describe a range of diseases that affect your heart. The various diseases that fall under the umbrella of heart disease include diseases of your blood vessels, such as coronary artery disease; heart rhythm problems (arrhythmias); heart infections; and heart defects you're born with (congenital heart defects). The term "heart disease" is often used interchangeably with "cardiovascular disease." Cardiovascular disease generally refers to conditions that involve narrowed or blocked blood vessels that can lead to a heart attack, chest pain (angina) or stroke. Other heart conditions, such as infections and conditions that affect your heart's muscle, valves or beating rhythm, also are considered forms of heart disease. Many forms of heart disease can be prevented or treated with healthy lifestyle choices.
Several of the MANY side effects of steroid use do include Cardiovascular disease by an increase of LDL, or bad cholesterol, and a decrease of HDL (the good cholesterol). High cholesterol is one of the leading risk factors associated to heart attacks and CVD.

Cholesterol is either absorbed from food or made in the body. This synthesis can take place in most cells in the body including the cells of the heart, however cholesterol does not only come from the heart. Cholesterol can lead to clogging of arteries around the heart leading to heart problems.
A cholesterol HDL ratio is the high density lipoprotein and a high ration indicates a person is more at risk of heart disease. It can also lead to diabetes and the problems associated with it.
The body does not make enough cholesterol.
There are many leading contributing factors that lead to heart disease. Some of those factors are age, being male, race, smoking, high cholesterol, family history, stress, and obesity.
A major reason for wanting to lower your blood cholesterol is to stop it from clogging your arteries. Clogged arteries can lead to health problems and heart problems.
Crestor is the brand name for a drug rosuvastatin. This is a statin and lowers cholesterol. It is likely he had a high total cholesterol with high LDL levels which predisposes to a condition known as atherosclerosis or furring of the arteries. This can lead to heart disease such as angina (a dull ache or pain when exercising that disappears when he rests) or could lead to more serious conditions such as a heart attack or stroke.
Because cholesterol is, in a nutshell, FAT. If you have high cholesterol, you have large amounts of fat, and it gets difficult for your heart to pump the needed amount of blood cells into the rest of your body, and it weakens.[Actually, cholesterol comes from animal fat. There are two kinds: Low-density lipoprotein (LDL or "bad" cholesterol) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL or "good" cholesterol.) When there is too much of LDL, hardening of the arteries occurs. The walls of these blood vessels thicken due to deposits of fat and plaque. This narrowing or blockage of the arteries causes Heart disease. Some heart-disease risks you're born with. Some you can avoid. The risk factors for heart disease: smoking, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, obesity, physical inactivity, and Diabetes. HDL actually works to clear cholesterol from the blood.Triglycerides are another fat in the bloodstream. Research has shown that high levels of them can also lead to heart disease. High levels of HDL and low levels of LDL and Triglycerides are the ideal for preventing heart disease.]
A person should consume no more than 300 milligrams of cholesterol per day. High cholesterol levels can lead to heart disease.
