Elevated HDL concentration is associated with a low risk of heart disease because HDL helps to transport cholesterol from the blood vessels to the liver for excretion, which can help prevent the buildup of plaque in the arteries. Additionally, HDL has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that can protect against damage to the blood vessels.
Very high levels of HDL and LDL lead to Heart diseases. If there are too many LDL molecules in your blood HDL will help get rid of it but over time it will build up in you blood decreasing the flow to your heart and brain. This leads to a heart attack or a stroke.
