Cholestrol Related
Hello doctors,
I have a little weird query - Can cholestrol be cleared from the arteries through proper diet and exercise? I understand cholestrol is needed for proper functioning of the body but the excess that is already stored and clogging the arteries, can it be cleared through diet and exercise or does diet and exercise only prevent further build up?
Thank you!

Diet and exercise will not clear the clogging, bit it will stabilize and prevent progression which is most important.
