Does Coffee Raise Cholesterol?

If you are someone concerned with your health, it is important to monitor the cholesterol levels in your body. High cholesterol has the potential to slow the blood flow to and from the heart, which could potentially cause difficulty breathing or a heart attack.

In the past, many people strayed away from coffee drinking because it was rumored to raise cholesterol levels. There also were some studies that did claim that drinking unfiltered coffee would also elevate cholesterol. There were other studies that showed that individuals who drank decaf coffee had higher LDL levels of cholesterol.

The bottom line is that the studies were inconclusive, and not just one factor contributes to high cholesterol. It is important to drink coffee in moderation at 2 to 3 cups per day and also have a healthy exercise and diet plan in place for success.
