Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (often referred to as "bad" cholesterol) builds up over time, forming plaques in your arteries, which can slowly narrow blood vessels over time.

Exercise helps boost good HDL cholesterol which will in turn “clear out bad cholesterol” and it helps to make your cardiovascular system more efficient and resilient, Dr. Bradley Serwer says.

When your liver processes alcohol, it produces more LDL cholesterol and other harmful lipids.

The World Health Organization recently warned that there is no safe amount of alcohol.

Red wine may actually help raise your levels of HDL cholesterol, but light to moderate drinking may increase good cholesterol.

If changes to your lifestyle don’t help to improve your cholesterol within about six months , it may be time to consider medications.
