What is High Cholesterol?
High Cholesterol refers to the presence of too much cholesterol — a fatty substance — in the blood. It can build up in blood vessels over time, narrowing or blocking arteries and increasing the risk of heart attack or stroke. Often symptomless, it's commonly managed with lifestyle changes and medication. An ICE card ensures that this important information is available to emergency responders, allowing them to act quickly and safely when every second counts.
