Dyslipidemia is a medical condition marked by an abnormal lipid profile, encompassing cholesterol and triglycerides in the bloodstream. Its significance lies in its association with the development of cardiovascular diseases, notably atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease. This condition arises from disruptions in lipid production, utilization, or clearance, resulting in elevated levels of LDL cholesterol, often termed "bad" cholesterol, and decreased levels of HDL cholesterol, referred to as "good" cholesterol. Contributing factors to dyslipidemia include a combination of genetic predisposition, lifestyle choices, and underlying health conditions. Unhealthy dietary patterns, sedentary lifestyle, and obesity play substantial roles in its onset.
