Introduction to Cholesterol

There seems to be a lot of misunderstanding regarding cholesterol among the general public. Very often people think that they have no way of controlling cholesterol, or that it’s “all bad”. That only sick people have cholesterol.

Nervous Breakdown

A nervous breakdown refers to a mainstream and often-used term to generically describe someone who experiences a bout of mental illness that is so severe, it directly impacts their ability to function in everyday life. The specific mental illness can be anything – depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or something else. But the reference to a “nervous breakdown” usually refers to the fact that the person has basically stopped their daily routines – going to work, interacting with loved ones or friends, even just getting out of bed to eat or shower.
