It is surprising that no one has mentioned antioxidants and green tea yet.

Cholesterol is a substance the body naturally produces and requires for many functions. In the brain, cholesterol is essential for building and maintaining neuronal membranes, supporting synapse formation, and enabling myelin production. Statins interfere with cholesterol synthesis in the brain and have been associated in some cases with brain fog or short-term memory issues.

Cholesterol itself is not inherently harmful. It is oxidized cholesterol that causes atherosclerosis.

Antioxidants such as those found in green tea help prevent LDL oxidation.
