HDL particles function primarily to transport cholesterol from the bloodstream and artery walls to the liver, where it can be processed and excreted from the body. This process may help to reduce the risk of [[cholesterol]] buildup and [[atherosclerosis]], thereby protecting against [[coronary heart disease]]. Higher levels of HDL are generally associated with a lower risk of [[cardiovascular disease]], making them a crucial component of lipid management and overall cardiovascular health.

It was once believed that HDL was cardio-protective, however recent data has thrown this conclusion into question [(1)](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32113648/)[(2)](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27673306/).
