• Atorvastatin, the active ingredient in Atorva 40 Tablet is a statin medication that works by blocking an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, which is involved in the production of cholesterol in the liver.
• By inhibiting this enzyme, atorvastatin reduces the cholesterol produced in the liver and increases the liver's ability to remove LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol from the blood. It leads to decreased LDL cholesterol levels and increased HDL (high-density lipoprotein) cholesterol levels, or "good" cholesterol.
• Atorvastatin also reduces the levels of triglycerides in the blood, which are another type of fat that can contribute to cardiovascular disease. By lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood, atorvastatin can reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular diseases.

• Regular exercise can help lower lipid levels, reduce inflammation, and improve heart health. Thirty minutes of moderate-intensity exercise daily can reduce the risk of stroke and heart attacks.
• Apple cider vinegar can help lower cholesterol levels by reducing cholesterol absorption from food. Add 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar to a glass of water, and drinking it before meals can help improve digestion and manage weight.
