⚠️ The trap
Same meaning. The trap: 'avere il colesterolo alto' (have high cholesterol) — Italian uses the article 'il'. 'Colesterolo LDL' = bad cholesterol; 'colesterolo HDL' = good cholesterol. These acronyms are the same in Italian and English.
To say "same" in Italian:
colesterolo (correct)
"colesterolo" in English means:
cholesterol
Example
"Ha il colesterolo alto e deve ridurre i grassi saturi."
"She has high cholesterol and needs to reduce saturated fats."
