High cholesterol, often symptomless, may be linked to tendon pain, according to a study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. The research, which analyzed 17 studies with 2,612 participants, found that individuals with tendon pain or altered tendon structure had higher cholesterol levels. While the study suggests a relationship between cholesterol and tendon health, further research is needed to establish causation. To manage cholesterol, the NHS recommends reducing saturated fat intake and opting for unsaturated fats.
