-HDL is the main transport form of cholesterol from peripheral tissue to liver, which is later excreted through bile .This is called reverse cholesterol transport by HDL +**HDL is involved in “Reverse Cholesterol Transport”** 
- The only excretory route of cholesterol from the body is the bile.  + 
-Excretion of cholesterol needs prior esterification with PUFA. Thus PUFA will help in lowering of cholesterol in the body, and so PUFA is anti-atherogenic + 
-The level of HDL in serum is inversely related to the incidence of myocardial infarction. As it is "anti-atherogenic" or protective in nature, HDL is known as "good cholesterol in common parlance"+  * HDL is the main transport form of cholesterol from peripheral tissue to liver, which is later excreted through bile .This is called reverse cholesterol transport by HDL.
