Thai actress Davika Hoorne has surprised fans. Her annual family health checkup found dangerously high LDL, or “bad,” cholesterol despite her famously slim figure.
Davika said her LDL levels came back so high that she was nearly put on medication. She’s still relatively young, so her doctor recommended lifestyle changes first. She said the issue felt closer to home than she expected. People around her have dealt with blocked arteries. She wants to use her own experience to warn others: being thin doesn’t guarantee good health on the inside. She also recommended regular vascular checks, including an MRI scan for calcium buildup in the neck arteries.
She was upfront about the cause: a fondness for snacks and junk food, and a long break from exercise. She’s now overhauling her routine. She’s cutting back on fried and fatty food, and taking up tennis to stay active.
Davika also said she’s worried about her mother. Her mother’s cholesterol levels are also above the healthy range, and she has started taking medication prescribed by her doctor. Davika urged people not to skip their annual health checkup to save money. Catching a problem early, she said, is worth far more than treating it once it becomes serious.
