Red meat, especially fatty meat, does indeed contain a relatively high level of cholesterol. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that the body needs, but if it is excessive, it can accumulate in the arteries. According to the American Heart Association website, continuous excessive accumulation of high cholesterol can lead to atherosclerosis, which is the narrowing of blood vessels that obstructs blood flow to the brain.

Feeling dizzy after waking up does not always mean high cholesterol, especially if the night before consuming satay or tongseng. "The direct relationship between the consumption of sacrificial meat and high cholesterol cannot be confirmed without laboratory examination," said Prof. Tjandra Yoga Aditama, Former Director General of Disease Control and Former Head of Research and Development at the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, quoted from Health Liputan6.com.

Tjandra Yoga explains that feeling dizzy upon waking up can be caused by various factors. "It could also be due to lack of sleep or bad dreams," he said. Therefore, Tjandra Yoga suggests that those who feel dizzy try to sleep again for two to three hours, take a warm shower, drink warm tea or coffee while having breakfast, and have a casual conversation. "Usually, the headache will disappear," he said.
