Don't let high cholesterol fool you. Sure, it's virtually symptom-free. But it's a major contributor to heart disease, the leading cause of death in the United States.
The good news is that high cholesterol is very treatable. What's more, you may not need medication to get your numbers down. Often, lifestyle changes alone are enough.
Of course, changes aren't always easy. Just the idea of cutting back on dietary fat or working out for a half-hour every day may make you wonder if it's worth the effort.
It is, without question. Just ask any of the 100 women and men whose stories appear here. Some of them had family histories of heart disease and wanted to avoid the same fate. Others stood on the brink of heart attack, or had surgery to repair the damage high cholesterol had done.
Whatever their reasons, all of these women and men knew they had to get their cholesterol under control. And they did, using practical---and ingenious---strategies. Walking helped Bonnie Luft shave 115 points from her total cholesterol. Bill Israel saw his level plummet more than 80 points once he started eating oatmeal for breakfast. For Joanna Pucel, who had a coronary bypass when she was just 37, daily relaxation breaks, helped lower her "bad" LDL cholesterol 131 points and raise her "good" HDL cholesterol 43 points.
Their stories, and 97 others, are proof positive that a healthy cholesterol profile is within reach. And their Winning Actions have been reviewed by experts, so you can use them with confidence.
WIN THE CHOLESTEROL WAR also features 10-step action plan, plus information on getting an accurate cholesterol test and interpreting the results (based on new American Heart Association guidelines).
in short, WIN THE CHOLESTEROL WAR gives you everything you need to achieve healthy cholesterol levels. So do your heart a favor and get started now!
