Lower Cholesterol Research

Filed under: About Cholesterol, Tests - Administrator @ 11:03 am

I also found this useful bit of research about Cholesterol levels:

If you total cholesterol level lowers by 0.6 mmol/l, your risk of having a stroke is reduced by half. This fall in cholesterol also lowers the risk of having a heart attack by one-fifth.

 ( Law MR, Wald NJ, Thompson SG. By how much and how quickly does reduction in serum cholesterol concentration lower risk of ischaemic heart disease? BMJ. 1994; 308: 367-372.
 )

Another target to aim for?
