Editor's Notes

  1. 73.5 million adults (31.7%) in the United States have high low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or “bad,” cholesterol. Fewer than 1 out of every 3 adults (29.5%) with high LDL cholesterol has the condition under control. People with high total cholesterol have approximately twice the risk for heart disease as people with ideal levels. Before age 55, women usually have lower cholesterol levels than men. However, after age 55, women can have higher levels than men. Leading Causes Deep-fried Processed foods https://www.cdc.gov/cholesterol/facts.htm
