Cholesterol: Enhancing the Good, Managing the Bad
CHOLESTEROL: Enhancing the Good, Managing the Bad Knowing our cholesterol levels is very basic to our overall good health. Nearly half of us have a problem with high cholesterol. We should all be aware by now of the health benefits of knowing our cholesterol levels. Our overall cholesterol score is an indicator of our risk of heart attack.
But did you realize that it's not so much the score, but how much of that score is GOOD cholesterol and how much is BAD cholesterol? Or are you aware of the significance of the triglyceride level within your overall score? And what IS a triglyceride, anyway?
We'll learn that our overall lifestyle can help us control our cholesterol levels. And that today, there are many new testing techniques to determine our risk factors. Several medications have been developed to control our bad cholesterol levels.
CHOLESTEROL: Enhancing the Good, Managing the Bad is a program that puts a magnifying glass on this vital subject. This show is co-hosted by Antonio M. Gotto, Jr., M.D., Dean and Professor of Medicine at Weill Medical College of Cornell University in New York. This 30-minute documentary program, produced as part of ITV's award-winning series, The Cutting Edge Medical Report, airs over WebMD Television.
