Why You Shouldn't Ignore Cholesterol
Why you shouldn't ignore cholesterol
Cholesterol is not a myth. It's actually one of the most extensively studied risk factors for heart and vascular disease, with incredibly consistent findings that the lower your LDL (bad) cholesterol is, the better.
Studies show that 37% of seniors don't take the statins they are prescribed. We understand why not everyone wants to take lipid-lowering drugs. But, some patients should be on statins, after all they can be life-saving for people with heart disease or diabetes. But even people without heart disease or diabetes who have let their statin prescriptions lapse should not simply ignore high LDL numbers and hope for the best. If they do, they’re risking their heart health. A rise in LDL level is associated with a similar rise in heart disease risk. And that association is stronger when LDL is elevated for a long time.
