hy do some people live to a vigorous old age without any heart problemswhile othershave a heart attack in their early40's? We do not have a complete answer to thisquestion, but we do know that certain factorsincrease the risk of developing heart disease. These risk factors for heart disease may be classified into two groups; those that you cannot control, such asincreasing age and historyof heart disease in familymembers; and those that you can control. The bad newsisthat the more of these risk factorsyou have, the greater your chances of developing heart disease. The good news is that many can be controlled byfollowing a healthylifestyle and, if necessary, taking medicationsprescribed byyour doctor. If you have any of the following controllable risk factors for heart disease, read this booklet and ask your doctor what you can do to help you to Take Care of Your Heart.

Your blood cholesterol level hasa lot to do with your chancesof getting heart disease. High blood cholesterol isone of the major risk factorsfor heart disease. HOW DOES CHOLESTEROL CAUSE HEART DISEASE? When cholesterol builds up in the arteries, they harden and become narrow, resulting in blockagesthat can lead to heart disease and stroke. KNOW YOUR CHOLESTEROL LEVEL Everyone at age 20 and older should have their cholesterol measured at least once every 5 years. It is best to have a blood test called a "lipoprotein profile" to find out your cholesterol level. This blood test is done after a 12-hour fast and givesinformation about your: Total Cholesterol LDL (bad) Cholesterol HDL (good) Cholesterol Triglycerides UNDERSTANDING YOUR TEST RESULTS Total cholesterol - thistellsyou how much cholesterol you have in your blood. Desirable value = lessthan 200 mg/dL (lessthan 5. 1 mmol/L) 3 HIGH BLOOD CHOLESTEROL Final Take care of heart 1/18/04 10:03 PM Page 5 $ LDL (bad) cholesterol - this is responsible for depositing cholesterol in the wallsof your arteries. Raised levelsof LDL are associated with a higher risk of heart disease. Desirable value = 100 - 129mg/dL (2. 5 - 3. 3 mmol/L) HDL (good) cholesterol - thiscleansthe bodyfrom excessive cholesterol. High levelsof HDL can protect you against heart disease. Desirable value = greater than 40mg/dL (greater than 1. 0 mmol/L) Triglycerides - Thisisa type of fat that isalso associated with heart disease if above the normal level. Desirable value = lessthan 150 mg/dL (1. 6 mmol/L) It is important to know that there are two main methods of describing concentrations of your blood cholesterol: by weight i. e. milligram per deciliter (mg/dL) and bymolecular count i. e. millimolesper liter (mmol/L). To understand and describe the test resultsyou should remember the units used for measurement of your blood cholesterol level. WHAT TO DO TO LOWER YOUR CHOLESTEROL LEVELS C H A N G E YO U R D I E T Changing your diet is often the most effective way to lower your cholesterol to a desirable level, although it maytake a few monthsto see the results.

These help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and are thusgood for your health. % Include omega 3 and 6 oilsfrom oilyfish such assalmon, tuna, and sardines. These help to lower LDL cholesterol. Two fish meals per week isrecommended. E a t M o re S o lu b le F i b re Fibre lowers your cholesterol level by keeping the cholesterol in your diet from being absorbed by your body. Rolled oats, beans, fruit and vegetablesare high in fibre. C O N TR O L YO U R WE I G H T Being overweight isa risk factor for heart disease. It also tendsto increase your cholesterol. Losing weight can help lower your LDL (bad) cholesterol, total cholesterol and triglyceride level, and raise your HDL (good) cholesterol level. TA K E R E G U LA R E XE R C I S E Regular physical activitycan help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and raise HDL (good) cholesterol levels. It also helpsyou to lose weight.
