Abstract

Welcome to Public Health Moment from the University of Minnesota. September is National Cholesterol Education Month, an annual campaign to alert people to have their cholesterol levels checked and to take steps to lower it, if need be. The general consensus is that anything greater than 200 for total cholesterol is too high, according to Dr. Russell Luepker, a University of Minnesota professor of epidemiology. <Clip: “Elevations of cholesterol above 200…high cholesterol is associated with stroke.”> Luepker says there are several things to consider if you have total cholesterol above 200. <clip: “More and more, physicians are agreeing…without resort to medications.”> With another Public Health Moment, I’m John Finnegan.
