What Is Hyperlipidemia?
10. Treatment
Hyperlipidemia is usually treatable, and treatment often does not involve medication or any other form of medical treatment. Rather, the most effective way of treating the condition is for the patient to make often drastic changes to their lifestyle. One of these is for them to make significant changes to their diet.
Eating a diet that is low in fats will go a long way to helping reduce cholesterol levels. Even moderate exercise can also make a difference to cholesterol levels and to overall health. If lifestyle changes are not enough, then medication is available that can help reduce cholesterol levels and reduce blood pressure where necessary.
