here could be any number of reasons why you're reading this book at this particular point in time. Perhaps your doctor has just told you that you have high cholesterol. It could be that a member of your family has been told that.
Perhaps you've experienced high cholesterol for a while, taking prescription medication for the condition, but not experiencing the results you believe you should. Not you're looking for other answers.
Then again you may have just discovered the "dark side" of prescription cholesterol medication: adverse side effects. You're anxious to reduce your dependence on drugs through more natural and safer means.
Whatever the reason you're searching for natural answers to your elevated cholesterol count, rest assured you're not alone. In the United States 102.2 million adults have total blood cholesterol values of 200 mg/dL or higher -- which places them squarely at risk for cardiovascular disease.
But more than that, more than 35 million of these people have levels that are greater than 240 mg/dL. Numbers this high mean these people are considered at high risk for heart disease. Are you or a loved one among this group?
1 Out Of Every 6
Of Us Have High Cholesterol
Let's dig just a little deeper into these statistics. They may mean a little more to you if we view them from another perspective. Those numbers I just cited mean that about one in every six adults is burdened with high total cholesterol. In other words, more than 16 percent of the total population experiences this health condition.
This may surprise you, but more women than men suffer from high cholesterol levels in the U.S.
And it's not just a condition that affects one ethnic group. The prevalence is spread almost evenly across all nationalities. High cholesterol affects about 16 percent of white men and nearly 18 percent of white women.
Among Mexican-Americans, the numbers are roughly the same. More than 17 percent of Mexican-American men are saddled with high cholesterol levels, while nearly 14 percent of Mexican American females are diagnosed with it.
Among African-Americans, the numbers are slightly lower. About 11 percent of African-American women are burdened with this.
Numbers Increase with Age
Not only that, but the older you get -- regardless of nationality -- the greater your risk of developing high total cholesterol levels. Check out the chart below to see.
