Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: How often should I have my cholesterol checked?
A: The frequency of cholesterol checks can vary depending on your age, health history, and risk factors for heart disease. Generally, adults should have their cholesterol checked every 4-6 years, but those with higher risk may need more frequent screenings. Our healthcare team can recommend a screening schedule that’s right for you.
Q: What lifestyle changes can help manage cholesterol?
A: Lifestyle changes that can help manage cholesterol include eating a heart-healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins; increasing physical activity; quitting smoking; and reducing alcohol consumption. Our team can provide personalized advice and support to help you make these changes.
Q: Are there medications to help manage cholesterol?
A: Yes, there are several types of medications available to help manage cholesterol, including statins, bile acid sequestrants, and cholesterol absorption inhibitors. Our healthcare providers will determine if medication is necessary for you and, if so, which type is most appropriate based on your individual needs.
Q: Can high cholesterol be managed without medication?
A: In many cases, lifestyle changes alone can significantly improve cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Our team will work with you to create a comprehensive lifestyle modification plan tailored to your needs.
