Evidence-based diet plus exercise programs for hyperlipidemia and coronary artery disease:
Preventive Health Advisor views both dietary changes and an exercise program of vital importance for control of hyperlipidemia.

The Pritikin Program lipid profile benefits:
A study using 67 patients with metabolic syndrome to investigate the effects of Pritikin therapy for 12-15 days showed improvement in LDL cholesterol (25,26), showed 10%-15% reduction of LDL (24), and lowered triglycerides (36% reduction) (33). Additionally, 37% of subjects no longer met the criteria for metabolic syndrome as determined by the National Cholesterol Education Program. HDL cholesterol decreased by 3%. (24)
