from when I got my cholesterol tested recently exercise was recomended for me before a change of diet. I think there may be age dependent factors as my father seems to have been told more about diet in his.
She doesn’t get any decent exercise regularly (see joke about exercise mat used to watch TV and eat snacks.) Whether her diet also needs fixing or not, the exercise thing will be a major contributor to bad cholesterol build up. Even if she changed her diet it’s possible that wouldn’t be good enough on it’s own.
Thankfully, despite having the same problem myself I simply don’t care so I can continue to be a lazy bum. Who wants to live forever, anyway?
Exercise first, big change of diet second, strong drugs last. Depending on the severity and the damage already done.
If you’re likely to have a heart attack and die any day now, it’s too late to wait for exercise and diet to take effect, and we have to risk the drugs with terrible side effects to keep you alive.
Also, if your arteries are already seriously clogged and thinned, making your body shove more blood through them at twice the usual rate through heavy exercise may give you that heart attack before it had time to reduce the cholesterol significantly, so diet first, then exercise when your condition improves.
Funny, Id imagine it would prompt a change in diet.
