Exam Room Cholesterol Poster 12x18

Total cholesterol and HDL cholesterol numbers are important health assessment questions on the 10-year heart attack risk test. This test was recently recommended in the 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults.

Learning objectives & benefits:
  • This new Cholesterol Poster shows optimal, acceptable, borderline and high levels of total cholesterol, LDL, HDL and Triglycerides
  • Lists therapeutic lifestyle changes (TLC) for your heart:
  • Eat healthy
  • Exercise
  • Lose weight if you are overweight

  • Lists foods to focus on and foods to limit or avoid with colorful and fun illustrations
  • It also makes a great classroom poster plus it can be used as a school cafeteria poster.
The 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults clearly states that diet and lifestyle should always be the first approach to manage the risk of heart disease.

Being aware one's cholesterol numbers, along with how to improve them, is an important part of diet and lifestyle management.

The National Cholesterol Education Program ATP III recommends, "Cholesterol lowering is important for young, middle-aged, and older adults. 1 out of every 2 men and 1 out of every 3 women will develop heart disease sometime in their life. Whether you have heart disease or want to prevent it, you can reduce your risk for having a heart attack by lowering your cholesterol level."

According to the Center for Disease Control, heart disease is the top killer. Everyone needs to be able to understand their risk factors and how to lower them.

This poster, designed for smaller spaces like exam rooms and health rooms, accomplishes heart health education in one glance.

Help all individuals understand their cholesterol numbers and how to lower them through diet and exercise with this Cholesterol Poster with matching Cholesterol Handouts. Handouts include tips and strategies following recommendations from the TLC Plan plus a fun Cholesterol puzzle and bulletin board sample layout.

Rest assured that you have the most up to date information because our Cholesterol Poster is based on the most updated information to date from research, NCEP, AHA, ACC and the Dietary Guidelines for Americans.
