Welcome to the Pulse Three-Point-Eighteen: In this episode we talk about a health issue that affects nearly one in every three Americans. We’re talking about high cholesterol.
About half of women and two thirds of men in the United States develop heart disease — due to high cholesterol. Cholesterol naturally exists in our bodies and is necessary for your health– but high levels of bad cholesterol can be deadly. Icyou tells you what you need to know about cholesterol, so that you can maintain a healthy balance.
In this video, Dr. Marc Jacobson discusses why we need a certain level of cholesterol in the first place. He explains that ithelps cell membranes structure and function. For example, it’s the basis for many hormones such as estrogen and testosterone. He says it is important that we have cholesterol in every cell.
The issue is a concern for many Americans, and you or someone you know is probably affected by high levels of cholesterol. It can often be helpful to hear from someone who has dealt with the health concern.
In this video, you’ll hear from Paul DiMeo of Extreme Makeover – Home Edition. A physician informed DiMeo of his high cholesterol at a routine visit. DiMeo explains how he attempted to lower his cholesterol naturally with diet and exercise — followed by a prescription statin. Dr. Gerald DeVaughn shares his medical advice regarding diet and exercise to reduce one’s risk of complications caused by high cholesterol.
These videos explain the importance of a healthy cholesterol level, but how can we achieve and maintain these goal levels? Diet and exercise is enough for many, but sometimes genetics or significantly high levels of cholesterol require a patient to take prescription medications.
On the RealQuestions.TV Channel, a couple of different videos offer advice on how often to exercise and what to eat in order to lower your cholesterol. In one video, Dr. Steve Nissen recommends patients exercise a minimum of twenty to thirty minutes three days a week. And in a second video Dr. Roberta Lee suggests eating foods high in fiber, such as stone cut oats and cold water fish.
For one last piece of expert advice, check out The Pulse blog for an exclusive guest post courtesy of Home Health Testing’s Robyn Schelenz.
Robyn prepares us for those summer barbeques by providing food alternatives for the cholesterol-conscious. She suggests eating gelato rather than ice cream and testing your own cholesterol with a home cholesterol test available through the Home Health Testing website.

Seated Band Rows
A complete system unto itself. Concerned with balance of Chi or Life Force. Under stress, chi is out of balance – deficiency of chi in one area, blockage of chi in another. Chinese medical practitioners diagnose by checking pulse: 3 different places, 2 different depths on either side. Each pulse is a different organ in the body. Patient sticks out tongue for doctor to check. Treatments: medical herbs, massage, diet, and acupuncture. Good research data show it helps with sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, and pain.
Understandably, this is not going to save the planet or signifigantly reduce your electric bill but it will give you really intense workout. It just seemed to make good sense that an alternator would work well since it is already voltage-regulated and cheap & easy to obtain.
