Posted: Published on January 14th, 2015

Despite decades of research on prevention, detection, and management, coronary heart disease is still a number one cause of mortality and morbidity in the developed world for both men and women. A major risk factor for both myocardial infarction and atherosclerosis is hypercholesterolemia. Anti-aging medicine concepts and interventions were shown to be highly relevant with regards to hormone replacement therapy in a small clinical study by Dzugan et al. in 2002. The theory presented was the belief that high cholesterol levels were a consequence of low production of steroid hormones, i.e., estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. After youthful levels of these hormones were restored, total cholesterol dropped by 23.5 percent and normalized completely in 61.6 percent of patients. It is also important to note that individual dosing with bio-identical hormones were used. In this study all patients reported an increase in quality of life. So, it seems bio-identical hormone replacement therapy has been shown to be an effective approach in the control of hypercholesterolemia. Treatment for high cholesterol (dyslipidemia) should start with optimal nutrition, diet, and ideal body weight, along with an aerobic and resistance exercise program. If appropriate for a low to moderate risk person, nutritional supplements are utilized. Some … Continue reading →
