Procedures
It is believed that some new procedures can remove some of the build up of plaque in the arteries brought about by lowering cholesterol. Other therapies involve non-surgical methods used to treat other conditions, but which have been found to have an impact on cholesterol. There is no quick fix to high cholesterol if you do not make changes in your diet and lifestyle.
