Description

This page welcomes to the Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes (TLC) section. Here, you will learn how changes in your lifestyle (i.e., eating a low saturated fat, low cholesterol diet [TLC Diet], regular physical activity, and weight management) can help to lower your cholesterol and reduce your chance of having a heart attack or other heart disease complications as well as improve your health in other ways. The TLC section moves you through several different "cyber rooms," each with several interactive activities to help you learn how to make changes in your diet and activity level to lower your blood cholesterol.
