About this eBook
Abstract: The hearing reported in this document considered the debate over the role government should play in cholesteral education. The value of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute's massive National Cholesteral Education Program in questioned and the placement of such a high priority on cholesteral education while other national health problems exist is challenged. Two witnesses testify that the hazards of cholesteral have been greatly exaggerated. Methods of cholesteral screening (public screenings vs. private visits to doctors) and their relative merits are discusses. Other witnesses assert that the dangers of cholesteral are not overstated and that the government's role in publicizing cholesteral related information will help to lower suffering and death from chronic heart disease.
