High cholesterol high blood pressure or heart disease

Have you been diagnosed with high cholesterol, dislipidaemia or high blood pressure, or have recently had a cardiac event, or have a family history of heart disease? If so, making changes to your diet and lifestyle can significantly reduce your risk of future cardiac events or stroke.

Did you know it’s not just your Total Cholesterol that’s important? To reduce your risk of heart disease we need to consider LDL Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, Triglycerides, and the HDL:Total Cholesterol ratio, blood pressure, body weight and waist circumference, dietary intake of antioxidants and other heart protective nutrients.

The Dietitian will conduct a full diet and lifestyle assessment and help you make achievable changes to improve your lipid profile, reduce your blood pressure and optimise your health. This may include (but is not limited to) individualised nutrition recommendations, meal ideas, example meal plans, and heart healthy recipes.
