Patient discussion about good cholesterol
Q. what is good for high cholesteral and blood pressure? my friend just had a stroke and what because of that what can we give him to help him out?
A. i'm pretty sure that if he had a stroke- he went tho the hospital and saw a Dr. and if that's true, he probably advised your friends about medical care for cholesterol and blood pressure. so what you can do is help from the friend position- start going with him to the gym, the best help for those conditions are loosing weight and sport. and to do that you have to be persistent in your sport activity. this is much much easier to do with a friend!
