Housecall for Health: Testing Teens Cholesterol

A new study suggests people should pay closer attention to their cholesterol earlier in life to help improve their health later in life.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon reports in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

New research says when it comes to paying attention to cholesterol, don’t wait.  Scientists at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit find teens and young adults need to keep an eye on cholesterol levels, instead of waiting until they’re older when it cane be more difficult to control.

Screening for high cholesterol under age 35 is controversial, but some doctors believe earlier intervention is essential.
