guidelines to raise HDL levels

Today in Cardiology: "Cardiologists and other experts at Johns Hopkins University have issued interim guidelines for physicians on how best to treat low levels of HDL cholesterol and help keep arteries clear from LDL buildup.
In an article published online in the New England Journal of Medicine, the researchers reported that existing strategies to prevent heart disease have not addressed the best means to raise HDL cholesterol and instead have focused heavily on lowering LDL cholesterol."
