Cholestérol

Feuille de route pour le cholestérol

The WHF Roadmap for Cholesterol identifies roadblocks and suggests potential solutions to improve cardiovascular health and help reach the target set out in the Sustainable Development Goals: achieve a 30% reduction in NCDs, including CVD, by 2030.

The WHF Roadmap for Cholesterol – 2022 Update aims to reduce the global burden of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, which is responsible for 85% of the 20.5 million cardiovascular disease-related deaths worldwide every year. Atherosclerosis is a silent condition caused by high cholesterol that develops throughout a person’s lifespan and can lead to sudden death. The new Roadmap, which builds on the previous 2017 edition, shows how targeting cholesterol can help reduce atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and save lives.
