Dr. Simon Poole and Chef Amy Riolo Release a Groundbreaking Guide to Managing Cholesterol

WASHINGTON - Oct. 24, 2025 - PRLog -- Now available for purchase, Managing Cholesterol For Dummies demystifies cholesterol and presents cutting-edge science in cholesterol management. With evidence-based strategies and practical solutions, the book provides the most up-to-date knowledge for preventing, managing, and lowering cholesterol—knowledge that has evolved dramatically in recent years.

According to the World Health Organization, "the global prevalence of raised total cholesterol among adults was 39% (37% for males and 40% for females)." Managing Cholesterol For Dummies redefines the cholesterol conversation. It shows that it is not simply cholesterol itself, but the oxidation of cholesterol and the resulting inflammation, that drive cardiovascular disease. The book explains how to address "oxidative stress" through lifestyle, medical treatment, and nutrition—and, for the first time, pairs these insights with easy recipes rich in antioxidants to reduce oxidation, calm inflammation, and protect long-term health.

For decades, cholesterol has been at the center of controversy and oversimplification. Now readers have a guide that cuts through the noise with clarity. By dispelling myths, addressing controversies, and embracing the new science of inflammation and oxidation, Managing Cholesterol For Dummies equips people with the knowledge to safeguard their future. For anyone serious about protecting their heart and health, the time to act is now.
