Study Uses Injection To Dramatically Reduce Cholesterol

Houston doctors are experimenting with a drug that dramatically reduces “bad cholesterol”. There are a number of cholesterol-lowering medications out there, but this particular shot targets the genetic cause of high cholesterol, reducing it by 50-60%. This could have great potential for those who suffer of high cholesterol due to disorders like Familial Hypercholesterolemia or those who are statin-intolerant. This study is still seeking volunteers. Read more here.
