Obama health check up reform needed
Sunday, 07 March 2010 08:29
Stress raises cholesterol levels because cortisol, the adrenal hormone that helps us cope with stress, is made from cholesterol. So, it is actually a healthy sign that President Obama’s cholesterol has gone up – he’s coping with lots of stress. If we want his cholesterol down we should reduce his stress by passing a health reform bill – one that requires doctors understand basic physiology, and not just how to prescribe cholesterol-lowering drugs.
