The less-discussed triglycerides also lead to heart attack and stroke.
In the last 30 years, a cardiac foe that lurks in the bloodstream has seen its ranks swell to new heights.
No, not cholesterol. The proportion of Americans with high cholesterol has actually fallen, thanks largely to the emergence of a cholesterol-busting class of drugs called statins. One of those pharmaceuticals, Lipitor, has been the nation's best-selling drug several years running.
Triglycerides, however, are on the rise, according to a study presented by a Jacksonville-based health organization at the American Heart Association's annual conference Sunday.
About one out of three Americans have too many triglycerides in their blood, the National Lipid Association said in the report. That's a 10 percent increase from 1976 levels.
Blame the nation's worsening eating habits, said the study's author, Jerome Cohen, an internal medicine and cardiology professor at St. Louis University.
"When we eat too much of the wrong foods and don't exercise enough, the lipids accumulate in the body and in the arteries. This is what leads over time to diseases like heart attack and stroke. And these are our No. 1 and No. 3 killers," Cohen said.
The three key lipids when it comes to cardiac health are LDL (aka "bad" cholesterol), HDL ("good" cholesterol) and triglycerides (fat found in blood).

Erectile dysfunction, or impotence, is the inability to achieve or maintain an erection long enough for the penis to enter the vagina and engage in sexual intercourse. Normally, an erection occurs when your imagination or one or more senses (vision, hearing, touch, smell, and taste) are stimulated and you become aroused.
Erection problems will usually produce a significant psychological and emotional reaction in most men. This is often described as a pattern of anxiety and stress that can further interfere with normal sexual function. This "performance anxiety" needs to be recognized and addressed by your doctor. |

Much of this applause came from women as this gift was a potentially lifesaving test used in screening for the genes that can cause breast cancer.
Despite having the exclusive right to conduct the tests in Australia and New Zealand, Genetic Technologies said it would not attempt to stop health providers such as public hospitals from conducting the tests free of charge.
The genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, have been detected in up to 10 per cent of breast cancers and women with the BRCA genes can be from 40 to 85 per cent more likely to get the disease than those without it.
