Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) presents as a silent yet perilous condition affecting approximately 1 in 200-300 individuals worldwide. This inherited genetic disorder results in abnormally high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in the blood, significantly increasing the risk of premature cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. With a 50% likelihood of cardiovascular disease striking males with FH before their 55th birthday and a 33% probability for females before their 60th birthday, it becomes incumbent upon society to raise awareness about FH and take proactive measures to assist those affected. Leading consultant cardiologist Dr Dushyant Maradia provides tips to try and combat the condition.
