Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and presented as frequency distributions, percentages, means, standard deviations, medians, and interquartile ranges. Results: The findings showed that 18 respondents (60.0%) had high cholesterol levels, while 12 (40.0%) had normal levels. Regarding blood pressure, 17 respondents (56.7%) had hypertension, whereas 13 (43.3%) did not. The mean cholesterol level was 207.10 ± 32.017 mg/dL. The median systolic and diastolic blood pressure values were 142 mmHg and 90 mmHg, respectively.
