<![CDATA[The phenomenon of hypercholesterolemia has become problematic both in the world and in Indonesia because high cholesterol levels (hypercholesterolemia) are the main risk factor for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and have implications for an increase in mortality due to hypercholesterolemia, which is 73%. Hypercholesterolemia is closely related to risk factors such as age, gender, diet, smoking, lack of physical activity, BMI, and other related clinical conditions such as triglycerides, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension.
