From the National Institute of Health. Calculate your risk of having a heart attack in the next 10 years based on your
Cholesterol (Total and HDL), age, gender and systolic blood pressure.

Boy... I was a little worried doing that!!! Only a 1% chance!!!

Thanks!!!

My risk HAD BEEN 4% in 2000 prior to starting Atkins (see my cholesterol in the other thread) and would have increased to 6% today (with me being 3 years older) if I'd done nothing.

My risk is now 2% today (and hopefully will drop more) after being on the Atkins diet for 2 1/2 weeks.
