Heart healthy eating for kids with familial hypercholesterolemia

Two senior dieticians at Perth Children’s Hospital present on the familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and diet relationship. They outline what is a heart healthy diet for FH and provide some simple ideas for healthy food swaps. FH is the most common and serious cause of inherited high cholesterol. When undetected and untreated, FH leads to premature coronary artery disease, with half of all men and nearly a third of women suffering a fatal or non-fatal heart attack by the age of 60. FH is a genetic condition that passes from one generation to the next and can be inherited by both men and women.
