Your husband is a ticking time bomb. The good news is he can do several things to lower his risks.
Niacin along with fish oils will lower cholesterol and not interfer with liver functions. An aspirin a day will also help.
A diet of lean meat, fruits and veggies (not white potatoes) will help him lose weught and not feel hungry. A mild exersise plan (30 min a day) will benefit him greatly.
Instead of ordering him to eat like this, you can adopt these habits as well...it's more fun when you have a support buddy.
I wish you and your hubby the best.
high bp and high cholesterol along with being overweight will greatly increase his chances of having a heart attack.
