Researchers have found that children as young as 10 years have "fatty streaks" in their arteries that may develop later into artery - narrowing plaques. Does that mean that all children should have their cholesterol level tested? What treatment, if any, should be given to children with elevated cholesterol levels?

This means they should have repeated "measurements, before any definite diagnosis is made. As with adults, high blood pressure, obesity, diabetes and cigarette - smoking, in addition to high blood cholesterol, put children and teens at greater risk of heart disease. However, children 'shouldn't need cholesterol testing on'a routine basis unless there is documented family history of coronary artery disease before age * 50 or a family history of extremely high cholesterol. High risk children should be checked by the time they are about 10 years old. If your child has elevated blood cholesterol levels or other risk factors for heart disease, don't attempt treatment on your own. Extreme low - fat diets and other preventive measures that work well for adults may do more harm than good in children, particularly those under the age of two! Consult your pediatrician for advice. There are sensible lifestyle choices that benefit your whole family. Researchers believe that elevated blood cholesterol levels in adults result from poor eating habits developed. from birth. , pr " Sougog Citizen -- Tuesday, February 27, 1996 --11 Pp Experts agree that moderate reductions in fat, and they stress "moder- ate", are safe for all child- ren over the age of two, even those who don't have any evident risk factors. So give children a head start towards heart health by promoting healthy eating, " encouraging physical activity and strongly discouraging smoking.
