[The National Cholesterol Education Program].
Following a recommendation by the US Consensus Conference of December 1984, a National Cholesterol Education Program was initiated by about 30 different organizations. This program mainly addresses health professionals, such as physicians, nurses, dietitians etc. One of its objectives is to give physicians clear guidelines as to type and timing of interventions (diet, drugs). The program further comprises an extensive advertising campaign with the aim of reducing risk factors mainly by popularizing health-oriented nutrition.
