title: The influence of EDTA salts plus multivitamin-trace mineral therapy upon total serum cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.
abstract: For a number of years, the principal attention was accorded total serum cholesterol as a possible predictor of cardiovascular pathosis. More recently, emphasis has been shifted to the high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Now consideration is turning to the ratio of total serum cholesterol to high-density lipoproteins. In fact, it is now stated that a ratio of 4.5 is the ideal combination in terms of cardiovascular health. This report adds credence to this "ideal" ratio for chronic degenerative disorders.
