About MB Cholesterol Risk Calculator Software
MB Cholesterol Risk Calculator is a simple health software
with an easy to use interface. The program is designed to calculate the
risk of a person suffering from a heart attack in the next ten years
depending on cholesterol levels and their effects.
Blood Cholesterol level is one of major risk factors for any heart
disease. Cholesterol is a waxy substance in our body that protects our
nerves. Too much of cholesterol can lead to accumulation in arteries and
thus reduce the blood supply to the heart. This may result in a stroke
or heart attack. The total cholesterol level is the sum of all the
cholesterol in your blood. The HDL cholesterol is the good cholesterol
and protects against heart disease. The LDL cholesterol is the bad
cholesterol and is the main reason for blockage in the arteries.
A heart attack can be
defined as the condition that occurs when a part of the heart’s wall
muscles is deprived of blood. This may lead to the death of some muscle
cells. This happens when blood supply isn’t regular and is blocked by
fat deposits or blockages. This software is based on the Framingham
Heart Study. This software can be used as guideline to take preventive
measures that can eliminate or reduce the risk of a heart attack.

that have been taken into consideration include:
1. Gender
2. Age
