risk reduction

Participants receive intensive case management for CHD risk reduction for 15 months and then a maintenance program for a minimum of 12 months. Lifestyle modification was strongly emphasized as a critical component of achieving CHD prevention goals. Dietary management was emphasized, including recommendation of a low saturated fat (less than 7% of caloric intake), low cholesterol (\< 150 mg/day), mainly plant-based diet with calorie restrictions for overweight/obese persons. Stress management and coping skills were emphasized, including a regular exercise regimen (≥ 30 minutes of moderate intensity on most days). Cigarette smokers were encouraged to join a stop smoking program.
