tremendous strides in educating americans about making personal lifestyle changes to improve their health and lower their risk for heart disease. only about 18% of americans now smoke. many americans have improved their eating and exercise habits. but overall, we have an epidemic of obesity in the united states and that commonly leads to issues with high cholesterol, high blood pressure and diabetes. all are huge contributors to heart disease. let's talk about cholesterol. you brought some portable lab testing equipment with you today and just a little while ago, you checked my cholesterol. tell the viewers about the test. it's a simple test. the same test we use at minuteclinic to perform cholesterol screening and monitoring exams. we perform these exams for those who might be concerned that their cholesterol

diagnosed with and are keeping track of their numbers to report back to their primary care provider. you have a problem or not, those 20-45 years of age should get their cholesterol checked at least every 5 years; more found to be high. and those over 45, should get it checked more often as well. we prick your finger. draw some blood and enter the sample into our testing equipment. the results take about 5 minutes. ideally, the patient fasts for at least to the test, but mandatory. ok, it's been 5 minutes, so can you found with my we look at three numbers with this test the first is your ldl cholesterol. this is the cholesterol that can build up in the walls of your arteries and increase chances of heart disease. sometimes called the "bad" cholesterol. your ldl was: xx. less than 100 is optimal.

considered borderline high. 160-180 is high and 190+ is considered very high. the second number is your hdl cholesterol. it's called your "good" cholesterol because it protects against heart disease by taking bad cholesterol out of your blood. anything 60+ is considered protective for heart disease. if it's 40 or lower, it's a sign that you are a major risk for heart disease. your number was xx. and what about my total cholesterol? your total cholesterol was xx. it combines the ldl and the hdl. anything less than 200 is optimal. anything 240 or above is high. now, if someone is borderline for high cholesterol, what lifestyle modifications need to be made? lose weight by making modifications to your diet and eating heart healthy foods eliminate trans fats found in many fried foods and packaged products like cookies, snack cakes and crackers eliminate saturated meats and dairy meat, eat more eat foods rich in salmon, walnuts, increase soluble lentils and add whey protein sold in drug stores and what happens if monitor your them checked every couple months to numbers need to see your recommend that statin. but always necessary lifestyle eight o'clock hour...

san bernadino terrorist syed farook's phone citing privacy issues for not only their customers but all americans. this fight could potentially end up before the supreme court. tech expert dave hatter tells us more about the push back and what

by eric tucker and tami abdollah associated press magistrate judge has ordered apple break into a work- by a gunman in the mass shooting in san bernardino, significant legal victory for the justice department in an ongoing policy battle between digital privacy and national security. apple ceo tim cook immediately objected, setting the stage for a high-stakes legal fight between silicon valley and the federal government. the result could have extraordinary implications. here are some questions and answers about what has unfolded: q. what did the judge decide? a. magistrate judge sheri pym, a former federal prosecutor, ordered apple inc. to help the fbi hack into an encrypted iphone used by syed farook, who along with his wife, tashfeen malik, killed 14 people in december in the worst terror attack on u.s. soil since sept. 11, 2001. the phone was provided to him by san bernardino county, where he worked as a government health inspector. prosecutors say they don't know whether anything relevant is on the phone but can't access the information because they don't know the password and apple won't cooperate. q. what makes this ruling so important? a. federal law

technology companies have long been at an impasse about how to balance digital privacy for consumers against the responsibility of federal agents and police to investigate crimes or terrorism. the obama administration has acknowledged encryption as valuable for privacy protection but, until now, had struggled to identify a major case that shows how apple's encryption can hobble their investigations. q. how's apple supposed to help? a. the judge's order forces apple to create and supply highly specialized software that the fbi can load onto the iphone. that software would bypass a self- destruct feature that erases the phone's data after too many attempts to guess the passcode. the fbi wants to be able to try different combinations in rapid sequence until it finds the q. what impact will apple users? a. the justice asking apple only to help unlock the iphone used by said the software should include a "unique identifier" so that it can't be used to unlock it's unclear how readily the adapted to work phones. and the fbi u.s. intelligence agencies and allies that are cook warned, "once created, the technique could be used over and over number of devices.

master key, capable of opening hundreds of millions of locks from restaurants and banks to stores and homes." q. why does the justice department need the information off the phone in the first place? a. prosecutors say they think the device could hold clues about who the couple communicated with before and after the shooting and where they traveled. q. what did apple say? a. the government asked the judge to rule in its favor in a closed hearing in which apple did not participate. after the ruling, in a strongly worded message to its customers early wednesday, cook warned that the judge's order would set a "dangerous precedent." he said the company was being asked to take an "unprecedented step" that would threaten the security of apple's customers. the company defended its use of encryption as the only way to keep its customers' personal data their music, private conversations and photos from being hacked. the statement foreshadows a fierce legal fight. q. how is this legal? a. pym relied on the 1789 all writs act, which has been used many times in the past by the government to require a third party to aid law enforcement in its investigation. apple's ceo said the government was trying to dangerously expand what the law requires a third party to do. he said the government could require apple to build surveillance software or more to help law enforcement. in a months-long federal case in new york, another federal judge has delayed ruling on whether the law can compel apple to help the government break the security on its devices. that case remains pending. read more here: http: coming up... if you're headed to

techniques and jiu- jitsu moves that really anyone could apply! i will probably wear some of my academy branded stuff so we can get our logo out. there is a big rise right now in jiu- jitsu and mma culture. it has hit much more from major network tv, songs, espn and more. i would say it's very trendy right now to train jiu-jitsu versus mma because mma is much more brutal and violent. i think watching a fight at home see's that jiu- jitsu is being applied in a fight and when the commentators speak about it they talk about it with grace and not violence thus making it more appealing. lastly i think 1 person who has really put jiu- jitsu on the map is rhonda rousey because of all her famous armbar and shes been on everything that is main stream media. a lot of females look up to her and

icon in female sports. she won the espy award this year for the best athlete. if you can just link our website: www.limitlessbjj.c om robbie malof just opened a new studio, he is an award-winning 'jiu jitsu' similar to mma instructor in cincinnati and this is a growing trend in working out etc. many young woman are also signing up. other info gym address: 2300 florence ave. walnut hills, oh 45206 513-221-1604 or 513- 702-2280 if you can find a full list of classes at our website: www.limitlessbjj.c om coming up on the
