| Use of vitamin E reduced the risk of all-cause mortality [relative risk (RR) = 0.66; 95% CI: 0.53, 0.83] and risk of coronary disease mortality (RR = 0.53; 95% CI: 0.34, 0.84). Use of vitamin E at two points in time was also associated with reduced risk of total mortality compared with that in persons who did not use any vitamin supplements. Effects were strongest for coronary heart disease mortality (RR = 0.37; 95% CI: 0.15, 0.90). The RR for cancer mortality was 0.41 (95% CI: 0.15, 1.08). Simultaneous use of vitamins E and C was associated with a lower risk of total mortality (RR = 0.58; 95% CI: 0.42, 0.79) and coronary mortality (RR = 0.47; 95% CI: 0.25, 0.87). |

| In conclusion, our findings suggest that vitamin C supplement users may be at lower risk of CHD. We found no evidence for a gradient in risk across the relatively narrow range of intakes of vitamin C from diet in our study population. Although we cannot exclude a physiologic benefit of supplemental vitamin C, we also cannot exclude the possibility that the association may be attributed to some unmeasured health-seeking characteristic among vitamin C supplement users. |

| In patients with acute myocardial infarctions (MIs), cholesterol levels are no longer valid after 24 h from presentation because acute MI causes a rapid decline in serum levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of acute MI on the total cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio and the LDL cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio.

| Cholesterol is a waxy fat that is present in all human beings. Two sources contribute to the amount of cholesterol in the human body. First, the liver manufactures about 80 percent of it. Second, people consume it by eating animal products such as meat, eggs and dairy products. Cholesterol is carried through the bloodstream by certain proteins (apolipoproteins). |

| HDL is the good cholesterol because it protects the arteries from the atherosclerosis process. HDL cholesterol extracts cholesterol particles from the artery walls and transports them to the liver to be disposed through the bile. It also interferes with the accumulation of LDL cholesterol particles in the artery walls. |
