Classical Music Can Lower Cholesterol

Posted at 8:21 pm under Current Events in the News, Health

Recent studies conclude that prescribing music can improve heart health and lower cholesterol levels. If a person listens to 30 minutes of their favorite music every day, not only can it help to relax mentally but it can also benefit physically by expanding and clearing blood vessels.

It is believed that this happens due to a release into the bloodstream of nitric oxide, which helps to prevent the build-up of blood clots and harmful cholesterol.

The purpose of the research was to find cheaper, nonpharmacological ways to help us improve patients’ heart health. Other benefits included increased endurance on a treadmill by up to 15% (most participants did not even realize they were working harder).

Would adding music help Leptorexin be an effective diet solution? I’m not sure…
