    I’d argue that has a lot more to do with genetics and not so much to do with anger.

    Sounds like you need statins and not anger management.

      Statins would not have helped. My cholesterol was ideal. What got me was stress and anger. They, and their buddy hypertension, create tears in your blood vessels which the body patches up with our organic spackle…cholesterol. Even if your lipid levels are ideal, the core function of cholesterol would still kill you if the core cause of the tearing is not addressed.
