excellent for our practies.
I would recommend this course as an excellent review of the subject.
A very neatly organized presentation on the pathophysiology of hyperlipidemia and the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. I learned much about what is known in Western medicine, but I felt the Chinese medicine explanations of theory were a bit oversimplified. But as an introduction to the problem, which is clearly a major burden on our society, it is a useful contribution to my understanding and I expect to other practitioners.
Very well-presented.
