Detailed description

Fifty high Cardiovascular Disease Risk (CVD) risk clinic patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a series of educational pamphlets on CVD risk reduction plus a telephone-based CVD risk reduction curriculum delivered over 24 weeks \[intervention arm\], or the educational pamphlets alone \[control arm\]. Anthropomorphic data, blood pressure and lipid profiles will be obtained from patients to assess the efficacy of the intervention in reducing blood pressure and serum low-density lipoprotein levels (LDL).
