Q: Depending upon how high your cholesterol levels are, your doctor will suggest lifestyle changes with or without medications to help lower your levels. If your cholesterol levels are only borderline high, lifestyle changes alone may be enough to get you back in the normal range. Positive lifestyle changes you can make include: Incorporating more aerobic exercise three to five sessions of thirty minutes or more each week is recommended. Aerobic exercise includes things like swimming, biking, jogging, or brisk walking anything that elevates your heart rate continuously for thirty minutes or more. Exercise specifically raises your HDL levels (good cholesterol), which helps to improve your overall cholesterol profile. Eating a healthier diet. Specifically, consuming more fruits and vegetables and reducing fat consumption can help to lower your cholesterol levels. Fiber in particular is one of the mainstay dietary changes to lower cholesterol, so try increasing sources of soluble fiber, such as oatmeal, beans, peas, rice bran, barley, citrus fruits, and strawberries. Losing weight if you are overweight or obese talk to your doctor about healthy weight loss goals for you, and where your ideal body weight should be based on your height and build. If lifestyle changes alone are insufficient to adequately reduce your cholesterol levels, your doctor will recommend that you begin medical treatment. The usual first-line medication is a "statin," such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor). Once you begin medical treatment, your doctor will advise follow-up blood tests to monitor your cholesterol profile and the degree of improvement. If you have been diagnosed with high cholesterol, you will most likely need to continue with positive lifestyle changes and medical treatment for the rest of your life. If you stop treatment for any reason, your high cholesterol levels are likely to return. If you find that side effects of medication are a concern for you, you can ask your doctor for an alternative medication to try, as there are plenty of treatment options for elevated cholesterol.
A: Make lifestyle changes. Take a statin medication. Continue with treatment for the rest of your life.

Article: You can paint or add wallpaper to the study room if you want, but it's best to stick with a light color.

For instance, you could choose to paint the walls ice blue, cream, light green, or pastel yellow. Incorporating your favorite color into the room can make it feel more homey. You could add color with throw pillows, an area rug, curtains, or artwork. Choose pieces that speak to you and show your personality. Don't make the room too busy thoughstick with mostly neutral colors and a few bold accent pieces. For instance, if your walls are white and your furniture is black, hang up printed curtains to give the space some personality. You could also add a lampshade or area rug in a complementary color. Posters, prints, and pictures are great ways to personalize the space. Make the most of your wall space by hanging up decor that reflects your personality. You could add a cork board to pin photos, flyers, and ticket stubs on, or hang framed pictures of your friends and family.

If you collect items from sculptures to baseball cards, you can set them out in your study room. Install a floating shelf to highlight your items, or distribute them throughout the space.

Q: Many amps contain additional controls, such as ones for special effects like chorus, tremolo, delay, and reverb. Note, however, that you can often achieve a higher quality tone by using effects pedals to produce these effects. The most common effect to come equipped with an amp is reverb. The reverb effect produces a larger sound by simulating the sound wave bouncing off multiple surfaces. The reverb effect is subtle but powerful, and it can be used for a wide array of sounds. The world of guitar pedals (also called effects pedals, or stomp boxes) is nearly endless. The most versatile pedals are delay, distortion, and compression. Effect pedals range from about $30 to around $1,000. Effects pedals are typically powered by a 9V battery and must go in between your guitar and your amplifier in the chain. Plug your guitar into one end (the input) and your amp into the other end (the output), then use your foot to activate the effect while playing. Search online for a better idea of what effects and amplifier settings your favorite recordings are using. Classic/hard rock uses distortion/overdrive, flanger or phase, wah-wah, and delay. Blues guitar uses a variety of overdrives and amp simulator pedals. Country guitar utilizes tremolo and reverb. Shoegaze uses almost every pedal you can imagine but especially utilizes reverb, distortion, fuzz, delay, chorus, and tremolo. Once you get an understanding of your guitar needs you can invest in an amp that suits you. If you are playing out of a small practice amp, the best upgrade you should consider is a combo tube amp. For tube combo amps, you can usually get away with a single 12" speaker, but many prefer the louder cousin, two 12" speakers. Classic tube combo amps are made by Marshall, Fender, and Vox. You can also upgrade to a stack which consists of a guitar (or bass) head and a cabinet of two to four speakers.
A:
Experiment with other controls on your guitar amp. Use additional pedals. Upgrade your amplifier.
