摘要：
The amino acid homocysteine is getting increased recognition as cholesterol's partner in causing heart attacks and strokes. The mounting clinical evidence makes it likely that screening tests for this factor will be part of routine laboratory workups. Learn what homocysteine does to arteries and how to lower your risk of developing coronary artery disease.
