Aims: To issue a consensus statement on Lipids and Cardiovascular Health and the impact of their
interrelationship in Nigerian Population.
Study Design: Experts from a range of relevant disciplines, deliberated on different aspects of Lipids
and Cardiovascular Health in the Nigerian Population at a Summit.

Research.
Methodology: Presentations were made on central themes after which expert participants split into
four different groups to consider the questions relevant to different sub themes of the title. Consensus
was arrived at, from presentations of groups at plenary.
Conclusion: With the increase in the prevalence of NCDs, especially Cardiovascular Disease in
Nigeria, and the documented evidence of deleterious effects of lipids, the expert panel called for an
urgent need to advocate for the general public and health professionals to make heart-friendly choices
in food consumption.
