Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Fasting serum Total Cholestrol and serum Triglicerides will be collected. High Density Lipid Cholestrol and Low Density Lipid Cholestrol will also be requested, as markers of the anti- and pro-atherogenic lipid particles. The reason for this is that some people with mildly increased Total Cholestrol may actually be at lower risk because their High Density Lipid Cholestrol is high and their Low Density Lipid Cholestrol is relatively low.[At 6 months post-initial NL-RISC consultation visit.]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Mortality[At 6 months post-initial NL-RISC consultation visit.];Any unplanned admissions to an in patient unit within 12 months, of first clinic visit[At 6 months post-initial NL-RISC consultation visit.];Improvement in baseline cardiovascular risk profile through comparison of the following measures:<br>Manual Blood Pressure via sphygmomanometer<br>Weigh via electronic scales<br>Waist Circumference by tape measure starting at the top of the hip bone, and then bring it all the way around -- level with the umbilicus. <br>Mood Status via the cardiac depression Scale and the health related quality of life tool<br>Exercise via the 7 day international physical activity recall questionnaire<br>Smoking, alcohol and diet via self report<br>Diabetes via Glycosylated hemoglobin Hb1AC serum levels[At 6 months post-initial NL-RISC consultation visit.]
