Answer to Question 1

Fiber, in particular the soluble type, has been shown to lower LDL cholesterol. Soluble fiber dissolves in water and forms a gel-like substance that encloses food particles. This property helps bind and excrete fats from the body. Soluble fibers also bind intestinal bile acids that could be recycled into additional cholesterol. Soluble fibers are found primarily in oats, fruits, barley, legumes, and psyllium.

Answer to Question 2

An extramarital affair can contribute to a cardiac event. Eighty percent of post-sex heart attack deaths occur in people following sex in a hotel room with someone other than their spouse. It is believed that this is due to higher levels of arousal, resulting in a sudden and sustained heart rate that an unconditioned heart is unable to tolerate. Sex with one's regular partner is not associated with a heart attack.
