Answer:

The patient should make lifestyle changes to healthier foods and start an exercise plan to reduce his weight by 30 pounds.

Explanation:

We know that the patient weighs 225 pounds, and his height is 6 feet. With this information, we can determine his Body Mass Index (BMI) using the formula:

BMI= weight/(height)²

BMI= 225/(6)²

BMI= 30.5

Once that we calculated his BMI, we compare the result with the reference chart, here we can see that for his height. he is obese. This coincides with the fact that he has been diagnosed with atherosclerosis. His body has been placing the extra fat in the arteries.

The best plan for Jabob would be to make a lifestyle change to healthier foods and an exercise plan that helps him to lose weight so that his BMI would be approximately 25 and his weight of 195 pounds. Also, this plan will reduce cholesterol levels.
