The 15 also include annual measurement of plasma cholesterol. Finding the evidence for that would be a good EBLM topic.

Exercise, exercise and more exercise; its distinct omission from the 15 commandments is disappointing. Regular moderate exercise 30 minutes 4-5 times per week has prfound impact on metabolic and cardiovascular fitness.
Smoking cessation and diet advice was mentioned though.
