I am 32 and have been on all kinds of Colesterol meds since I was 19! When you have a higer lipid count this will effect your liver. Because the fat does build up on your liver. I have gotten my colesterol under control with meds and diet and exersize. Also your sister may want to cut out white carbs because this can raise the lipid levels and inturn make her liver count very high. I know I had to give up almost all white carbs, but feel so much better. Good luck.
