Three small and big health

Living conditions have improved, and there are more and more physical problems. In recent years, the "three highs" are like an alarm hanging over people's heads, reminding us at all times that exceeding the standard will light up a "red light" and health is on the verge of danger. "Three highs" refers to hyperlipidemia, hypertension and hyperglycemia, among which hyperlipidemia is called "the disease of modern civilization", which means "the disease of wealth". Hyperlipidemia is mostly due to excessive intake of cholesterol and fatty acids in the diet, which leads to higher levels of triglycerides and cholesterol in human blood than normal. Hyperlipidemia may cause fatty liver, diabetes, coronary heart disease, cerebral hemorrhage and other diseases, which seriously harms human health.

With the improvement of people's living conditions, hyperlipidemia is a disease with more and more patients, which is closely related to our lives. Among them, diet and blood lipids are inextricably linked, which can not only increase blood lipids, but also reduce blood lipids. The key depends on how you choose. Let's have a look.

Let's first understand the source of blood lipids in the human body. There are two main sources of blood lipids in human body: endogenous and exogenous. 70% of human blood lipids are synthesized in the body, and only 30% are obtained from food. The relationship between them is one after another.

It can be seen that blood lipids are closely related to diet. If you eat foods rich in cholesterol and fat for a long time, the human body can't absorb and digest them in time, and fat will accumulate in blood vessels, which will easily lead to hyperlipidemia. For patients with hyperlipidemia, proper diet can "save lives"; If you eat it wrong, your diet may be "fatal".

Preserved food

Many people like to eat pickled food, whether it's side dishes and salted duck eggs when they drink porridge, or bacon, salted duck and bacon they usually eat. This kind of food contains a lot of "invisible salt", and the sodium ions contained in the salt will stimulate blood vessels and aggravate blood vessel blockage. Therefore, it is suggested that patients with hyperlipidemia should try to reduce or not eat pickled food and control the salt intake below 5 grams per day.

courage

Some people like to eat offal such as beef offal, mutton offal soup, pig liver and sheep brain. Animal viscera is rich in nutrition and contains a lot of cholesterol, which will aggravate hyperlipidemia and accelerate the occurrence of arteriosclerosis after eating, thus causing hypertension, diabetes and coronary heart disease. Therefore, patients with hyperlipidemia should eat less animal viscera, and eat 1-2 times a week, and each time can not exceed 50 grams.

fried food

Fried foods such as hamburgers, French fries, fried fish and fried chicken wings are really delicious, crispy outside and tender inside, and rich in taste, which makes people unable to stop eating. However, this kind of food contains a lot of fat, which will increase the content of bad cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, thus causing the increase of blood lipids. Therefore, it is suggested that patients with hyperlipidemia eat less of this kind of food, up to 1-2 times a week, and each time should not exceed 150g. In addition, patients with hyperlipidemia should pay attention to the daily use of oil, preferably not less than 15g and not more than 25g.

apple

Apples are rich in vitamins, fruit acids and pectin. Dietary fiber can be combined with bile acids to promote cholesterol excretion, inhibit cholesterol absorption and reduce blood lipids to some extent. It is suggested that patients with hyperlipidemia can eat an apple every day to reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

onion

Patients with hyperlipidemia should take onions as one of their daily foods. Onion contains more vitamins and less oil, which can dilate and strengthen blood vessels, reduce blood viscosity and reduce blood vessel pressure. Patients insist that onions are very helpful for lowering blood fat. Therefore, it is recommended that patients with hyperlipidemia eat 2-3 onions a day, raw or fried.

corn

Corn is low in fat and sugar, and contains some protein and saturated fatty acids. Corn can promote the decomposition of cholesterol in blood and reduce the fat accumulated in blood vessels, thus ensuring the smooth flow of blood vessels and helping to reduce blood lipids to some extent. Therefore, it is suggested that patients with hyperlipidemia can eat a corn every day to reduce carbohydrate intake. It is best to eat corn with water to ensure its original nutrition.

In short, as far as the current medical level is concerned, hyperlipidemia cannot be completely cured, and patients need to take drugs for life to control blood lipids. Therefore, it is recommended that you learn more about relevant knowledge, focus on a light diet, control your weight within the normal range, and reduce the risk of hyperlipidemia. Patients with hyperlipidemia should pay more attention in their daily life, and try to eat less or no greasy and high-sugar food, so as not to aggravate their condition.
