Correct understanding of hyperlipidemia

Mondo Health Updated on 2024-03-07

Hyperlipidemia is a disorder of lipid metabolism in the body, resulting in an increase in blood lipid levels.

It is related to genetics, nutrition, diet, drugs and other factors, and it is easy to cause atherosclerosis and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as acute myocardial infarction and stroke, which seriously endangers human health.

1. What are the blood lipids?

High-density lipoprotein (HDL-C).

Low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C).

Total cholesterol (TC).

Triglycerides (TG).

2. Why are blood lipids good and bad?

Good blood lipids HDL, this value is high, you don't need to take any medicine, because it is the "scavenger" of blood vessels, and has been helping the human body clean up the garbage in the blood vessels.

Ascorvy The increase of low-density lipoprotein will promote the inflammatory damage of the vascular endothelium, so that the low-density lipoprotein is deposited under the intima of the blood vessel wall, at this time, various inflammatory factors enter the intima and remove the low-density lipoprotein, leaving foam cells, that is, residual garbage, which will accumulate under the vascular endothelium, forming atherosclerosis and causing acute thrombosis, leading to myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and other diseases.

3. How is hyperlipidemia diagnosed?

4. What are the effects of hyperlipidemia on the body?

1.listlessness and dizziness after waking up in the morning;

2.paroxysmal blurred vision;

3.sleepiness after lunch;

4.Chest tightness and shortness of breath with activity.

5. Hyperlipidemia.

Lifestyle changes.

1.Reduce the intake of high-calorie foods: Dietary fat is the most important factor affecting blood lipids, and the intake of high-fat foods should not exceed 20%-30% of total calories. Saturated fatty acids 7% of total energy, the ratio of dietary saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids is 1:1:1, and the recommended daily intake of cholesterol is 300mg a day.

2.Quit smoking and limit alcohol: Smoking can induce vasospasm, increase blood cholesterol and triglycerides, decrease the content of high-density lipoprotein, and increase the risk factors of coronary heart disease; Moderate drinking can be done in small amounts, and excessive alcohol consumption will cause blood lipids to rise and increase the harm of hyperlipidemia.

3.Exercise and weight loss: Keep your weight within the ideal range and keep your BMI at 18Between 5 and 24, the rate of weight loss is usually 05-1.0kg is appropriate.

Drugs**. 1.Statins: Commonly used drugs are rosuvastatin, atorvastatin, etc., which can reduce cholesterol and LDL levels, and can also stabilize or shrink plaques, thereby reducing the occurrence of ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction.

2.Intestinal cholesterol absorption inhibitors: Commonly used drugs include ezetimibe, which can inhibit the absorption of cholesterol from diet and bile.

3.Bile acid chelators: Commonly used drugs are cholestyramine, which can block the enterohepatic circulation of bile acid. Promotes the excretion of bile in the stool and reduces the absorption of cholesterol.

*Primary disease

* Diseases secondary to hypothyroidism and renal insufficiency that lead to hyperlipidemia.

6. Dietary precautions for hyperlipidemia.

7. Stabilize blood lipids and maintain three good habits.

Keep your mouth shut in the diet to keep light, low salt, low fat, eat a serving of vegetables such as: tomatoes, cucumbers, broccoli, etc. can help regulate blood lipids, drink 2000-2500ml of water a day to help thin the blood.

Proper exercise can promote metabolism in the body, reduce blood lipids, enhance resistance, increase blood vessel elasticity, and delay aging.

Regular work and rest: Irregular work and rest can easily cause abnormal blood lipid metabolism.

Based on the theories of nutritional science, traditional Chinese medicine and the current literature evidence of diet-related chronic diseases, eight principles and suggestions are put forward for the daily diet of people with hyperlipidemia.
