When it comes to what is the natural enemy of hyperlipidemia, I think this is the most understandable question for the general public on how to control blood lipid. In fact, if I have to say that there are natural enemies of high blood lipids, I think there are 3 natural enemies of high blood lipids, and I will tell you about them one by one.

I. High Blood Lipid Fear of Healthy Lifestyle

At this stage, many people's high blood lipids are actually caused by an unhealthy lifestyle. Speaking of unhealthy lifestyles, Dr. Zhang has actually popularized them many times, such as high-fat and high-protein diets, lack of exercise, overweight, sedentary lifestyle, staying up late and so on, all of which will push up your blood lipids. And for these patients, the best way to lower blood lipids is to improve their lifestyle.

In fact, high blood lipids in certain people can be lowered by improving their lifestyles. For example, in certain hypertriglyceridemia, triglycerides return to normal by controlling diet and increasing exercise. This kind of patients can be said to be many, but specific to each person still depends on the specific circumstances.

Second, high blood fat afraid of formal treatment

In fact, for many people with high blood lipids, improving lifestyle alone is not enough to reduce blood lipids to reach the standard state. At this time it is necessary to formal treatment, such as oral statin lipid-lowering drugs under the guidance of a doctor, certain triglyceride high a lot of people also need to take fenofibrate under the guidance of a doctor this kind of drug. In fact, these years about lipid-lowering drugs is still quite obvious update, for example, the new cholesterol-lowering drugs ezetimibe and PCSK9 inhibitors and so on, have become the control of blood lipid tool. So, if you have high blood lipid and the effect is not obvious by improving your lifestyle, this is the time to consider using some new lipid-lowering drugs under the guidance of your doctor.

Third, high blood fat is afraid you understand it

For hyperlipidemia, it can be said that most people usually do not have any symptoms to speak of, only when the laboratory test will find that the blood fat is elevated. Do not ignore this time, their own more knowledge about hyperlipidemia, may be beneficial to your condition control, after all, know the enemy and know the enemy a hundred battles. After all, knowing the enemy and knowing yourself is the best way to win a battle. Only by knowing can you face it correctly, don't you think so?

The above is Dr. Zhang's interpretation of the natural enemy of high blood lipids, and I hope that after reading this, we can all have a correct attitude to face high blood lipids, and we can all control the blood lipids.

Natural enemy, of course, is an exaggeration, many people put some food, tea class called high blood fat "natural enemy", such as: garlic, onions, buckwheat tea, cassia seed tea, etc., in fact, is not very accurate, these foods are to play a favorable role. Rather than say "natural enemy" is simply a food, rather than aOverall a good diet and lifestyle.

High blood lipid is a common problem in modern people, serious hyperlipidemia patients need to follow the doctor's instructions for drug treatment, of course, adjusting the diet and improve the lifestyle is the basis of all kinds of hyperlipidemia treatment, even if it is in the drug treatment at the same time, dietary therapy should also be carried out at the same time, because through the adjustment of the diet and lifestyle changes can make the plasma cholesterol lowering, improve the efficacy of lipid-lowering drugs, but also can It can also improve glucose tolerance, restore insulin function and reduce body weight.

So, to say that the natural enemies of hyperlipidemia would be these, I think:

First, reasonable diet

Reasonable diet includes: cereal coarse and fine mix (increase dietary fiber intake), eat more vegetables, fruits and potatoes, pay attention to increase the proportion of dark vegetables (accounted for half), often eat milk, beans or their products, often eat the right amount of fish, poultry, eggs, lean meat, less fat and mixed oil, eat more aquatic products, especially deep-sea fish, in order to increase the n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid intake. Eat light meals with less salt, quit smoking and limit alcohol. For people with elevated plasma TC, abstain from eating fatty meat, animal offal, margarine, creamy snacks, etc., and eat light meals with less salt.

Second, increase exercise to combat obesity and overweight

Obese people need to lose weight to an appropriate weight, keep daily energy intake not greater than energy expenditure, and no less than 150-300 minutes of moderate intensity exercise per week.

In addition, you can drink a moderate amount of tea, such as green tea, etc., on a daily basis, and eat a moderate amount of nuts, such as peanuts, pistachios, large almonds, etc., every week. Only by taking the improvement of lifestyle and dietary adjustments as the basis, combined with medications, and combined with the consumption of foods that help lower blood lipids (such as onion and garlic foods, coarse grains, legumes, etc.), can we have good results.

Genetic predisposition and bad habits are the natural enemies of high blood cholesterol!

1. 80% of the "natural enemies" of LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, which accounts for 60-70% of the total cholesterol, are related to genetic defects in the metabolism of cholesterol by the liver.

The cholesterol synthesized from food absorption, however, is only in the neighborhood of 20%. As a result, the vast majority of people with elevated cholesterol can often be traced back to people with hypercholesterolemia in their family and elders.

The vast majority of dietary cholesterol comes from animal foods, with meat, poultry and fish being the main sources; egg yolks, animal organs, dairy products and brain marrow being the most abundant, so people with high cholesterol should try not to eat them. Cholesterol in food is mostly free (free) cholesterol, a small amount of cholesterol esters. Cholesterol esters need to be hydrolyzed to free cholesterol by the enzyme pancreatic cholesterol esterase in order to be absorbed by the body. About 40% of the cholesterol in food is absorbed by the small intestine. Therefore, people with total cholesterol below 5.7mmol/L should eat whatever they want, except for the cholesterol-rich foods mentioned above, which should be consumed in moderation. It is possible and worthwhile for people taking statins to reduce their LDL by even 10-20% by eating less cholesterol-rich foods.

Cholesterol is an important component of various cell membranes in the human body, and is also an indispensable component for the synthesis of various hormones and nerve mediators, and is also indispensable for the transmission of nerve activity. Cholesterol is also an important form of energy storage in the human body, and he and the human brain nerve cell activity, the human body's immune function have an inseparable close relationship. Lower total cholesterol levels can also lead to increased risk of malignant tumors, reduced brain function, reduced immune function, increased incidence of infections, and increased risk of atrial fibrillation and cerebral hemorrhage, which has been widely confirmed by many international and national studies. Weighing the pros and cons in order to achieve the most effective reduction in the incidence of cardiovascular events and mortality, so LDL cholesterol must be stratified according to the number of risk factors to meet the standard, which is the most scientific; rather than the lower the better, it should be sharply reduced the lower the more dangerous.

Elevated triglycerides are affected by both genetic and environmental factors, and 80% of mild to moderate hypertriglyceridemia is related to excessive diet and unhealthy lifestyle, which are the natural enemies of most hypertriglyceridemia! Therefore, mild to moderate hypertriglyceridemia can be treated by strictly controlling high-calorie and heavy oil, heavy sugar, and refraining from alcoholism; at the same time, most of the hypertriglyceridemia can be restored to normal after losing weight by increasing sports, insisting on exercising every day, and quitting smoking and restricting alcohol consumption, so it is not recommended to treat it directly with medication.

Harmful effects of high triglycerides: it will lead to changes in the function of fat cells, infiltration into the liver to cause fatty liver, if left untreated it will form cirrhosis of the liver. Will also cause blood viscosity increase, high triglycerides often cause HDL cholesterol decrease thus increasing atherosclerosis, leading to cardiovascular disease. High triglycerides in the blood can also cause acute pancreatitis and other diseases.

The main cause of elevated triglycerides is poor lifestyle:

1. Improper diet: It is the main reason for elevated triglycerides. When eating a large number of animal and vegetable fats, excessive intake of carbohydrates and various types of sugar, including often drink sweet drinks, milk tea, various desserts, etc. will synthesize more triglycerides. Overeating produces obesity, often accompanied by hypertriglyceridemia.

2. Lifestyle: frequent smoking, especially alcohol abuse, in addition to mental stress or anxiety, etc., is also easy to trigger dyslipidemia, triglyceride elevation. Sedentary office of the long-term and computer cell phone dealings, lack of exercise, it is easy to lead to food calories into triglycerides, so that people become obese, but also produce insulin resistance prone to diabetes.

Harmful effects of high triglycerides: it will lead to changes in the function of fat cells, infiltration into the liver to cause fatty liver, if left untreated it will form cirrhosis of the liver. Will also cause the blood viscosity increase, triglyceride is often caused by high density lipoprotein cholesterol lower thus increasing atherosclerosis, resulting in cardiovascular and cerebral vascular diseases increased. The most frightening thing about severely elevated triglycerides in the blood is that they tend to cause acute necrotizing pancreatitis!

Hyperlipidemia is a chronic metabolic disease in which lipid metabolism is abnormal or disordered, resulting in abnormal lipid indices, what is the "natural enemy" of hyperlipidemia? Different people may have different answers, but if you let Pharmacist Li say, the natural enemy of hyperlipidemia is our "correct attitude".

What is the right attitude? For health, the correct attitude is to positively face up to the related disease problems, cherish health, love life, and have a sense of reverence for disease problems. Only with such a mentality can we be interested in understanding the problem of chronic diseases such as hyperlipidemia, to maintain self-discipline, to strengthen the control of blood lipids from the life, to understand the dangers of hyperlipidemia, to do a good job of regular monitoring, to understand the stratified management of hyperlipidemia, to reasonably control the level of blood lipids, and to reduce the cardiovascular health hazards caused by hyperlipidemia. Today we will briefly introduce you to the dangers of high blood lipids, and how to actively control blood lipids of those things.

Hyperlipidemia is the "invisible killer" that harms blood vessels.

Many friends think that hyperlipidemia is painless and has no obvious symptoms, so they ignore it, and this is precisely a cognitive misunderstanding brought about by the lack of a correct attitude towards disease and health. Elevated blood lipids, especially the elevation of LDL cholesterol, is one of the main causes of inflammatory reactions in the vascular endothelium, and elevated blood lipids will also be gradually formed under the damaged endothelium lipids buildup, although the body will start the appropriate mechanisms to remove these lipids, but the end result is that these lipids are oxidized to form a lipid core under the vessel wall, and eventually form atherosclerotic plaque problems.

Therefore, high blood lipid is the physiological basis and important risk factor leading to atherosclerosis, although it may not have obvious symptoms, but for the vascular health of the harm is gradually produced, long-term uncontrolled, it may accelerate the development of atherosclerosis, bring the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Active control of hyperlipidemia, lifestyle modification and rational use of medication are important

With hyperlipidemia, it is important to actively control the blood lipid level in order to reduce the health risk. Some friends always think that if they want to control blood lipids, they have to take medication for a long time, and due to some concerns about the safety of medication, they delay the control of high blood lipids. In fact, for the control of high blood lipids, it is not necessary to take medication to control, specific whether or not to use drugs, or should be considered in conjunction with the actual situation.

For example, some simple triglyceride mildly elevated high blood fat situation, first do not use drugs, through the reasonable adjustment of diet, reduce high fat and high sugar intake, eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, eat more omnivorous cereals and grains, control the consumption of alcohol, control the amount of dietary intake, etc.; coupled with the reasonable enhancement of sports and exercise, long-term adherence to aerobic exercise, and actively improve the lipid metabolism level, are all helpful to reduce the triglyceride is a good way to help, if through the life of the If through the life conditioning, can the elevated blood fat down, naturally, do not have to take drugs to control blood fat.

If, after a period of life-conditioning intervention, lipid levels remain high, it is recommended to continue to do a good job of life-conditioning based on the consideration of taking medication to strengthen lipid control, for the elevation of LDL cholesterol, statins are still the first choice of medication, in addition to statins, PCSK9 inhibitors, ezetimibe and other medications can be combined or consider the use of drugs, the specific choice of medication, dose selection, should also be based on different individual specifics to ensure safety of medication, reasonable and scientific application. Specific drug selection, drug dosage selection, drug safety assurance, should be combined with the specific conditions of different individuals, rational and scientific application.

To control hyperlipidemia, understand the concept of stratified management

Whether we maintain a healthy lifestyle or take medication to control blood lipids, the ultimate goal is to control blood lipid levels and reduce the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health risks brought about by elevated blood lipids, and for the control of blood lipids, and blood pressure, blood glucose, different cardiovascular risk tiers of patients with hyperlipidemia, for the control of blood lipids to meet the target value is also different, so for patients with hyperlipidemia, it is important to know and Therefore, it is important for patients with hyperlipidemia to know and understand the goals of stratified management of hyperlipidemia control in order to ensure better lipid control.

Simply put, LDL cholesterol is the primary target for hyperlipidemia control, and for patients with hyperlipidemia in different cardiovascular risk strata, there are different requirements for the goal of achieving control of this value-

• For those with existing cardiovascular disease problems, LDL cholesterol levels should be controlled to below 1.8mmol/L. For those with comorbid related problems or those who have had a sudden cardiovascular event, LDL cholesterol levels should be further controlled to below 1.4mmol/L to be on the safer side.
• Those without cardiovascular disease, who are at high cardiovascular risk through a comprehensive assessment of age, diabetes, family genetics, hypertension, smoking, obesity, and other risk factors, should have their LDL cholesterol controlled to less than 2.6 mmol/L as the attainment value.
• For those who do not have cardiovascular disease and are not at high risk through cardiovascular risk assessment, the goal of controlling LDL cholesterol can be based on a value of no more than 3.4 mmol/L on the lipid profile.

All in all, for hyperlipidemia, it is not a separate food or drug that will become the natural enemy of hyperlipidemia, only if we understand the harmfulness of hyperlipidemia to health, have a sense of respect for life and health, maintain strict self-discipline, actively practice a healthy lifestyle, and at the same time combine the situation with the enhancement of reasonable use of medication in some cases to control the level of blood lipids, and combined with different cardiovascular risk stratification, set up their own reasonable control goals and regular monitoring to ensure that the blood lipids are smooth and reach the standard, is the real "natural enemy" of hyperlipidemia. Setting up one's own reasonable control goals and regular monitoring to ensure that the blood lipids reach the standard is the correct way of controlling blood lipids, which is the real "natural enemy" of high blood lipids.

High blood fat "nemesis" found, not fungus, drink water when pouring a spoon, not afraid of heart attack to find the door!

The heart is the equivalent of the human body's "engine", the heart transports blood and oxygen for the body, the heart does not rest, unless a person loses vital signs, the heart has been working non-stop.

Once the heart stops beating, it poses a great threat to the body, indicating that the person's life has come to an end. Generally speaking, after the age of 40, the heart will gradually aging, the demand for all body functions gradually reduced, if usually do not pay attention to maintenance, blood vessel problems, but also to the heart, resulting in heart attack change. 45 years old is the life of the high-risk moisture, more likely to increase the chances of disease, so usually must be timely to observe changes in the body, to do a good job of preventive work.

Before a heart attack, the body sends 4 signals

1. Toothache

This kind of toothache is not an ordinary toothache, but a cardiogenic toothache caused by a heart attack. It usually manifests itself as a severe toothache, and in time it is the pain that remains unrelieved after taking painkillers. This indicates that the heart has been damaged, myocardial infarction is quietly developing, this situation must pay attention to check.

2. Neck + sore throat

If you often feel a sore throat, this pain is a tingling sensation that indicates a heart attack has occurred. Because the nerves of the throat and the heart attack possess the same innervation, when there is a lack of blood and oxygen in the heart, it stimulates the nerves of the throat, and this pain spreads, causing a stinging pain in the throat.

3. Pain in the left shoulder and armpit

Heart attack will cause pain in the left shoulder and left arm, sometimes to the right arm. The pain is usually dull and usually confined to the inner forearm, and may radiate to the little and ring fingers, and is accompanied by tightness in the chest and shortness of breath, which should be alerted, so please seek medical treatment without delay.

4. Upper abdominal pain

Abdominal pain can be caused by a number of things, sometimes because of gastrointestinal discomfort and sometimes because of liver problems. If the abdominal pain is accompanied by a rapid pulse, uneven pulse, cold extremities, and stomach pain, it means it is a precursor to a heart attack, so be careful.

Do these 3 things for a healthy heart

1. Drink less carbonated beverages

People who regularly drink carbonated beverages are more likely to suffer from heart attacks than those who do not. Carbonated beverages contain a lot of sugar, which affects the body's metabolism and makes the blood more viscous, so the heart may be hindered in the process of transporting blood. When carbonated drinks are consumed for a long time, the normal function of the heart will be affected, inducing heart attacks. Therefore, you should drink less carbonated drinks and more plain water.

2. Cessation of smoking

Smoking can lead to a variety of cardiovascular diseases and is very harmful to health. Inhaling carbon monoxide while smoking affects the body's hematopoietic function, stimulates the heart and causes atherosclerosis. Nicotine in tobacco causes blood vessels to dilate, increasing the risk of thrombosis. Only successful smoking cessation can reduce the risk of heart attack.

3、Keep your blood pressure stable

Abnormal blood pressure can make it harder for the heart to deliver blood, leading to heart failure. People with chronic high blood pressure are prone to cardiac hypertrophy, which damages the heart muscle and leads to heart disease. To avoid high blood pressure, it is important to have a stable mood, stay positive, eat less salty foods, and pay more attention to exercise.

Hyperlipidemia is a risk factor for atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart, brain, kidney and other vascular diseases, and is extremely harmful to the human body.

There are two natural enemies of hyperlipidemia: a long-term healthy lifestyle and lipid-lowering drugs.

1. Hyperlipidemia is a lifestyle disease.

The first is closely related to a high-fat diet. Hyperlipidemia is commonly characterized by high cholesterol, or high triglycerides and elevated both.

No matter which component of blood lipid is elevated, it is more or less related to excessive intake of fats and oils in the diet, that is, the so-called "disease enters by the mouth".

So how do you regulate your diet when you have hyperlipidemia?

I suggest you read my previous post, "What to watch for in your diet if you have high blood lipids?"

Second, high blood cholesterol is associated with smoking. In particular, smoking can lead to significantly higher triglyceride levels.

Also, high blood cholesterol is associated with lack of exercise.

2. Lipid-lowering drugs.

Some people have very healthy eating habits and other lifestyles, but their blood lipids are still high. The reasons for this may be related to their own heredity and metabolism, and this situation often requires the use of lipid-lowering drugs to control blood lipids in order to maintain them at normal levels.

Commonly used lipid-lowering drugs are:

(1) Statins: have a lowering effect on both cholesterol and triglycerides.

(2) Bettes: mainly lower triglycerides.

(3) Ezetimibe: It is a cholesterol absorption inhibitor, which can effectively reduce the intestinal absorption of cholesterol, thus lowering blood cholesterol levels and hepatic cholesterol stores.

(4) PCSK-9 inhibitors: a newer type of lipid-lowering drug.

(5) Proprietary Chinese medicines: e.g., Blood Lipids Kang, Pu Shen Capsule, etc.

In conclusion, the main problem of hyperlipidemia is to have enough knowledge and attention to the problem of hyperlipidemia, mastering a healthy lifestyle and lipid-lowering drugs, the two magic weapons, hyperlipidemia can be controlled!

Walk every day, eat vegetarian food, and take care of yourself when you are in trouble.

Hyperlipidemia, a metabolic disorder!

The best way is to eat a sensible diet, reduce the intake of fat and carbohydrates, and exercise properly to burn off excess fat!

The natural enemy of hyperlipidemia is exercise!

Life Road Public Health believes that, generally speaking, "natural enemy", should be the kind of disease with relatively few causes, such as hyperlipidemia, which is mainly a variety of factors, multiple genes involved in the disease, it is difficult to speak of natural enemies.

If you have to say "natural enemy", first of all is to pay attention to diet, this and long-term fat, sweet and thick taste of the diet is more related, just like the past why high blood fat people less, and the past diet structure is more related.

Then pay attention to exercise, moderate exercise, movement is born Yang, now people exercise is very little, more exercise, you can reduce high blood fat.

Third, high blood fat is mainly, blood accumulation of excessive fat leads to blood turbidity, Chinese medicine treatment of high blood fat pay attention to evidence-based treatment, you can use to clear phlegm, remove blood stasis, remove dampness and heat of the prescription, although the effect is slow, but the side effects are low. Western medicine is usually treated with some fish oils and Beta drugs.

With the changes in lifestyle and dietary habits of modern people, there are more and more people with high blood cholesterol.

Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease, making many people concerned about their lipid levels.

Many people routinely have their lipid levels tested during medical checkups to see if they have elevated lipids?

There are many reasons for increased blood lipids, and the intake of high-calorie, high-fat foods is a major risk factor for increased blood lipids.

What exactly is the natural enemy of hyperlipidemia?

@Dr. Wei Xiangyang

Good body management, effective physical activity和A sensible diet.It is the "Troika" for controlling elevated blood lipids.

• Many obese people are prone to elevated blood lipids and fatty liver.
• Long-term smokers and drinkers are also prone to disorders of lipid metabolism.

However, there are still some people who pay much attention to diet control, are also sportsmen, and maintain a good figure, but still have high blood lipids, what is the reason for this? This is often due to genetic factors, such people are generally due to genetic defects caused by abnormal lipid metabolism.

We can't dictate our genes, but we can intervene by controlling our diet, staying in shape, exercising sensibly, statin medications if necessary, etc.

Through a this series of means, our cholesterol levels are brought down a little lower and our blood vessels are kept in a cleaner and more active state.
