Dyslipidemia ~ including hypercholesterolemia, then there are a large number of patients in clinic whose triglycerides, high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein are normal, but their cholesterol values are very high, so patients can be diagnosed as hypercholesterolemia. So, how to treat hypercholesterolemia? This is a concern of most patients. Let me talk about the specific plan for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.

First, 80% of patients with hypercholesterolemia are caused by dietary factors. Therefore, dietotherapy is the first choice for treatment, avoiding eating fat meat, sweet and thick meat, greasy food, fried food and such foods with high oil content. The principle of diet should be light diet, eat more vegetables and coarse grains, drink more water, eat more fresh fruits and so on!

Secondly, physical exercise. For obese patients with hypercholesterolemia, we should increase physical exercise, lose weight and do more aerobic exercise, such as jogging, walking slowly, climbing mountains, cycling, skipping rope, swimming and hula hoop. These are all aerobic exercises, which can lose weight and reduce the cholesterol content in the blood!

Thirdly, neither of the above two methods can reduce the cholesterol content in blood, so the last method is to choose drugs for treatment. For patients with high cholesterol, lipid-lowering drugs suitable for statins are commonly used in clinic, such as atorvastatin calcium tablets, simvastatin, pravastatin, fluvastatin and rivastatin. This kind of lipid-lowering drugs mainly reduce the cholesterol content in the body and need to be taken for a long time. The drugs will cause liver damage. At the same time, monitor liver function!

To sum up, the treatment of hypercholesterolemia is above. If you can change your lifestyle, I believe you will use less drugs or even no drugs, which will lower your cholesterol. Therefore, it is the most basic treatment principle to keep your mouth shut and open your legs.
