First of all, let's analyze the question, we see the question has high cholesterol, this five words, here the cholesterol is high refers to the cholesterol is certainly compared with the normal value, and cholesterol is the normal value of how to come?
The normal value of cholesterol is statistically determined by collecting more than 100,000 cholesterol values from healthy humans, removing the highest 2.5% and lowest 2.5%, and taking 95% of these values as the normal range. This is the source of basically all the normal values for lab tests in Western medicine.
From this we can see that the best way to make cholesterol normal is to live our lives as normal.
Some people think this is a nonsense, in fact, not, here refers to the normal life, is:
Three meals sometimes, work and rest regularly, exercise regularly, relaxed.
These 16 words are easy to know and hard to do. For example, the subject's life must be inconsistent with these 16 words.
Back to the topic, let's take a look at the composition of cholesterol, cholesterol has four main components: very high density lipoprotein, high density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, very low density lipoprotein. These four proteins, very high-density as well as high-density lipoproteins, are good lipoproteins that contribute to fat transport and metabolism, while low-density lipoproteins as well as very-low-density lipoproteins are bad lipoproteins that contribute to the formation of atherosclerotic plaques in blood vessels.
High cholesterol is nothing but a change in the levels of these four components of lipoproteins.
If there is an elevation of HDL and VHDL, resulting in an overall high cholesterol level, then congratulations, your genes dictate that your arteries are protected by this good group of lipoproteins, resulting in a lower risk of coronary heart disease.
If you have elevated LDL and VLDL, which leads to high cholesterol levels overall, then the best thing to do is to take a statin to lower your LDL and VLDL levels. This is the most effective and fastest way to lower LDL and VLDL that you can put in your stomach.
About what foods to eat, to be able to lower cholesterol levels, for many people, it is a very difficult thing to do, because nowadays, everyone is living well, the food supply is very rich, and people will choose delicious things to eat, and those delicious things, often contain more fats, sugar, starch.
But this is not completely insurmountable, our daily diet, the daily intake of the largest amount of food or staple food, if I were to give advice on what to eat to reduce cholesterol, I would suggest that we make adjustments to their own staple food recipes, try to minimize the intake of refined rice and white flour, to 50% of the miscellaneous grains, go to the replacement of refined rice and white flour, and at the same time, to reduce the use of cooking oil, try to use Also, reduce the use of oil in cooking and try to use olive oil as cooking oil. Reduce the intake of sugar, reduce the intake of nuts. This will also, through dietary modifications, improve some of the LDL and VLDL levels.
There are a lot of people who would suggest using traditional Chinese medicine to lower lipids, such as mulberry leaves, cassia seeds, lotus seeds, and so on and so forth, and so on, and so forth, and so on, and so forth, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on.
