How to prevent high cholesterol?

The amount of cholesterol in the human body must be controlled. Because in the daily diet, many people like to eat high-fat and high-calorie foods, it is easy to cause high cholesterol, which can easily lead to heart disease. So what aspects of life must we pay attention to in terms of cholesterol? What methods can effectively prevent high cholesterol? The editor has some methods.

Cholesterol is one of the main culprits of cardiovascular disease. As the cholesterol level in the blood increases, the risk of cardiovascular disease also increases greatly. Therefore, it is urgent to control cholesterol levels, especially the level of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol LDL-C). The classic lipid-lowering treatment is "statin" drugs, which act on the liver and inhibit the synthesis of cholesterol, and clinical trials have proven their effectiveness. But for some patients, this alone is not enough to lower cholesterol to the level required by doctors, that is, the "target level." Therefore, while inhibiting cholesterol synthesis, it is also necessary to control the intestinal absorption of cholesterol.

At the same time, for patients who still do not meet the target after statin monotherapy, Professor Shi Jun recommends that statins can be used in combination with ezetimibe. The two have complementary mechanisms and can comprehensively inhibit the formation and absorption of cholesterol, forming a comprehensive vascular "river" management solution.

Finally, lifestyle intervention is also a necessary auxiliary means to treat hypercholesterolemia. Patients should abstain from "red meat", eat less greasy food, and exercise more. Only by implementing the "two-pronged" approach of lifestyle intervention and drug treatment can we achieve good control of long-term cholesterol levels.

Strictly control the intake of foods high in cholesterol, such as pig kidneys, pig livers, chicken livers, dried shrimps, fresh crab roe, quail eggs, lamb heads, pine duck eggs, salted duck eggs, duck egg yolks, egg yolks, pig brains, etc.

Now that we have a good solution to the cholesterol level, I believe everyone will be able to control it in their diet in the future. Changes in cholesterol are not to be taken lightly, so they must be taken seriously. Cholesterol affects multiple organs, including the heart. Generally, people with cholesterol problems are obese, so they need to pay attention to exercise, but not excessive exercise. They should focus on conditioning their bodies on a daily basis.
