Cholesterol, triglycerides, and new information on how to properly pass Easter
The problem of fat in the blood can be classified into two types:
• Grease or triglycerides, which are related to what an individual eats. Hence, the importance of being a person fasting for 14 hours before a blood test is important, so that the result is accurate.
Cholesterol, which is more related to the genetic factor. From here, a blood test can be performed without prior fasting.
Note that the two depend on the formative nature of the individual, as well as several external factors, especially those related to food.
In which cases should drug treatment be received?
Doctors treat the problem of high triglycerides and cholesterol in the following four cases:
Diabetes.
Bad LDL cholesterol level, 190 and above.
Heart disease (the patient has previously undergone catheterization, or an open heart operation ...)
• The risk of heart disease should be high (10 percent or more), such as if a person is a smoker, who is less mobile, taking into account the age factor.
In these four cases, treatment with drugs must be received, because fats have begun to accumulate in all arteries of the body, and not only in the arteries of the heart. In the arteries of the legs, complications arise when walking, and in the arteries of the kidneys may cause them to stop working, and the fat may lead to strokes ...
How can we protect ourselves from this pathological condition?
The first step begins with the correct diagnosis, as, as a result of the genetic factor, an individual may need to start treatment early. Note that he can start receiving treatments at the age of 4-5 years!
After the diagnosis, it is advised to direct the natural treatments, which are losing weight, stopping smoking, following a healthy diet, exercising of all kinds, and the stronger it is, the more beneficial results it will have on the body.
What are the latest treatments for cholesterol and triglycerides?
Cholesterol medications can be divided into 3 types:
• The first works on the liver. Therefore, the function of the liver and muscle enzymes should be monitored.
• The second works on the intestine, so that it prevents fat from leaking into the blood through the intestine.
• The third medicine is given in the veins, and is prescribed to patients who are not suitable for the previous two drugs. It is a needle given in sweat every 15 days, and its results are excellent, according to new studies.
As for triglycerides, there are two types:
The first and second work on the liver.
Note that drugs for cholesterol and triglycerides are taken in the evening, because the liver is in a state of greater production, while its peak activity is in the early morning.
