What's the matter with oil in the blood

The blood vessel network in the human body is very dense. Blood is always flowing in the blood vessels, and the flow rate will increase with the beating of the heart. As people pay more attention to their health, many people often go to the hospital for check-ups. However, some patients have oil in their blood, or milky white foreign matter. So what is the matter with oil in the blood? Let us learn about it together.

First, what is the matter with oil in the blood? Experts explain that when the human body consumes too much high-fat, high-protein food, a large amount of fat will flow into the blood, causing the bright red blood to slowly turn into milky white like milk. At first glance, it seems as if the blood vessels are full of oil, which makes people feel nauseous. This is the origin of the saying "oil hidden in the blood".

Second, the proportion of dyslipidemia is higher among urban white-collar workers, civil servants, and people in special monopolistic industries. Taking a certain monopolistic special industry as an example, the total number of people examined was 867, and among them, 413 people had abnormal blood lipids, accounting for 47.636% of the total number of people. The editor has summarized the following groups of people who are most likely to suffer from hyperlipidemia. Social expert: He has hardly ever had a meal at home, and eats out with business partners or friends at restaurants every day, eating delicious food and having irregular meal times. If this continues for many years, the fat and protein content in these people's bodies will rise sharply like an elevator. Obese people: People with abdominal obesity are particularly prone to "fat hidden in the blood". The thickest part of their body is the abdomen, and their waist circumference is often larger than their hip circumference. This is a common clinical manifestation of obesity in adults. Studies have found that people with abdominal obesity are about 2-3 times more likely to develop various complications such as hyperlipidemia than those with overall symmetrical obesity, and the thicker the waist circumference, the higher the risk. Chronic patients: Hyperlipidemia may be secondary to other diseases. Patients with hypertension, coronary heart disease, etc. are potential risk factors. If diseases such as hypothyroidism, diabetes, kidney disease, and obstructive jaundice are not well controlled, they can also cause hyperlipidemia. High-lipid family: Like high blood pressure, high blood lipids also have genetic factors. If there is someone in your family suffering from hyperlipidemia, you may have congenital lipid and lipoprotein metabolism defects in your body. If you are affected by acquired environmental or dietary factors, you are prone to hyperlipidemia.

What's the matter with oil in the blood? Without regular physical examinations, abnormal blood lipids are difficult to detect. The population as a whole shows the characteristics of "three lows", namely low awareness rate, low treatment rate and low compliance rate. The hidden nature of dyslipidemia makes it more difficult to detect than hypertension, resulting in delayed treatment and low treatment success rate. Moreover, drug treatment cannot cure high blood lipids. In many cases, it can only be adjusted to normal values ​​slowly through improvements in diet and exercise.
