Can patients with high triglycerides drink beer?

High triglycerides themselves are not a serious disease, but the incidence of the disease is relatively high because people's eating habits are now related to this disease. They eat a lot of meat and fish, exercise less, take the car when going out, and are busy with work. The disease has many complications that can lead to illness. So, can patients with high triglycerides drink beer? Now let me give you a detailed introduction.

Depending on the degree, the symptoms of hyperlipidemia vary. The main symptoms of hyperlipidemia can be divided into the following aspects:

First of all: Mild hyperlipidemia usually does not cause any discomfort, but the absence of symptoms does not mean that blood lipids are not high. Regularly checking blood lipids is crucial.

Second: The general symptoms of hyperlipidemia are: dizziness, fatigue, insomnia, forgetfulness, limb numbness, chest tightness, palpitations, etc., which may be confused with the clinical symptoms of other diseases. Some patients have high blood lipids but no symptoms, and hyperlipidemia is often discovered during physical examinations and blood tests. In addition, hyperlipidemia is often accompanied by overweight and obesity.

Third, when hyperlipidemia is severe, symptoms such as dizziness, headache, chest tightness, shortness of breath, palpitations, chest pain, fatigue, crooked mouth, inability to speak, and limb numbness will appear, which will eventually lead to serious diseases such as coronary heart disease and cerebral stroke, and corresponding manifestations will appear.

Fourth, long-term high blood lipids and atherosclerosis caused by lipid deposition in the vascular endothelium can cause coronary heart disease and peripheral arterial disease, etc., manifested as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, stroke and intermittent claudication (pain after limb movement).

Fifth, a small number of people with hyperlipidemia may also experience corneal arcus and lipidemia fundus changes. Corneal arcus is also known as senile ring. If it occurs in people under 40 years old, it is often accompanied by hyperlipidemia, especially familial hypercholesterolemia, but the specificity is not strong. The fundus changes in hyperlipidemia are due to the deposition of large triglyceride-rich lipoprotein particles on the retinal arterioles, causing light refraction. It is often a characteristic manifestation of severe hypertriglyceridemia accompanied by chylomicronemia.

Blood lipids mainly refer to cholesterol and triglycerides in serum. Whether the cholesterol level is increased, the triglyceride level is increased, or both are increased, it is collectively referred to as hyperlipidemia. Generally speaking, patients with hyperuricemia are not suitable for drinking beer because the purine produced by metabolism will aggravate the condition.

If you are not too old and your blood lipids are slightly high, it should be fine to drink a moderate amount. High blood lipids, age, obesity, smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure, etc. are all high-risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

Patients should pay attention to a light diet, eat less salt, less oil and less meat, but they can eat fish. Do not eat food that is difficult to digest or spicy food. Pay attention to nutritional supplements, eat more fruits and vegetables, control your weight, do not eat animal liver, try not to eat fried food, and exercise appropriately.
