What should patients with hyperlipidemia do

Hyperlipidemia is a disease that everyone knows about now. In many cases, it is caused by unhealthy lifestyle habits and improper diet. A small number of them are inherited from parents, which can cause great harm to the human body. But everyone should know that this disease can be prevented and treated, that is, preventive treatment can reduce the probability of occurrence and early onset of illness. So let’s find out what patients with hyperlipidemia should do?

1. Reasonable dietary structure. The dietary principle for hyperlipidemia is "four lows and one high", namely low calorie, low fat, low cholesterol, low sugar and high fiber diet.

1. Control calorie intake. The calorie intake of each person per day should be controlled within 294 calories/kg body weight. The intake of animal fat and cholesterol should also be strictly controlled. It should not exceed 300 mg per person per day. Try not to eat or eat less animal offal. Do not eat more than one egg per day. It is recommended to eat vegetable oils containing peanut oil. It is advisable to choose more milk, fish, beans, lean meat, seafood, vegetables, fruits, etc.

2. The salt intake should be less than 8 grams per person per day.

2. Scientific Lifestyle

To prevent and treat hyperlipidemia, you should also pay attention to a regular lifestyle, participate in appropriate sports (sports food) and cultural activities, not smoke, not drink alcohol, avoid mental stress, and maintain a good attitude.

3. Regular physical examination

People over 45 years old who are obese, have a family history of hyperlipidemia, frequently attend social events, or are under high mental stress are all at high risk, and it is recommended that they have their blood lipids checked once a year.

IV. Medication Adjustment

The most fundamental purpose of lipid-lowering therapy is to prevent and delay the occurrence of diseases such as coronary heart disease and cerebral stroke. When blood lipids cannot be reduced to ideal levels after reasonably adjusting the dietary structure, changing bad living habits and increasing physical exercise, drug treatment must be used. Long-term medication is required to treat hyperlipidemia.

Many natural medicines and foods have good lipid-lowering effects. These medicines include: hawthorn, salvia miltiorrhiza, oriental water plantain, Polygonum multiflorum, cassia seed, polygonatum, kudzu root, pollen cattail, lotus leaf, ginkgo leaf, etc. These medicines can be boiled in water alone and drunk as tea, which has a good lipid-lowering effect.
