Is there a relationship between blood lipids and coronary heart disease?

  Blood lipids are an important substance in the human body and have many very important functions, but they cannot exceed a certain range. If there are too many lipids, they are easily deposited on the walls of blood vessels and gradually form small plaques (“atherosclerosis”), which increase and enlarge, gradually blocking the blood vessels, slowing down the blood flow and, in severe cases, interrupting it. If this happens to the heart – it causes coronary heart disease; if it happens to the brain – it can cause a stroke. High blood lipid is the most important independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Therefore, active and effective regulation of blood lipids has become the most important means to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and reduce recurrence and mortality rates at present.  Dyslipidemia is defined as high cholesterol (TC) and/or triglycerides (TG) or low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in the blood. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is too high.  Who is at risk for dyslipidemia?   People with a family history of hyperlipidemia; obese people; middle-aged and elderly people; people with a long-term high-sugar diet; postmenopausal women; long-term smokers and alcoholics; people who are accustomed to sitting still; people with irregular life, emotional agitation and mental tension; people with liver and kidney diseases, diabetes, hypertension and other diseases.  Regulate blood lipids three major treasures: 1, adjust the principles of dietary structure: limit the intake of fat-rich, cholesterol-rich food; choose low-fat food (vegetable oil, sour milk); increase vitamins, fiber (fruits, sparse vegetables, bread and cereals) 2, with the lowering of blood lipids food: garlic (eat sugar and vinegar garlic 1 ~ 2 in the morning on an empty stomach), ginger, eggplant, hawthorn, persimmon, black fungus, milk, etc.  3.Improve lifestyle: lose weight, quit smoking, control alcohol, aerobic exercise, pay attention to mental health and maintain an optimistic and open-minded attitude towards life.  Medication: At present, there are many drugs for adjusting blood lipids, mainly divided into the following three categories: 1, statins: mainly to lower cholesterol, such as Shu Zhe Zhi, Pragul, etc.; 2, Beetle: mainly to lower triglycerides, such as Lipin, etc.; 3, natural substances, such as blood lipid Kang is effective in lowering cholesterol and triglycerides, and can raise high-density lipoprotein, with the efficacy of comprehensive regulation of blood lipids, and little side effects. Drug treatment must be carried out under the guidance of doctors and regular review of liver function and blood lipids.
