Cholesterol value and general health

 People with high -blood cholesterol are very exposed to the beginning of heart disease. High cholesterol levels are common in people over 50, people with weight problems, people with gastrointestinal disorders and people with diabetes. High levels of blood cholesterol can be one of the results of substance overdose (due to liver dysfunction) or that the body cannot eliminate it. However, apart from the physiological factors that allow the accumulation of cholesterol in living beings, there are many other external factors that contribute to the accumulation of cholesterol: inappropriate diet, sitting lifestyle, smoking, alcohol abuse. The body can generate the amount of cholesterol required to maintain normal activity, but high cholesterol foods can significantly increase blood cholesterol levels. Foods of animal origin are rich in cholesterol and saturated fats, and is very harmful to living beings when consumed in large quantities. To maintain the normal cholesterol level, it is necessary to replace meat and dairy products with vegetables, cereals and fruits. Simple carbohydrates (sweets ) should also be avoided because cholesterol accumulates in the body. The appropriate exercise is very important to reduce the level of blood cholesterol. Regular exercise improves blood circulation and helps eliminate excessive cholesterol. Exercise often maintains normal cholesterol levels and reduces excess weight. Smoking is considered to be an important factor in the risk of heart disease. Smoking promotes cholesterol to accumulate in the arteries, causing obstruction, which disturbs normal blood flow. If you have a high -blood cholesterol value and it is a smoker, we recommend that you stop smoking. Alcohol should also be avoided because it contributes to the accumulation of cholesterol in blood flow. Within the normal range, cholesterol is very important for living beings. Since the liver is required in a specific physiological process, it generates a small amount of cholesterol (wax -shaped viscosity) in a small amount. Without cholesterol, the body cannot produce hormones (testosterone and estrogen ), vitamin d (strengthening of bone tissue ) and bile (very important substances used in digestive fat). In a small amount, cholesterol is useful for living beings, which can cause many damage. Since cholesterol does not melt in the blood, it accumulates in the arteries and deposits to delay normal blood circulation. The high level of cholesterol greatly increases the risk of cardiovascular disease and heart failure. It is very important to know that there are several types of cholesterol. When you check the cholesterol level, it usually says the total cholesterol level. The total cholesterol level consists of high density lipoprotein (HDL ), low density lipoprotein (LDL ) and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL ). Low density lipoprones are also known as bad cholesterol, and this substance can be harmful to the human body if it accumulates excessively. The bad cholesterol (LDL ) accumulates in the arteries and within normal blood circulation. The good cholesterol (HDL ) is benign for living organisms because it collects low density lipoprones of the blood flow and returns to the liver. Maintaining a healthy diet and exercising regularly, can increase the good level of cholesterol while reducing bad cholesterol levels. By improving your lifestyle, you can reduce the total cholesterol level.
