High cholesterol levels are also a health problem faced by many people nowadays. Many people have the misconception that thin people do not have cholesterol, but this condition affects people of all body types equally. If this is not properly controlled, blood flow to the heart can be blocked. This leads to heart attack and even death.
There is a misconception in today’s society that cholesterol is found in overweight people, but cholesterol is also found in thin people. Bad lifestyle is often the cause of high cholesterol. A healthy diet is the best way to control it. Special attention should be paid to food as some foods raise cholesterol and some lower cholesterol.
Only 20% of the food comes in as fat and the rest is produced by the liver itself. When carbohydrates are in excess in the body, they are not converted into energy and are stored in the body as fat. Therefore, foods high in carbohydrates can cause cholesterol to rise.
If you want to reduce cholesterol, you should eat foods that are not easily digested. Minimize the use of oil and use healthy oil. Using olive oil for cooking is very beneficial as it increases good cholesterol and lowers bad cholesterol. Avoid fried foods as much as possible. Watch the video for more information.
