Diseases: Dyslipidemia
Hyperlipidemia is a condition characterized by a disturbance in lipid metabolism, leading to elevated levels of blood lipids (such as cholesterol, cholesterol esters, and triglycerides) that exceed the normal range; it is also known as hyperlipoproteinemia. Maintain a balanced diet and control portion sizes to prevent obesity. Opt for a light, plant-based diet, ensuring a balance of refined and whole grains. Grains, nuts, legumes, and soy products are all suitable for consumption. Choose refined vegetable oils such as soybean oil, rapeseed oil, and corn oil; avoid animal fats. Consumption of high-cholesterol and high-fat foods—such as fatty meats and animal offal—should be limited. Avoid overeating; strictly refrain from smoking and excessive alcohol consumption; and limit intake of sugar and sugary foods. Foods suitable for long-term consumption by patients with hyperlipidemia to help lower cholesterol include tea, milk, soybeans, mung beans, peanuts, ginger, mushrooms, black fungus, wheat bran, chili peppers, garlic, onions, celery, tomatoes, Chinese cabbage, shepherd’s purse, saltwater fish, kelp, spinach, pomelos, oranges, sunflower seeds, and natural pollen. Medicinal dishes and beverages made from ingredients that serve both as food and medicine—such as hawthorn, cassia seeds, gynostemma, ginkgo leaves, lotus leaves, notoginseng, chrysanthemum, polygonum multiflorum, ginseng, solomon’s seal, and cordyceps—can also be consumed on a long-term basis.
