Cholesterol Management


Cholesterol is present in every cell of the body and has important natural functions when it comes to digesting foods, producing hormones, and generating vitamin D. The body produces it naturally, but some foods also contain cholesterol. It is waxy and fat-like in appearance.
Conditions that can lead to high cholesterol levels, include:
  • diabetes
  • liver or kidney disease
  • poly-cystic ovary syndrome
  • pregnancy and other conditions that increase levels of female hormones
  • under-active thyroid gland
  • drugs that increase LDL cholesterol(bad cholesterol) and decrease HDL(good cholesterol), such as progestin, anabolic steroids, and corticosteroids
Since 2013, guidelines on reducing or preventing high cholesterol have focused on addressing lifestyle risks, even at a young age.
Since 2018, new guidelines published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology also urged doctors also to discuss with individuals the following factors that may increase a person’s risk:
  • family history and ethnicity
  • certain health conditions that increase the risk of high cholesterol, such as Chronic kidney disease or chronic inflammatory conditions.
Taking these factors into consideration will lead to a more personalized approach to the treatment and prevention of high cholesterol levels.
     Prevention of the bad cholesterol is to start with omega-3, soluble fiber with           multivitamin. 
     Gradual changes in lifestyle like Eat more veg-B, Fruits twice in a day.
     Avoid bakery foods like rusk, biscuits (not even marie light), cakes,
     sweet buns,excessive refined sugar, syrups, foods ( rich in preservatives).
     Do yoga for 4 days in a week.Drink only 8 to 10 glasses of water including
     all green tea or detox water.
