A report pointed out that modern people's blood is too "oily" - hypercholesterolemia and high triglycerides have become the biggest health threat to middle-aged people. For this reason, some experts pointed out that in fact, adjusting the diet can safely lower blood lipids, among which 9 foods are the most effective. 1, a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast. Eating only a bowl of oatmeal every day for breakfast, continuing for 8 weeks can reduce the concentration of "bad cholesterol" in the blood by 10%, and "good cholesterol" will increase. Oats contain abundant soluble and insoluble fibers, which can prevent the absorption of cholesterol and fat in the gastrointestinal tract. 2, half a bowl of beans for lunch. Beans are all cheap, safe and effective lipid-lowering foods. As long as you eat half a bowl of beans every noon, you can reduce the concentration of "bad cholesterol" by 20% within 8 weeks. Bean foods contain many effective components to reduce cholesterol, among which the main ones are the soluble and insoluble fibers in beans. 3, three cloves of garlic for dinner. Eating three cloves of garlic every day for eight weeks can also reduce the concentration of "bad cholesterol" in the blood by 10%. And whether eaten raw or cooked, the effect is good. 4, eat half an onion every day. Onion is a cost-effective health food. As long as you eat half a raw onion every day for eight weeks, you can increase the concentration of "good cholesterol" by 20%. But raw onions work better, and the longer they are cooked, the worse the effect of lowering cholesterol. 5, use olive oil as cooking oil. Olive oil can provide the best protection for the cardiovascular system. The best choice is cold-pressed olive oil, and olive oil extracted by high-temperature heating has much less nutrition. 6, eat an apple every day. Apples are rich in pectin, which has the effect of lowering cholesterol. 7, steam seafood twice a week. Seafood contains very high levels of Omega-3 fatty acids. If grilled or fried, it is easy to cause the deterioration of fatty acids, so the healthiest way to eat is steaming. Twice a week, more than 150 grams each time is enough. 8, drink a bowl of ginger soup once a week. The components "gingerols" and "shogaols" in ginger are effective ingredients for lowering cholesterol. Just grind dried ginger into powder and drink it with hot water. 9, add red yeast rice when cooking. Red yeast rice is a great invention of China. In addition to being used as a seasoning, it also has the "medicinal value" of lowering cholesterol. Scientists have found that there is a special component in red yeast rice that can inhibit cholesterol synthesis.
