The aging trend of high cholesterol is not unrelated to stress and tension, and these mental factors are also the reasons for the increase of cholesterol level. Judging from the occurrence of atherosclerosis, it will happen to young people in their twenties, but it may take at least 20 years to really develop into atherosclerosis blocking heart vessels and even myocardial infarction. Although some "thin people" are not fat, their cholesterol is high for various reasons. For example, mental stress, love to eat high protein, high fat sweets and so on. , is the reason. Long-term mental stress can lead to an increase in cholesterol.
Many people mistakenly think that high cholesterol is due to too much body fat, which is the patent of fat people. But the latest research shows that thin people are also prone to high cholesterol. The reason is that thin people feel thin and don't like sports. Although they don't have much fat, their cholesterol will not change. Thin people who have no exercise habits have less fat than fat people, but the cholesterol content in their blood has not changed, and the risk of heart disease and other diseases is no different from that of fat people. The reason is that heart disease is closely related to cholesterol content, especially when the low-density cholesterol lipoprotein content is high, it is easy to promote arteriosclerosis.
People are thin and have high cholesterol, which is related to cholesterol metabolism. Besides eating too much, high cholesterol is also related to the synthesis and consumption of cholesterol in the body. For very thin people, if they eat too much fatty food, their cholesterol level may rise. In addition, for patients who consume too much lipid components, their cholesterol levels increase, but at the same time accompanied by wasting diseases, such as tuberculosis, tumors and other diseases, people often lose weight, but their plasma cholesterol increases. The increase of cholesterol is related to the metabolism of enzymes in the body and also to family inheritance. Some patients with familial hypercholesterolemia may have elevated blood lipids, but they do not gain weight.
