Regular alcohol consumption, smoking, and nervousness can cause some diseases in our bodies. High blood lipids will worsen the condition through these unhealthy habits. High blood lipids can cause high blood pressure, leading to a series of high-risk conditions. High blood lipids can cause primary hyperlipidemia due to improper diet and nutritional imbalance.
People with high blood lipids will show these 4 symptoms. Once one is detected, try to avoid consuming the following 3 foods even if you like them.
1. Leg cramps: High blood lipids will result in insufficient blood supply to our legs, leading to ischemia and the inability to transport oxygen. Prolonged inadequate blood circulation will narrow our blood vessels, impeding quick blood circulation and causing leg cramps. Severe cases may also cause numbness and fatigue in the legs when walking.
2. Corneal white ring: Elevated blood lipids will deprive our cornea of blood supply. Prolonged high blood lipids prevent essential nutrients from reaching the cornea, resulting in a white misty ring.
3. Chalazion: Increased blood lipids accumulate fat, predominantly in the eyelids, which have the most sensitive skin on our bodies. Excess oil in this area due to uncontrolled blood lipids will lead to the formation of chalazion around the eyelids.
4. Dizziness and vertigo: Individuals with high blood lipids often experience minimal initial symptoms like chest tightness. However, in concurrent situations, there may be more apparent signs of dizziness, vertigo, chest pain, fatigue, and limb numbness.
People with high blood lipids need to control their diet to maintain a balanced state of blood lipids. The following 3 foods have extremely unhealthy effects on our bodies. Remember, no matter how delicious, avoid overconsumption of:
1. Lard: Lard consists mainly of saturated fats, which easily increase blood viscosity. Thickened blood not only causes high blood lipids but also damages the cardiovascular system.
2. Baijiu (Chinese white spirit): Baijiu mainly contains sorghum, and the alcohol in it contains a lot of ethanol. Ethanol readily dilutes fat components into the blood, leading to high blood lipids over time. Therefore, individuals with high blood lipids should avoid alcohol consumption to reduce the body’s burden.
3. Egg yolk: Many people enjoy eating salted duck eggs, but egg yolks are rich in cholesterol, directly increasing blood lipid levels in the body.
If you experience any of the above 4 symptoms, promptly undergo a blood lipid test to help restore your lipid levels. Individuals with high blood lipids should strictly control their diet to create a conducive environment for lipid recovery. Even if you like the above 3 foods, limit your consumption or preferably avoid them altogether for a quicker recovery of blood lipids.
