Check your health, learn about cholesterol levels

By testing your good and bad cholesterol levels, you'll get a better understanding of just how healthy you are . You'll also find that your doctor will break down that report into several numbers and whether your cholesterol is good or bad. With all the medical advances, that you'll come across you’ll be able to know exactly what part of your good cholesterol is out of control and how your overall progress is doing.


You'll receive the cholesterol test numbers with an explanation, but it can be very confusing. You may want to get a cholesterol testing kit so that you can test yourself in the comfort of your own home. It's difficult to understand the kit, but if you learn how to do the math, then you will be able to understand your results and numbers from your cholesterol test.

Your first number is your bad cholesterol that is often referred to as low density lipids cholesterol. This is commonly referred to as “bad cholesterol” and you can remember this by using the L to stand for Lower—You will want to lower this type of cholesterol. The bad cholesterol will end up making about 65-75% of your total cholesterol, however, you should make sure that your total number is at least lower than 130. Because LDL cholesterol is the type that causes heart attacks, if you have other risk factors such as obesity or a family history of heart disease, you want to keep this number even lower, less than 100 if possible.

Your second number is your good cholesterol or HDL. This is a high density lipid cholesterol. You can always remember that your HDL is healthy by remembering the link to the “h”. You will want this to be of at least 35 or higher for men, but 40 or higher for women. Women have an easier time raising HDL levels than men do, but this can be done through exercise and your diet.

Lets take a look at good Cholesterol HDL
About Aa quarter to one-third of blood cholesterol is carried by high-density lipoprotein (HDL). HDL cholesterol is known as “good” cholesterol, because high levels of HDL seem to protect against heart attack. Low levels of HDL (less than 40 mg/dL) also increase the risk of heart disease. Medical experts think that HDL tends to carry cholesterol away from the arteries and back to the liver, where it's passed from the body. Some experts believe that HDL removes excess cholesterol from arterial plaque, slowing its buildup.


Then it's your cholesterol test number, Which is your total cholesterol level, which will add both your good cholesterol and bad together. If you keep your LDL and HDL levels normal, then you will be able to have a good total cholesterol level. However, you should consult your doctor if you have any questions about your cholesterols and the numbers.

And then finally trigylcerides also play an important role in your testing and Here are some indicators
a normal reading of triglyceride is lower than 150. You will find that anything about the 150 is considered to be high and if you are over 500, then the levels are extremely high and it could dangerous to your health. Most patients that are being treated for high triglyceride also suffer from syndrome X


Doctors also prescribe Statin drugs for cholesterol lowering.
also be aware that diabetes and cholesterol may alter things and professional diagnosis and attention is of urgence.

The low diet for colesterol as discussed over the past series will help you
see definitive results and relieve the pressure of having to take prescription
drugs which can have nauseating effects and ultimately give you a
healthy and good cholesterol ratio.

While on the subject you may want to take a look at statin drugs
and then choose weather you would like to follow the medication route
or alternatively the natural way to cure cholesterol

Now having said all that I have had many requests on what a low diet
is and below I will give an example of what a low diet breakfast lunch
and dinner may consist of.

We also need to remain focused on the fact that we're not trying a
weight loss diet here although implementing a good cholesterol diet
will automatically reduce weight and obesity.

below you'll find a low diet

Breakfast	Lunch	Dinner
grapefruit 1/2 cup cereal 3/4 cup banana 1/2 egg substitute 1/4 cup whole wheat toast 2 slices margarine 2 tsp jam 1 Tbsp 1% milk 1 cup	vegetable beef soup 1 cup lean hamburger 2 oz low-fat cheese 1 oz hamburger bun sliced tomato and lettuce with 2 tsp olive oil, 2 tsp vinegar fresh fruit salad 1/2 cup oatmeal cookie 1 1% milk 1 cup	tomato juice 1/2 cup broiled chicken breast 3 oz herbed brown rice 1/2 cup broccoli spears 2 roll 1 margarine 1 tsp carrot/raisin salad 1/2 cup strawberry yogurt 1/2 cup 1% milk 1 cup

If you already have an arterial plaque build up then eating correctly and having
hdl colesterol to rid the arteries of this build up is an important factor.
Remember once this build up starts to block the coronary arteries in the heart
it may result in a heart attack.

Essentially speaking, by eating the right low diet foods we reduce this risk
and the body functions better as your organs are now getting the correct
blood flow and therefore tissue regeneration can function normally
giving your overall health a better rating.

I will continue to post recipes along with the diet low cholesterol
diet tips and articles.

Can your high cholesterol be a symptom of something else?

Yes very definitely, in fact if we take a close look at cholesterol ratios within a person
the results can stem from 2 factors, the one being diet, the other is genetics.
The natural dangers of high cholesterol can lead to one having a heart attack
or alternatively a stroke, which may leave you in a wheel chair permanently or for
a period of time.

Clearly your diet plays one of the most important roles in your cholesterol levels
and by feeding your body the correct substances, the power to lower or increase your cholesterol ratios rest with you.

In our last 7 posts we focused on the colesterol diet and followed a series of foods
to better your colesterol ratios, bearing in mind that you may also suffer from low cholesterol.

Now not having ruled out the fact that your High Cholesterol a Symptom of Something Else could be a gene that you have inherited in which case you still need to lower your cholesterol ratio and once again this can be achieved in 2 ways.
We mentioned diet earlier and the second option is taking Statin Drugs
a lot of people opt to lower colesterol naturally and taking drugs can sometimes have side effects, so speaking to your doctor is very advisable.

In a nutshell high cholesterol leads to a waxy plaque build up in the arteries which
in turn strains the heart by making it work harder to pump the blood, possibly resulting in a heart attack.

Good cholesterol clears the veins of this arterial build up and acts as a flushing agent
for the arteries, we did mention before that by just eating raw oats you can
reduce your cholesterol ratio in as little as 2 weeks.
Accompanied by exercise healthy eating and lots of water, you should be able to get your cholesterol levels back to normal fairly soon.

Fruit is a major bonus for your system and so are vegetables which i'm sure
you're tired of me telling you this, especially green leafy vegetables
so stock up on all the good stuff.

By testing your cholesterol levels on a regular basis(which can be done at home) and charting your progress and keeping a watchful eye you may increase your longevity
along with those who dine regularly with you.

clearly your high cholesterol can be a symptom of something else.

keep well and have a great festive season, I have almost completed a comprehensive list of foods which will give you the exact fat content within in them, using a standard kitchen measurements like oz's, teaspoons and table spoons, so look forward to it soon.

Diet To lower Triglyceride Known as a type of fat.

The result of too much triglyceride is greater risk of a heart disease.

Your diet determines wether this level will be raised or dropped , your range should be between 10 and 250 mgs./dl, unfortunately in many cases this is not the reslult.

High triglyceride levels normally associate with high total cholesterol levels.
A basic plan to reduce these levels are as follows:

Low fat foods for breakfast eg: whole grain breads with egg whites.
Replace coffee with sugar free tea and replace milk with a fresh fruit juice
or if you enjoy milk try a fat free milk in your lower cholesterol diet..

Lunch may consist of skinless chicken, lean meat may also be included such as
flank also you may have rump or sirloin and this should definitely be accompanied
by a hearty platter of vegetables.

Purified bottled water is also great and may substitute beverages like cokes and sodas as water has many minerals which are helpful to lower cholesterol or balance it out.

Drinking bottled water is much healthier than ordering a can of diet soda because this still has certain properties that are not good for someone who is trying to cut down on cholesterol intake.

Snacks that would really help are normally vegetable slices or strips, keep a lunch box full of these and snack on them during the course of the day.
Fruit clearly plays a vital role in the subject and has a helpful hand in lowering the triglyceride levels.

A good dinner would consist of steamed fish or maybe a light pasta, bearing in mind that not many calories are burnt during the sleeping process.
Practice this as a life style and soon you will have and maintain a healthy diet which will
lower your cholesterol or maintain a low triglyceride reading.

Living healthy can be achieved. It takes determination and discipline happen.
After all you’ll feel better and have a sharper mind and focus on life..

I encourage you..

SELECTING CHOLESTEROL-FREE FOODS

Below we will discuss a list of food to help lower cholesterol

Almost everybody knows the effects of bad cholesterol in the body. It has to do with low-density lipoprotein's molecular transport deposits that thicken in the walls of the arteries hindering the flawless passage of blood affecting the atherogenic status of the arterial walls. While few people do not fully appreciate the importance of cholesterol in the body, this non-soluble waxy substance is essential to aid in building membranes, manufacture of bile, cell walls, nerve sheaths, and produce hormones.

exposing the body to high cholesterol results in hypertension and cardiovascular disorders or lead to atherosclerosis, a disposition of fatty substances, and fibrosis of the inner arteries.

Certain ways to check and reduce high levels of cholesterol are *practicing good eating habits accompanied by regular exercise, compiling a list of foods to help lower your cholesterol is imperative.

Good Eating Habits include this list of foods to help lower cholesterol:

1. Arrange a total cholesterol-free daily diet by creating a weekl menu with vegetable-packed recipes and good supply of fiber-filled fruits. Organically produced food types from such sources as organic gardens is so much the better. Chemicals enhance the increase in cholesterol level. Carbohydrates should be of high complex standards.

Supermarkets have the availability of fresh organic vegetables like lettuce. The high fiber-content of vegetables that you eat will reduce the LDL cholesterol, these foods are very low-cholesterol-content, or non-containing at all. clearly foods that enhance low-density lipoprotein produce a risk and settle in the arteries during the process of the lipoprotein molecules travel to the blood stream.
so as we see a list of foods to lower your cholesterol will determine your result.

2. If egg is included in your meals, eat more egg white, never the egg yolk if you're already an LDC possibile victim. Concentrate on baked foods that are made from whole wheat, and noodles made from cereals. Use unrefined sugar in your light beverages. Fully refined food preparations are processed thru certain chemicals for fine or whitening effects for marketing ends, but are in fact health hazards.

3. Water is the universal solvent and must be included in your list of foods to lower cholesterol. There is no harm in drinking more water, following the daily water requirements standard to aid in the total digestion process to balance body equilibrium in cleaning the body to improve blood circulation.

4. Eat more root crops than baked foods that are prepared with certain additives, coloring, and extenders for commercial purposes.

5. Drink fresh fruit juices, instead of soft drinks with high sugar content and artificial colorings and additives. Practically, anyone who drinks chocolate beverage, or any chemical drinks and caffeine-filled, like strong coffee risks himself or herself to certain cholesterol levels.

Always remember that trans fats and hydrogenated fats or oils used in the baking or in food processing are even more destructive than saturated fats of some oil origin. prepare your food with selected palm oils, especially "olive oil." It may be costly, but it is the safest oil to use in the kitchen for overall safety.

The best habit to consider is a regular check up of your cholesterol count, so as to safeguard against instant increase that might lead to unaware possible consequence of a fatal hypertension, or stroke due to unprecedented cholesterol rise.

Please be sure to follow this blog as we continue to share the list of foods to help lower your cholesterol.

Instead of having steak when having a cookout or picnic, this should be changed with lean meats instead. These foods don’t have that much fat in the center or in the edges and taste just as good as the big slab served with mash potatoes.

The healthiest thing to have either for lunch and dinner is sea food... This can be fish or shellfish that is known to carry Omega 3, which is very effective in lowering the levels of cholesterol in people.

In each meal, one must not forget to add some fruits in the plate. A salad works best or having a few carrots or potatoes as a side dish. There must always be a balance wether it's meat or fish.

High Cholesterol and Self Testing

Did you know that high cholesterol is a serious problem that is common world wide. simply because don’t know how to eat properly . You’ll find that high cholesterol is part of a serious epidemic, but it’s also killing people purely because it causes heart attacks or strokes. Once you turn 18 years of age, you should get your cholesterol checked out reguarly. I HAVE INCLUDED A VIDEO BELOW ON A SIMPLE HOME TESTING CHOLESTEROL KIT

You’ll want to make sure that it's checked every five years or so, however, if you are at serious risk for a heart attack or stroke (because they are genetically linked), you may want to go every year. also check your cholesterol levels throughout your entire adult life, because of the risks of a heart attack, however, if you deal with it quickly, you’ll be able to reduce your risks. You may want to get a home kit to test your levels in the privacy of your own home.By going to the local pharmacies to locate a test kit . If you do have high levels, you may want to consult your doctor to help you moderate your healthy cholesterol levels.

Research all the options you have to test your own cholesterol levels. First, you need to learn a little about cholesterol levels and what they tell you about your health. There are three or more different cholesterol readings that your doctor takes to review your health. When it comes to the good cholesterol or HDL you will want this level to be above 40 or higher. On the other hand, LDL cholesterol, commonly called “bad cholesterol” should be kept lower, at 130 for those in good health with no family history of heart attacks or stroke and at 100 or lower if your family does have a history of heart attacks or stroke. When it comes to your cholesterol report, you may want to ask about all the other numbers that may be included, but your cholesterol numbers are the most important ones to monitor.

You should also know that most home testing kits will only give you a total cholesterol reading. This number should be under 200 and includes not only HDL and LDL numbers, but other considerations as well. You may end up suffering from high LDL and low HDL, but you may have a completely comfortable cholesterol level. This can be very misleading. Some self-testing kits are now adding other reading options to make this process easier, but if you aren’t knowledgeable about the many different kinds of cholesterol, this can be confusing.

Make sure that you follow all of the directions to the self-testing kit very carefully. If you do it correctly, remember There are companies that have better products.

Prick your finger to test the cholesterol, but then again, if blood makes your squeamish, you can always find an option that will help you. These kits are not something that you should replace a regular doctor’s visit.Make an appointment with your doctor if you're uncertain about your cholesterol levels or if you think that it might be at an unhealthy level.
