Dr. Zhang Zhiying's free clinic in Tibet
There is an old folk saying-"strike a snake and fight seven inches". In fact, the same is true for controlling cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. At this stage of the development of human medicine, human medicine has seen that cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are already the "first killer" that threatens the survival of mankind. To control the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, low-density lipoprotein must be better controlled. So, is the low-density lipoprotein level within the normal range of the test sheet even if it is up to the standard? People with a little bit of medical knowledge also know that this is definitely not the case. The reality is that LDL must be controlled lower to be better. So, why do humans need to control low-density lipoprotein a little lower? Today, Doctor Zhang explained this to you from four perspectives:
1. Other mammals similar to humans
Related research shows that, except for modern humans, almost all of them are related to Our similar mammals have low-density lipoprotein levels far lower than human blood lipid levels, especially in wild mammals. It is a fact that the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in these animals is significantly lower than that of humans. Once these animals have been artificially fed, their blood lipid levels, especially low-density lipoprotein levels, will rise significantly, and sometimes even close to human blood lipid levels. At this time, the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in these animals has also increased. From this perspective, low-density lipoprotein is indeed a key factor for humans to control the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
2. Primitive humans
Speaking of the blood lipid levels of primitive humans, I believe everyone will question how can we obtain the blood lipid data of primitive humans who lived millions of years ago? It should be said that at this stage, even through the most advanced modern methods, it is difficult to understand the blood lipid data of those primitive people millions of years ago. However, we should admit that in some undeveloped areas, there are indeed some human beings in the living conditions of primitive people.For example, primitive humans in the Amazon rainforest. After studying the blood lipid levels of these humans, people were surprised to find that the blood lipid levels of these people were around 1.0-1.4mmol/l. The incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in these people's disease spectrum is relatively low, and it is not a major disease. This is different from the cardio-cerebrovascular disease, which is the first cause of death for modern people, but it also gives us a lot of enlightenment. Should modern people also lower blood lipids? The answer should be affirmative. At least patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and high-risk groups should control low-density lipoprotein to a lower level. You cannot simply look at the normal range values on the laboratory test sheet.
Primitive humans have very low blood lipid levels
3. Infants
In fact, the question of how much blood lipids humans need in the body is not difficult. Babies need to grow quickly after birth. Humans in this period What is the blood lipid level? Relevant data shows that the blood lipid level of babies is around 0.7-1.0mmol/l when they are born, which means that even for babies that need rapid growth, a blood lipid level of 1.0mmol/l in the body is enough. However, as children grow up and gradually come into contact with the modern civilized world and lifestyle of mankind, their blood lipid levels will gradually rise, or even get higher and higher, which will eventually lead to the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Looking at this issue from this perspective, in fact, each of us should also pay attention to making our low-density lipoprotein a little lower.
Infant's blood lipid level is very low
4. People at the grassroots level in Tibetan areas of Tibet
Fans and friends who are familiar with Dr. Zhang know that Dr. Zhang went to a free clinic in Shigatse, Tibet a few days ago. This trip to the free clinic gave me a real sense of the physical condition of people in Tibetan areas. During the free clinic, I checked blood lipids for many people, and I was surprised to find that many people have very low blood lipid levels, especially low-density lipoprotein levels, which are between 1.2-2.0mmol. This reminds me of the results of human lipid research on the Amazon primitive tribe.My first reaction at the time was that the research on blood lipids in the Amazon primitive tribe was not a fake, but a response to the real situation. The blood lipid level of Tibetans is also roughly like this, but now Tibetans are more exposed to modern civilization, and low-density lipoprotein is slightly higher than that of primitive tribes in the Amazon area. However, these Tibetans have low blood lipid levels. Although there are many hypertensive patients here, the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases is relatively low across the country, which may also be due to the relatively low blood lipids. It also shows from another angle that if humans want to control cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, they must manage the low-density lipoprotein indicator.
The above is a little bit of my recent experience, benefiting from the trip to Tibet. However, through the interpretation of these four aspects, I still want to remind friends in front of the mobile phone that if you want to reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, you must control the indicator of low-density lipoprotein. In addition to improving our unhealthy lifestyle, some High-risk groups often need to pay special attention to the use of related lipid-lowering drugs for professional treatment under the guidance of professional doctors. It is very important for low-density lipoprotein to reach the standard.
At the time of family reunion during the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2021, friends who read this article must forward this article to the family member who has high blood pressure, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, hyperuricemia, Coronary heart disease, relatives of cerebrovascular disease, because only they understand these truths can they pay more attention to the control of low-density lipoproteins and be healthier. Are you right?
