DELIKADO BA ANG MATAAS NA LDL SA CHOLESTEROL TEST?

✅Ang LDL (low density lipoprotein) ay isa sa mga nakikita sa lipid profile o cholesterol test. Mataas ito kung ito ay 160 ,g/dL o higit pa sa dugo.

🚨Nakukuha ang LDL sa pagkain ng SOBRA-SOBRANG PAGKAIN ng mga pagkaing mataas sa SATURATED at TRANS FAT gaya ng:
- mga fastfood
- butter at heavy cream
- processed meats
- fatty meats
- coconut at palm oil
- lard
- pastries, cakes at cookies

🚨Ang sobra-sobrang LDL na napoproduce ay nagdedeposit sa mga ugat at nagiging PLAQUES

🚨Ang mga PLAQUE ay maaaring magdulot ng pagbabara ng daloy ng dugo at mauwi sa HEART ATTACK at STROKE

🚨Ang pinakamalakas na EBIDENSYA na nagtuturo sa MATAAS NA LDL na dahilan ng pagkakaroon ng heart disease ay makikita sa study na ito: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5837225/
- Sa study na may 300,000 na pasyente, nakita sa mga taong may GENETIC DEFECT kung saan mataas ang kanilang LDL particles mula pagkapanganak na nagkaroon sila ng sakit sa puso pag tumanda sila
- Sa study na may 892,337 na taong walang sakit sa puso sa simula, nakita na ang may mga mataas na LDL ay tumaas din ang risk na magkaroon at mamatay from heart attacks.

🚨Ang mataas na LDL ay hindi lamang risk factor sa pagkakaroon ng sakit sa puso, isa itong NANGUNGUNANG DAHILAN ng pagkakaroon ng sakit sa puso

🚨Ang MATAAS NA LDL ay independent risk factor sa sakit sa puso. Ibig sabihin, kahit kumakain ka ng kanin o hindi, kahit may diabetes ka o wala ay mataas ang chance magkaroon ng heart disease basta mataas ang LDL.

🎄 Holiday Health Reminder: Keep Food Safe!

The holidays are a time for sharing meals, but improper food handling can increase the risk of acute gastroenteritis (diarrhea, vomiting, stomach pain).

Protect yourself and your family by remembering to:

Wash hands before food preparation and eating

Keep raw and cooked foods separate

Cook food thoroughly, especially meat and seafood

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours

Reheat food properly and avoid food left at room temperature too long

Enjoy the festivities, but when in doubt—throw it out. Your stomach will thank you!

Stay safe, stay healthy, and happy holidays 🎉

🎄✨ Holiday Health Reminder from Your Doctor ✨🎄
The holidays are a time for celebration, rest, and togetherness — and they don’t have to come at the expense of your health. 💙
Even during the festive season, small lifestyle choices still matter:
✔ Enjoy meals mindfully and in moderation
✔ Stay active — walks, stretching, or dancing all count
✔ Stay hydrated and get enough rest
✔ Focus on balance, not restriction
Remember, health is built on daily habits, not just what we do after the holidays. You don’t need to be perfect — just consistent.
Wishing you a joyful, healthy holiday season!
