Why is my blood fat not reduced even though I am on a strict diet?
(Baonghean.vn) - For people with fatty blood, adjusting their diet is very necessary. However, if the patient abstains and has an incorrect lifestyle, the benefits will not outweigh the harm.
Common misconceptions
High blood fat is a condition in which one or more indicators are disturbed such as increased total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol (bad fat) or decreased HDL-cholesterol (good fat).

High blood fat is closely related to eating habits high in fat, animal organs, red meat, fast food, fried food, etc. Therefore, many people, after discovering their high blood fat index, actively change their diet, reduce fat intake, and even completely eliminate fat from their daily diet. However, after a while, they are disappointed because their blood fat index is still high or has not decreased significantly.
According to medical experts, people with high blood fat have some misconceptions that make adjusting their diet not as effective as expected. There are people who abstain very strictly, do not eat fat but compensate for the body's nutrition with starchy foods such as rice, noodles, pho... and other nutrients. In fact, Triglyceride is a form of stored energy, not only fat but also eating a lot of starch and energy-rich foods also causes Triglyceride to increase.
Some people think that because they are on a strict diet, they do not need to exercise or train. Meanwhile, being lazy is also the cause of increased Triglyceride because the energy that is not released will be converted into Triglyceride.
Cholesterol in the body is synthesized from two sources: Exogenous absorption from food accounts for 20% and endogenous synthesis by the liver accounts for 80%. Therefore, impaired liver function, especially in people over 50 years old, impaired fat metabolism in the liver can cause high blood fat index despite a scientific diet.
What to eat to reduce blood fat?
According to Dr. Nguyen Thi Hang - Former Deputy Director of Tue Tinh Hospital, people with high blood fat need a diet that both provides adequate nutrition and avoids increasing bad fat indexes.
You should not completely eliminate fat from your diet because it will affect your body's energy source and metabolic function. Instead, you should choose beneficial unsaturated fats found in fatty fish (herring, salmon, sardines), white meat, olive oil, sunflower oil, etc. Limit foods high in saturated fat (fatty meat, animal organs, fast food, etc.) and alcoholic beverages.
You should eat moderate amounts of starchy foods such as white rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, vermicelli, pho, etc. At the same time, increase the intake of vegetables, seeds, and fruits that are high in fiber to reduce the absorption of unhealthy fats.
Regarding exercise, people with high blood fat should exercise at least 30 minutes to 1 hour every day: Walking, yoga, cycling, playing badminton... to burn fat and reduce excess energy.
In particular, to control blood lipids, in addition to a reasonable diet and exercise regimen, patients need to combine solutions to improve liver function. Using herbal products is considered a safe and effective solution that both supports reducing blood lipids, protects the liver and enhances liver function.
