Kodwa ingxaki ikuyo i-cholesterol 'embi'. Le siyibiza ngokuba yi-'LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein)'. Yiyo le nto inyusa umngcipheko wezifo ezinzulu ezifana nesifo sentliziyo kunye nestroke. Ngoko ke xa ujonga ingxelo yegazi, kubaluleke kakhulu ukunikel' ingqalelo kuzo zonke ezi xabiso, kungekuphela nje kwinqanaba le-cholesterol iyonke.
Kwenzeka ntoni ngokwenene kwi-LDL, i-cholesterol 'embi'?
I-cholesterol 'embi', okanye i-LDL, inokubangela iingxaki zempilo ezinzulu. Cinga ngemithambo yegazi yakho njengemibhobho ethwala amanzi. Le cholesterol ye-LDL inomkhwa wokwakhela ngaphakathi kweendonga zale mithambo yegazi. Ifana nothuli kunye nokungcola okwakhela ngaphakathi kwipayipi.
Xa oku kusenzeka, iiseli ezimhlophe zegazi ziyaqokelelana kwezo ndawo zize zibangele ukudumba nokudumba okuncinci. Ekuhambeni kwexesha, la mafutha kunye neeseli ezigciniweyo ziyaqokelelana zenze into esiyibiza ngokuba yi-'Plaque'. Le 'plaque' ikhula kancinci kancinci ize inciphise indawo yokuba igazi lihambe ngaphakathi kwimithambo yegazi. Oko kukuthi, iba ngumngxuma kwityhubhu.
Uhlaselo lwentliziyo okanye istroke ngokuqhelekileyo kwenzeka xa udonga lwaloo plaque lubuthathaka luze luqhekeke ngequbuliso. Emva koko kwakheka ihlwili legazi elijikeleze isilonda. Ukuba eli hlwili legazi livala ngokupheleleyo umthambo wegazi ngequbuliso, ukuhanjiswa kwegazi entliziyweni okanye engqondweni kunokuvalwa, nto leyo ebangela ezi meko zinzima.
Ungayijonga njani inqanaba le-cholesterol yakho?
Ugqirha wakho uza kujonga amanqanaba akho e-cholesterol ngovavanyo olulula lwegazi. Sidla ngokubiza oku ngokuthi 'yiLipid Profile'. Ngamanye amaxesha unokucelwa ukuba uzile ukutya iiyure ezili-10-12 ngaphambi kokuba unikele ngegazi. Kodwa oku akusoloko kuyimfuneko.
Olu vavanyo lwegazi luza kukuxelela oku:
- Inqanaba leCholesterol iyonke
- Amanqanaba e- LDL (i-Low-Density Lipoprotein), i-cholesterol 'embi'
- Amanqanaba e- HDL (i-High-Density Lipoprotein), i-cholesterol 'elungileyo'
- Inqanaba lolunye uhlobo lwamafutha egazini olubizwa ngokuba yi-triglycerides
Zonke ezi zinto ziyalinganiswa. Ugqirha wakho uza kujonga le ngxelo aze akuchazele ngokucacileyo indlela ezi mpawu ezichaphazela ngayo impilo yakho kunye nentsingiselo yazo.

| Yintoni enokwenziwa? | Kancinci ngayo |
|---|---|
| Ukufunda iilebheli zokutya | Jonga iilebheli zokutya okuthenga evenkileni uze ukhethe izinto ezinamafutha aphantsi. |
| Ukukhetha inyama elungileyo | Faka inkukhu nentlanzi ezingenalusu njengenyama yakho ephambili. Nciphisa inyama ebomvu (inyama yenkomo, inyama yehagu). |
| Imifuno, iziqhamo kunye nemifuno | Zalisa uninzi lwesitya sakho ngemifuno, iziqhamo, iimbotyi kunye neenkozo ezipheleleyo. |
| Ukuhlala usebenza (ukuzilolonga) | Nokuba ngumthambo olula njengokuhamba ngokukhawuleza imizuzu engama-30 ngosuku, ubuncinane iintsuku ezi-5 ngeveki, unokunceda kakhulu ekunciphiseni amanqanaba akho e-cholesterol. |
Ukuba ugqirha wakho ufumanisa ukuba inqanaba le-cholesterol yakho ye-LDL lisephezulu nangona kukho utshintsho kwindlela yokuphila, unokukunika iyeza elibizwa ngokuba yi-statin. Ngamanye amaxesha amanye amayeza anokunceda.

- Ukuyeka amayeza xa kuvela iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga: Ngamanye amaxesha amayeza anokubangela iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga ezincinci. Xa oku kusenzeka, kubalulekile ukuthetha nogqirha wakho ngoko nangoko uze uxoxe ngezinye iindlela, endaweni yokuyeka amayeza wedwa.

Oku kubangelwa yijini eguquliweyo edluliselwa kusapho ukuya kusapho. Le jini inciphisa amandla omzimba okususa i-LDL cholesterol egazini. Oku kunokubangela ukuba amanqanaba e-LDL abe phezulu ngokuphindwe kabini kunesiqhelo. Iindaba ezimnandi zezokuba oogqirha banokuyibona le meko kwangethuba kakhulu . Ngamanye amaxesha inokubonwa ekuzalweni okanye kwasebuntwaneni.
