Esikhathini esiningi, siyesaba uma sizwa igama elithi 'cholesterol'. Abanye abantu bacabanga ukuthi lesi yisifo esithinta abantu abakhuluphele kuphela. Kodwa iqiniso lihlukile kakhulu. Ngisho noma unciphile futhi uphilile, izinga lakho le-cholesterol egazini lingaba phezulu. Into esabekayo kakhulu ukuthi alibonisi zimpawu ezikhethekile ekuqaleni. Njengesitha esithule ngaphakathi emzimbeni wethu, i-cholesterol ephezulu ingaholela ezimweni ezimbi njengesifo senhliziyo, umfutho wegazi ophakeme, kanye nesifo sohlangothi ngokuhamba kwesikhathi.
Ingabe azikho ngempela izimpawu lapho i-cholesterol iphezulu?
Kalula nje, azikho izimpawu ezisobala ezihlobene ngqo ne-cholesterol ephezulu. Yileyo ingozi yalokhu. Ungaqhubeka nokuphila kwakho kwansuku zonke ngaphandle kwezinkinga, kodwa i-cholesterol ingafakwa emithanjeni yegazi emzimbeni.
Kodwa-ke, ngezinye izikhathi lapho amazinga e-cholesterol eba phezulu kakhulu, ikakhulukazi ngenxa yezimbangela zofuzo, kungase kuvele ezinye izimpawu.
- Ama-Xanthoma: Abanye abantu bangase babe namaqhubu aphuzi, athambile anamafutha ebusweni besikhumba sabo, ikakhulukazi eduze kwamehlo, izindololwane, amadolo, noma izinqe. Lawa abizwa ngokuthi ama-xanthoma. Uma uwabona, kungaba uphawu lokuthi amazinga e-cholesterol egazini lakho aphezulu kakhulu.
- Ukungabi namandla kwabesilisa: Ukufakwa kwe-cholesterol emithanjeni yegazi kungavimba ukuhamba kwegazi. Lesi simo singabangela ukungabi namandla kwabanye amadoda.
- Isifo Sikashukela kanye Nokukhuluphala: Abantu abaningi abanesifo sikashukela kanye nalabo abakhuluphele ngokweqile basengozini enkulu yokuba namazinga aphezulu e-cholesterol.
Into ebaluleke kakhulu ukuqaphela amazinga akho e-cholesterol ngaphandle kokulinda ukuthi kuvele izimpawu.
Iyini "iphrofayili ye-Lipid"?
Uma ubona udokotela futhi uthola ukuhlolwa kwegazi ukuze kuhlolwe i-cholesterol yakho, umbiko awusho nje ukuthi “i-cholesterol.” Unamanani amaningana. Lonke lolu vivinyo yilokho esikubiza ngokuthi “iphrofayili yamafutha.” Ake sibheke izingxenye eziyinhloko zalo.
- I-LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) I-Cholesterol: Yilokhu esikubiza ngokuthi “i-cholesterol embi.” Kalula nje, yilezo ezinqwabelana odongeni lwemithambo yegazi yethu, ziyinciphe futhi ziyivimbele, okuholela ezifweni ezifana nokuhlaselwa yinhliziyo kanye nohlangothi. Kubaluleke kakhulu ukugcina leli zinga liphansi.
- I-cholesterol ye-HDL (High-Density Lipoprotein): Yilokhu esikubiza ngokuthi “i-cholesterol enhle”Njengeqhawe, le cholesterol ye-HDL isiza ukuthwala i-cholesterol embi ye-LDL eqongeleleke emithanjeni yegazi iye esibindini futhi iyisuse emzimbeni. Ngakho-ke, uma izinga le-HDL liphezulu, kungcono kithi.
- Ama-Triglycerides: Lolu olunye uhlobo lwamafutha atholakala egazini lethu. Lena yindlela umzimba ogcina ngayo amakhalori engeziwe ekudleni esikudlayo. Amazinga aphezulu alokhu andisa nengozi yesifo senhliziyo.
Udokotela wakho uzobheka zonke lezi zindinganiso ukuze anqume ubungozi bakho besifo senhliziyo.
Yini esingayenza ukulawula i-cholesterol?
Izindaba ezinhle ukuthi amazinga e-cholesterol angalawulwa kakhulu ngokwenza izinguquko endleleni yokuphila.
Thola ukuhlolwa kwezokwelapha njalo.
Njengoba i-cholesterol ingenazo izimpawu, kubalulekile ukuthi amazinga akho e-cholesterol ahlolwe njalo eminyakeni engu-4-6 ngemva kweminyaka engu-20. Uma unesifo sikashukela, umfutho wegazi ophakeme, isifo senhliziyo, noma ukhuluphele ngokweqile, udokotela wakho angase akuncome ukuthi uhlolwe njalo.
Yenza ukuvivinya umzimba kube yingxenye yempilo yakho.
Ukuzivocavoca kuyindlela enhle yokwandisa i-HDL (i-cholesterol enhle) kanye nokwehlisa i-LDL (i-cholesterol embi). Akudingeki ugijime i-marathon. Ukuhamba ngokushesha, ukubhukuda, noma ukudansa imizuzu engama-30 ngosuku, izinsuku ezi-3-4 ngesonto, kwanele. Uma unesikhathi esilinganiselwe, ungazivocavoca futhi imizuzu eyi-10 izikhathi ezimbalwa ngosuku.
Yeka ukubhema ngokuphelele.
Ukubhema kunciphisa i-cholesterol yakho enhle (i-HDL). Lokhu kusho ukuthi i-cholesterol embi kakhulu (i-LDL) ihlala emzimbeni wakho. Ukubhema kuhlobene ngqo nezifo eziningi, njengesifo senhliziyo kanye nomfutho wegazi ophakeme. Ukuyeka ukubhema kuzothuthukisa amazinga akho e-cholesterol kanye nempilo yemithambo yegazi yakho.
Qaphela ukuthi udlani futhi uphuzani.
Ukudla esikudlayo kuthinta ngqo i-cholesterol, futhi kudingeka siqaphele kakhulu ngalokhu.
| Uhlobo lokudla | Izinto okufanele uzinciphise noma uziyeke (zandisa i-LDL embi) | Izinto ongazengeza ekudleni |
|---|---|---|
| Amafutha Agcwele | Inyama ebomvu njengenyama yenkomo, yengulube, nenyama yembuzi, ibhotela, ubisi olunamafutha agcwele, ushizi, ukhilimu, uwoyela wesundu, namafutha kakhukhunathi. | Inkukhu (isikhumba sisusiwe), inhlanzi. |
| Amafutha Ashintshiwe | Imikhiqizo yokubhaka, ukudla okulula okupakishiwe, ukudla okuthosiwe, imajarini. (Kungcono ukuyeka lokhu ngokuphelele). | Ukudla kwemvelo, ukudla okuphekwe ekhaya. |
| Ukudla kobisi | Ubisi olugcwele ukhilimu, ushizi. | Ubisi olunamafutha amancane, i-yogurt enamafutha aphansi. |
Gcina isisindo esinempilo.
Ukukhuluphala, ikakhulukazi amafutha angaphakathi , kwandisa i-cholesterol embi ye-LDL futhi kwehlisa i-cholesterol enhle ye-HDL. Ukulahlekelwa ngisho no-10% wesisindo sakho kungaba nomthelela omkhulu emazingeni akho e-cholesterol. Khuluma nodokotela wakho mayelana nohlelo lokudla nokuzivocavoca olungcono kakhulu kuwe.
Kufanele ubonane nodokotela ngokushesha nini?
Nakuba i-cholesterol ithule, kunezimpawu zezinkinga ezingase zivele kuyo. Uma wena noma othile emndenini wakho enanoma yiziphi zalezi zimpawu, funa iseluleko sezokwelapha ngokushesha.
| Izimo eziphuthumayo nezimpawu okufanele uziqaphele | |
|---|---|
| Amaqhubu athambile, aphuzi esikhumbeni (ama-Xanthomas) | Uma ubona lokhu esikhumbeni sakho noma sengane yakho, bona udokotela bese uxoxa ngokuhlolwa kwe-cholesterol. |
| Ubuhlungu ohlangothini lwesobunxele lwesifuba, umuzwa wokuqina esifubeni, ukuqina | Lokhu kungaba izimpawu zokuhlaselwa yinhliziyo noma i-angina. Yiya egumbini lezimo eziphuthumayo esibhedlela (ETU) ngokushesha. |
| Ukuzungeza okungazelelwe, ubunzima bokuhamba, ukukhuluma okungacacile, ukugoba kolunye uhlangothi lobuso | Lokhu kungaba izimpawu zokuhlaselwa yisifo sohlangothi. Yiya eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo wesibhedlela (ETU) ngokushesha. |
| Ubuhlungu bomlenze (ikakhulukazi uma uhamba futhi uphumule) | Lokhu kungaba uphawu lwe-atherosclerosis. Bonana nodokotela ngokushesha. |
Uma usuvele unezimo zezokwelapha ezifana nesifo sikashukela noma umfutho wegazi ophakeme, landela ukwelashwa okunikezwe udokotela wakho ngqo. Ungayeki imithi yakho. Qiniseka ukuthi ukhuluma nodokotela wakho ngaphambi kokushintsha uhlelo lwakho lokwelashwa.
Umlayezo Wokuya Nawe Ekhaya
- I-cholesterol ephezulu iyisitha esingabonakali esiza ngaphandle kwezimpawu. Ngakho-ke ungalindi kuze kuvele izimpawu.
- Ngemva kweminyaka engu-20, thola ukuhlolwa kwegazi njalo ukuze wazi izinga le-cholesterol yakho (Lipid Profile).
- Ukudla okunempilo, ukuvivinya umzimba, ukugwema ukubhema , kanye nokugcina isisindo esinempilo kubalulekile ekunciphiseni i-cholesterol embi (LDL) kanye nokwandisa i-cholesterol enhle (HDL).
- Uma unemibuzo mayelana ne-cholesterol, noma ufuna ukwazi ngokwelashwa, hlala uthintana nodokotela wakho.
- Uma uzwa izimpawu eziphuthumayo njengobuhlungu besifuba noma ukukhuluma okungacacile, hamba uye eMnyangweni Wezimo Eziphuthumayo (ETU) wesibhedlela ngokushesha.
