High cholesterol eat eggs will get heart disease?

Some on the heart health of seven kinds of ideas, some correct and some wrong, see what your idea needs to be updated.


These four approaches are wrong

To maintain a healthy heart, I just abide by a low-fat diet on the line

Have a heart-healthy recipes need to include a useful body fat. To efforts to control the intake of saturated fat because saturated fats raise cholesterol levels. To avoid the intake of trans fatty acids (many processed biscuits, cookies and other snacks in there), this fat is particularly dangerous. Try to unsaturated fats (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, sesame and corn oil, nuts, etc.) instead of saturated fat, which helps lower cholesterol levels. In addition, we control the calories and food intake, which is composed of an important factor in heart-healthy recipes.

My total cholesterol level is low, you can sit back and relax

Total cholesterol level can not fully reflect the situation. Depends on LDL (low density cholesterol) and HDL (high density cholesterol) levels, the former high levels increase the risk of coronary heart disease risk, if the latter is high, we can reduce this risk.

You can have unlimited consumption of heart-healthy olive oil and canola oil

Even if the "good" fat in also contains some saturated fat. And vegetable oils contain saturated fat with calories contained in the same.

Overall, soft or liquid margarine that contains saturated fat than hard margarine, which may contain harmful trans fats. Nutrition experts suggest that as consumption of margarine containing plant sterols, which help lower cholesterol.

If you are concerned about their cholesterol levels, reducing saturated fat diet lowers cholesterol more important than

The saturated fat in food than anything you eat can increase blood cholesterol levels are.
