I'm OKETANI.
This time, I will introduce a food that has the effect of lowering cholesterol and neutral fat without taking medicine.
At the beginning of the video, I will explain why cholesterol is bad for the body.
Next, I will introduce a food that has the effect of lowering cholesterol.
If you want to see it from the middle, please skip to the end of the video.
Many of you who are watching this video have been told by your doctor that you have a high level of cholesterol.
That's why many of you are trying to improve your diet and exercise.
Some of you may be taking medicine every day.
If you have a high level of cholesterol, you may die suddenly due to various bad effects on your body.
However, even if you have a high level of cholesterol, you will not get sick immediately.
That's why some people eat only what they like without exercising.
However, if you don't improve your lifestyle, you may get sick due to cholesterol.
If you get sick, you will have a hard time not only for yourself but also for your family and other people around you.
If you get sick, you should have taken measures to lower your cholesterol.
So, in this video, I will introduce 6 foods that have the effect of lowering cholesterol.
Instead of eating what you always eat, just eat what I will introduce today to lower cholesterol and prevent illness.
Also, people who are taking medicine now can reduce or lose the amount of medicine by eating what I will introduce today.
I would like you to watch the video until the end and use it for your health.
Let's get started.
When you hear cholesterol, you tend to think it's bad for your body.
In fact, cholesterol is essential for the body.
Because cholesterol is a type of fatty acid and is necessary as a cell membrane, hormone, and carbohydrate.
There are two types of cholesterol, LDL, which is called bad cholesterol, and HDL, which is called good cholesterol.
Bad cholesterol, LDL, carries the cholesterol produced in the liver to the bloodstream and carries it all over the body.
Good cholesterol, HDL, recovers the excess cholesterol and returns it to the liver.
It is often said that high cholesterol is a high concentration of bad cholesterol, LDL, in the bloodstream.
LDL has a standard value of 70 to 140, so if it exceeds that value, it means that cholesterol is high.
When bad cholesterol is high, the excess cholesterol sticks to the wall of the blood vessel and the blood vessel becomes hard and fragile.
This is called the atherosclerosis effect, but I think many people have heard of it.
The hard and fragile blood vessels lose their flexibility, so they can be clogged or torn.
If the blood vessels in the head are clogged or torn, there will be cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.,
and if a heart defect occurs, there will be myocardial infarction or myocardial infarction.
If you get these diseases, some people who were fine until yesterday may suddenly die, and even if they take their lives, there may be severe myocardial infarction.
In short, if cholesterol is high, the atherosclerosis effect will progress and it will affect the brain and heart disease, so it is bad for the body.
Therefore, not only those who have high cholesterol, but also those who are fine now need to be careful not to have high cholesterol from day to day.
So, as a countermeasure that can be done from today, I will introduce you to foods that have the effect of lowering cholesterol.
Foods that lower cholesterol.
The first is blue fish.
Blue fish such as mackerel, sardines, mackerel, etc. are rich in Eicosapentaenic acid, EPA, and Docosahexaenic acid, DHA.
EPA and DHA are a type of unsaturated fatty acids and have the effect of lowering cholesterol.
On the contrary, fatty meats, butter, lard, etc. contain saturated fatty acids and raise cholesterol.
Therefore, if you have eaten meat well so far, you can effectively lower cholesterol by eating blue fish instead of meat.
If you find it troublesome to cook fish, canned fish such as mackerel can be okay, and if you are not good at fish, you can also take supplements.
It is convenient to purchase canned fish and supplements online.
I will put a link in the summary column, so if you are interested, please check it out.
Foods that lower cholesterol.
The second is tofu.
Soy protein contained in tofu has the effect of lowering cholesterol.
In addition, in order to repair the damaged blood vessels caused by the anemia effect, it is necessary to take protein, which is the material of the blood vessels.
Soy protein is a material of high-quality blood vessels, and tofu is quickly digested and absorbed quickly after being decomposed by the stomach.
Therefore, tofu can be said to be a food that is gentle on the blood vessels that helps to repair and regenerate damaged blood vessels with the effect of lowering cholesterol.
Soy milk, which is made from soybeans like tofu, also has the same effect.
It is recommended to use unadjusted ingredients such as soy milk that do not contain extra ingredients.
You can buy it online, so I will put a link in the summary column.
Foods that lower cholesterol.
The third is natto.
Natto contains a lot of soy protein, just like tofu, so it has the effect of lowering cholesterol.
In addition, natto contains natto kinase.
Natto kinase is one of the enzymes that decompose the protein produced by the natto bacteria.
This natto kinase has the effect of dissolving blood vessels.
A blood vessel is a lump of blood that can be found in the blood vessels, and it is like a scab that can be made when injured.
In a state where the blood vessels are smooth, the blood vessels formed for the purpose of bleeding will be dissolved over time due to enzymes in the blood vessels.
However, in a state of dirty blood with high cholesterol, the enzyme that dissolves the blood vessels becomes less likely to work, and the blood vessels become larger and larger without being dissolved.
This makes it easier for blood vessels to clog, making it easier for it to become a brain enzyme or a nervous enzyme.
Natto kinase can prevent brain enzymes and nervous enzymes by removing the cause of clogging the blood vessels by dissolving the blood vessels.
In other words, natto has the effect of lowering cholesterol and the effect of dissolving blood vessels that have become difficult to dissolve with cholesterol.
The fourth food to lower cholesterol is nuts.
Speaking of nuts, I think there is an image of a snack, but in fact nuts such as walnuts and almonds have the effect of lowering cholesterol.
Nuts contain a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, so it lowers cholesterol just like the blue fish.
The recommended way to eat nuts is to eat them as a snack.
Speaking of snacks, snacks, cookies, donuts, and cakes are the standard, but these contain a lot of unsaturated fatty acids such as margarine, butter, and cream, so they raise cholesterol.
Therefore, if you eat nuts as a snack instead of these, you can effectively lower cholesterol.
However, if you eat too much salty nuts or eat too much, you will over-saturate and over-calorie, so let's keep the unsaturated nuts to the extent that they are lightly on one hand.
Nuts that are separated by unsaturated fat are recommended because they can prevent over-saturation and overeating.
I will put a link in the summary column, so please refer to it.
Food to Lower Cholesterol
The fifth is seaweed.
Alginic acid, which is included in kelp, seaweed, hijiki, and mozuku, has the effect of lowering cholesterol.
Alginic acid is a slimy ingredient in seaweed and is a type of natural dietary fiber.
Alginic acid adsorbs cholesterol in the intestines and produces it.
In addition, one of the causes of high blood pressure is oversaturation of salt, but potassium contained in seaweed has the effect of excreting excess salt in the body, which is also effective in preventing high blood pressure.
Food to Lower Cholesterol
The sixth is mushrooms.
Mushrooms such as shimeji, enoki, and eringi are rich in dietary fiber.
Dietary fiber slowly moves through the intestinal tract, wrapping cholesterol and expelling it to the body.
In actual research, there is also a report that eringi or shimeji improved the value of bad cholesterol by eating 100 grams every day for two weeks.
In addition, mushrooms have a good bite and stimulate satiety, so it is recommended because it also suppresses the rise of cholesterol from overeating.
Let's summarize at the end.
When the value of bad cholesterol, LDL, increases, the acetylcholesterol effect progresses and it becomes easier to develop diseases such as stroke and myocardial infarction.
Blue fish, tofu, natto, nuts, seaweed, and mushrooms have the effect of lowering cholesterol.
Let's take good food that has the effect of lowering cholesterol and prevent the rise of cholesterol.
