Especially when it comes to various cardiovascular diseases, doctors like to look at cholesterol, triglycerides, and similar laboratory parameters. These are called blood lipid levels. And if these are elevated in a certain constellation, we doctors also speak of so-called hyperlipoproteinemia, i.e., elevated lipid levels. High cholesterol and triglyceride levels don't initially cause any symptoms. However, they are significant risk factors for atherosclerosis. Anyone who wants to lower these levels must change their cherished eating and lifestyle habits. Target values ​​have been defined depending on the risk constellation. Unfortunately, for many affected individuals, these can often only be achieved with the help of medication. This is often because they are unwilling or unable to change their lifestyle, such as their eating and exercise habits. Cholesterol, LDL, and HDL Cholesterol is a fat molecule, a so-called lipid, that our liver produces daily and that we also absorb through food. It is an important building block for our body cells as well as for certain hormones, especially sex hormones. I've already explained in this video that cholesterol and fat are definitely part of a healthy diet. Feel free to take a look if you don't know it yet. So, it has five important functions: 1. Energy supplier, 2. Component of cell walls, 3. A precursor to vitamin D, 4. As a starting material for bile acids, which are necessary for our digestion, and 5. As a precursor to various hormones, e.g., sex hormones. Cholesterol is therefore vital, but too much cholesterol can be harmful to the body. Triglycerides Triglycerides are another blood lipid value that a doctor can examine. Triglycerides are all fats consisting of the trihydric alcohol glycerol and three long-chain fatty acids. Like cholesterol, they are transported in the blood by lipoproteins. When a doctor examines the triglyceride level in the blood, they want to determine whether there is a lipid metabolism disorder. Apolipoprotein B Apolipoproteins are components of lipoprotein cells, including HDL and LDL. Specifically, the subtype apolipoprotein B-100. It is the main protein in LDL. This laboratory parameter can be an indicator of certain diseases. If it is too high, i.e., above 1,000 mg/L, it can be an indication of, for example, 1) hypercholesterolemia, 2) bile duct obstruction, or 3) nephrotic syndrome. ⏩ Here are the links to the studies: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11067... https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27673...
