Cholesterol is the topic of a flood of articles and medical advice about heart health, but experts explain that cholesterol is not necessarily bad.
First of all, humans need cholesterol.
This soft, wax-like substance is found not only in blood vessels but also in every cell.
Cholesterol is necessary for the production of hormones such as estrogen and testosterone and bile acids that help digest fats.
Furthermore, cholesterol also helps with memory and is essential for many nerve functions.
In short, if you've managed to read this far, you should thank cholesterol.
However, all jokes aside, like everything in life, even in the case of cholesterol, balances are fragile.
If your body contains high amounts of bad cholesterol, then the damage is great.
Good Cholesterol and Bad Cholesterol
Cholesterol is divided into three categories: low-density lipoprotein, very low-density lipoprotein, and very high-density lipoprotein.
High-density lipoprotein is very good for health.
Bad cholesterol does not necessarily manifest itself with specific symptoms, so it is often known as the 'silent killer.'
According to experts, a healthy cholesterol level is as follows:
Total cholesterol should be less than 200 mg/dl (milligrams per deciliter of blood)
LDL cholesterol should be less than 100 mg/dl.
LDL cholesterol should be 40 mg/dl or slightly higher.
Triglyceride levels should be lower than 150 mg/dl.
What Does Cholesterol Have to Do with the Thyroid?
The thyroid is responsible for releasing hormones that control metabolism, which directs how the body uses energy.
Thyroid hormones regulate breathing, body weight, body temperature, heart rate, and the nervous system.
What researchers didn't know until now is that thyroid problems increase bad cholesterol levels.
In some cases, the thyroid produces too much or significantly less hormones, which causes a variety of problems.
If you suffer from hypothyroidism, then the lack of hormones means more bad cholesterol in the blood.
Low hormones in the body fail to clear cholesterol from the blood, significantly increasing its levels and increasing the risk of heart disease.
Balanced Diet
People suffering from hypothyroidism cannot follow a specific dietary regimen, however, they should ensure that this regimen is balanced.
Doctors suggest that eating too much of a certain food is harmful to the body. Consequently, they suggest a rich mix of fruits and vegetables.
Foods to Avoid
Coffee and soy are two products that reduce the body's ability to utilize medications that affect hormones.
Foods like broccoli and spinach should be consumed with caution and not in excess because they are rich in iodine.
Healthy Fats
According to AgroWeb.org data, a lack of healthy fats causes hormonal imbalances.
Healthy fats are the building blocks of most hormones. They are found in avocados, olive oil, coconut oil, flaxseeds, fish, yogurt, cheese, and nuts.
Gluten
Patients suffering from hypothyroidism should avoid foods rich in gluten because they trigger the immune system to attack the thyroid.
Bread, pasta, spices, wheat and barley are some examples of gluten-rich foods that should be avoided./AgroWeb.org
