Cholesterol in our body

Folks, is weekdays again! It means the work started. I discovered my blog's traffic during weekend is quite low, people tend to go out often during weekend? Anyway, hope you all had a nice weekend.


Basically, 20% of cholesterol comes from our daily food intake, another 80% is made by our body itself. Thus, if you have a strong genetic of high cholesterol issue, you should be more careful in your food intake. Bad cholesterol can be raise up if consume high amount of fats. High saturated foods (fatty part of meat, full cream dairy products, fried foods or coconut milk) can turn to become cholesterol in our body. Saturated fat can comes from animals and plants sources while good cholesterol can only be raise up through exercise.

基本上，只有20％的胆固醇来自我们的食物，另有80％的是使我们的身体本身制造的。因此，如果有很强的高胆固醇遗传问题，更应限制高胆固醇和高脂肪食物的摄取。坏的胆固醇会被提高的，如果进食高胆固醇和高脂肪的食物。当食用高饱和脂肪的食物（动物的皮肉，全脂乳制品，油炸食品，椰浆等），它可以转化成为我们身体的胆固醇。饱和脂肪可以来自动物和植物来源。而好的胆固醇只能通过运动来增加。

I hope after reading this post, you may aware of you need to spend time on building good cholesterol. I bet you won't be risking your own health on consuming high saturated foods.
