Therapeutic Indications Of Lipofirate 145 Mg Tablets

• Cholesterol is a naturally occurring substance in the body necessary for normal growth. However, if there is too much cholesterol in your blood, it can build up on blood vessel walls, increasing the risk of blood clots and cardiovascular events. This is one of the most common causes of heart disease.

Non-Pharmacological Treatments & Advice To Reduce Cholesterol Level In The Blood

• Reduce saturated fats. Saturated fats, found primarily in red meat and full-fat dairy products, raise your total cholesterol.


• Eliminate trans fats. Trans fats, sometimes listed on food labels as "partially hydrogenated vegetable oil," are often used in margarine and store-bought cookies, crackers, and cakes. Trans fats raise overall cholesterol levels.


• Eat foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids or use an omega-3 supplement like Omegat Omega 3 Capsules or Paradox Omega 3 Capsules


• Increase soluble fiber. Soluble fiber can reduce the absorption of cholesterol into your bloodstream. Soluble fiber is found in such foods as oatmeal, kidney beans, Brussels sprouts, apples, and pears.


• Exercise on most days of the week and increase your physical activity, work up to at least 30 minutes of exercise five times a week


• Quitting smoking improves your HDL cholesterol level.


• Losing weight will help you to reduce your triglyceride levels. A 5–10 percent weight loss can decrease triglyceride levels by 20 percent. Rondiet Capsules & Ronfit Capsules will help you to decrease your body weight


• Sometimes healthy lifestyle changes aren't enough to lower cholesterol levels. If your doctor recommends medication to help lower your cholesterol, take it as prescribed while continuing your lifestyle changes. Lifestyle changes can help you keep your medication dose low.
