summary

Can hyperlipidemia be inherited? For this problem, many patients are very concerned, but do not know whether it will be inherited to their children, because once the inheritance will bring a great impact on children's life, then, let's understand whether hyperlipidemia will be inherited!

Is there any relationship between hyperlipidemia and heredity?

The etiology of hyperlipoproteinemia can be divided into primary and secondary. The primary disease is caused by congenital defect (or hereditary defect) of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism, and can also be caused by diet, nutrition and other factors; The secondary ones are mainly secondary to diabetes, hypothyroidism, gout, liver disease, kidney disease, etc.

Experts believe that hyperlipidemia has a certain genetic probability. According to the research, if there are multiple patients with hyperlipidemia in the family, then hyperlipidemia will follow certain rules and be inherited in the family. Not high blood lipid will not be directly inherited to the children, but will increase the risk of hyperlipidemia in their offspring through the genes that affect fat synthesis and metabolism.

Hyperlipidemia is not a very difficult disease to cure, but we should choose a scientific treatment plan, reasonably adjust the personal diet structure, patients need to choose low calorie, low fat, high fiber food, should strictly control the calorie intake every day, should eat more vegetables, fruits, beans, lean meat, seafood, vegetables and so on, The intake of salt needs to be controlled well, not more than eight grams.

matters needing attention

Patients with hyperlipidemia can use drugs to alleviate the disease. Due to the high blood lipid in the human body, it may lead to the symptoms of coronary heart disease and cerebral apoplexy. We need to adjust the diet structure and take some drugs to reduce blood lipid. The representative drugs are hawthorn, Danshen, Alisma orientalis, Shouwu, cassia seed, polygonatum, Pueraria, Puhuang, lotus leaf, If the patients with moderate hyperlipidemia can consider taking antioxidants, such as anthocyanins and other plant extracts. If the patients with severe hyperlipidemia can take betaine drugs to interfere with the metabolism of triglycerides.
