Probiotics and Rich Diseases (First: High Cholesterol)

Now with the improvement of living standards, we eat significantly better. But industrialization has led us to change our past dietary habits with natural foods. At the same time, environmental pollution makes our food more or less polluted. A variety of foods are becoming more and more fine, high-sugar, high-fat, high-protein food production, the use of various additives and the constant concentration of toxins, coupled with lack of exercise and bad habits, our bodies, especially blood vessels are overwhelmed. More and more modern rich diseases approach our lives, high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, high blood sugar "three high" typical symptoms based on high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, obesity and other cardiovascular diseases have become the first killer of modern human society.probiotics as the scavenger of the intestine, first of all from the main source of nutrient absorption - the intestine for us reasonable allocation of various nutrients, clean up the body of garbage. After the human body eats food, nutrients generally go through the following process: intestinal digestion and absorption - liver detoxification - blood circulation - absorption of organs. So the intestine is the first pass of food into the human body, the intestinal probiotics belong to the inspection. Let's see how probiotics deal with a variety of rich diseases.probiotics and high cholesterolcholesterol is a type of fat. Moderate amounts of cholesterol are important for maintaining the composition and function of cell membranes, the formation of steroid hormones, bile acids and the synthesis of vitamin
D3
. However, excessive cholesterol may induce coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, myocardial infarction and other chronic diseases. More than
million Americans
heart attack caused by coronary heart disease each year.When there is too much cholesterol in the blood, they are deposited on the walls of blood vessels as the blood circulates, narrowing blood vessels under the effect of serum fibrin, slowing blood flow and possibly even clogging blood vessels. As you get older, this blockage gradually makes the arterial blood vessels hard and hard, blood pressure rises, and nutrients and oxygen in the blood don't reach the required areas very well. This eventually leads to coronary heart disease (i.e. hardening of the coronary arteries).In recent years, the main way to lower cholesterol has been to reduce the levels of
LDL-C
(LDL-Cholesterol) and
HDL-C
(HDL-Cholesterol) from the transport mechanism of cholesterol.
LDL-C
is lipoprotein that transports cholesterol from the whole body to the blood, and
HDL-C
is lipoprotein that transports cholesterol from the blood to the whole body. Reduces
LDL-C
, which reduces body-to-blood cholesterol and lowers blood cholesterol. Similarly elevated
HDL-C
blood cholesterol is reduced.there is also a drug paradox. There are many drugs on the market that lower cholesterol, but they can have serious side effects.
PDR
pregnant women and people with liver and kidney disease to avoid cholesterol-lowering drugs. Even in healthy people, these drugs often cause abdominal pain, allergic reactions, mood imbalances, hair loss, vision changes, headaches, sore throats and muscle degeneration. Some patients have impotence and decreased libido after taking these drugs.
At this time, probiotic therapy highlights the advantages. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments have shown that probiotics can lower serum cholesterol levels. Some tribal surveys in Africa have found that people have been taking lactic acid bacteria fermented milk for a long time, and serum cholesterol levels are significantly lower than in the general population. Probiotics are thought to use three different methods to lower cholesterol. First, probiotics interfere with the intestinal absorption of cholesterol. This effect is obvious when a large number of probiotics are present. Second, probiotics can directly assailate and absorb cholesterol. Lower cholesterol levels when probiotics are placed in high cholesterol mediums for growth. This mechanism was confirmed in this experiment. Third, probiotics produce metabolites that can affect blood lipid levels in the system. The bile hydrolysis enzyme produced by probiotics promotes the precipitation of cholesterol and bile acid. Reduces the chance of cholesterol entering the bloodstream.a Swedish study,
30,
subjects were divided into two groups, one eating
200ml of juice containing
50 million active lactobacillus per milliliter per day, and the other drinking juice free of probiotics. After six weeks, serum cholesterol and fibrin levels decreased significantly in the first group. There was no significant change in the other group as a control.
