오메가 3 부작용Hyperlipidemia may occur due to an increase in specific lipids in the blood due to genetic factors, or it may also occur due to other causes such as obesity, alcohol, or diabetes. It is also called dyslipidemia. There are no noticeable symptoms of hyperlipidemia, so it is difficult to detect early symptoms of hyperlipidemia. In most cases, there are no symptoms, but if complications occur in some cases, related symptoms may occur, so be careful. Even if there are no symptoms if there is too much cholesterol in our body, it can progress to fatal diseases such as arteriosclerosis or myocardial infarction, so treatment is necessary.
Medication must be taken during treatment. If you stop taking the medication, your cholesterol level will rise, so you should not stop taking the medication at your own discretion. Hyperlipidemia side effects mostly occur with statins, which are primarily used drugs. If you experience symptoms such as muscle pain, increased blood sugar, muscle lethargy, or fatigue (deteriorated liver function) while taking hyperlipidemia medication, you should go to the hospital.
There is a saying that omega-3 and krill oil are good for hyperlipidemia. However, patients with hyperlipidemia may experience worsening symptoms, so it is best to avoid omega-3 intake if symptoms are severe. However, omega-3 extracted from krill oil is said to be somewhat helpful in treating dyslipidemia (hyperlipidemia) by lowering LDL cholesterol levels.
Prevention measures can lower cholesterol to a desirable level by simply changing lifestyle habits. Sometimes, it is necessary to take medication as well as diet and lifestyle changes. It is important to eat low-fat, low-cholesterol, healthy foods and develop regular exercise habits. It is recommended to exercise for at least 1 hour at least 3 times a week. You should only take lipid-lowering drugs if necessary, and if you are over 20 years of age, you should have a lipid test done about once every five years. Hyperlipidemia is diagnosed by collecting blood after fasting. If total cholesterol is over 200 mg/dL, triglyceride is over 150 mg/dL, and LDL cholesterol is over 130 mg/dL, hyperlipidemia is diagnosed.
