      Traditional Chinese medicine has said that "medicine and food come from the same origin" since ancient times. Among the many secret recipes of traditional Chinese medicine, many are based on food and produce miraculous curative effects. Many ordinary foods in the daily diet are actually good medicines for lowering blood lipids.

      Soybeans:

      Soybeans and their products are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E and lecithin, all of which can lower blood cholesterol. What is particularly important is that soybeans and their products also contain soybean saponins (such as the foamy substance that floats when soy milk is boiled), which can effectively reduce blood lipids, lose weight, and prevent arteriosclerosis.

      cucumber:

      Cucumbers contain fine fiber, which can promote the excretion of putrefactive substances in the intestines and lower cholesterol. In addition, the propylene glycol acid contained in cucumbers can inhibit the conversion of carbohydrates into fat, which is especially suitable for patients with cardiovascular disease.

      garlic:

      British scientists have found that fresh garlic can significantly reduce the levels of harmful cholesterol in the blood. Garlic powder products can reduce cholesterol by 8%, while fresh garlic or garlic extract can reduce cholesterol by 15%. The lipid-lowering effect of garlic is related to the substance contained in garlic-allicin. This active component of garlic has antibacterial and anti-tumor properties, can prevent atherosclerosis, lower blood sugar and blood lipids, etc. Experiments have found that when a few drops of allicin are dropped into milk, the cholesterol in the milk is greatly reduced. Northerners eat raw garlic more than southerners and suffer from much less heart disease. This is because garlic can lower blood cholesterol and triglycerides.

      onion:

      Its blood lipid-lowering effect is related to the allyl disulfide and a small amount of sulfur amino acids it contains. These substances are glycosides. In addition to lowering blood lipids, they can also prevent atherosclerosis and are important for preventing cardiovascular disease. disease ideal food.

      milk:

      Containing carboxyl, methyl subepic acid, can inhibit the activity of cholesterol synthase in the human body, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of cholesterol and reducing blood cholesterol levels. In addition, milk contains more calcium, which can also reduce the body's absorption of cholesterol.

      Ginger:

      Ginger contains an organic compound similar to salicylic acid. The diluent and anticoagulant of dilute solutions of this substance have a good effect on lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure, and preventing thrombosis.

      Turtle:

      It has the function of nourishing yin and tonic. Experiments have shown that turtles can effectively reduce cholesterol levels after a high-fat diet.
