In an ordinary residential area in Beijing, there lives a middle-aged accountant named Li Ming. Li Ming has been suffering from insomnia lately, and he feels physically and mentally exhausted due to the high pressure of work. One morning, he decided to go to the hospital for a full body check-up and ask about insomnia.
In the waiting room of the hospital, Li Ming sat on a chair, feeling a little irritable. Soon, it was his turn. The doctor is an experienced veteran doctor named Dr. Zhao.
"Mr. Li, your insomnia may be related to your life Xi. Dr. Zhao said as he checked Li Ming's examination report.
Li Ming nodded in agreement.
Dr. Zhao continued, "However, I noticed that your blood lipids are a bit high. It is the season to eat citrus, you have to pay attention to the fact that patients with high blood lipids should not consume citrus in excess, otherwise it may make blood lipids 'rise'. ”
"Really? I thought citrus was good for health. Li Ming was a little surprised.
Dr. Zhao explains, "Citrus is indeed rich in vitamin C, which has health benefits. However, for people with hyperlipidemia, excessive consumption may increase blood lipids due to the sugar and certain components contained in it. So, everything in moderation. ”
Li Ming listened attentively, and he realized that his diet Xi habits might need to be adjusted.
"There are a large number of studies that show that hyperlipidemia is an important risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Proper diet and lifestyle Xi are very important for controlling blood lipids. Dr. Zhao added.
Li Ming nodded, indicating that he understood.
"I once met a patient with high blood lipids who adjusted his diet and reduced his intake of high-fat and high-sugar foods at my suggestion, and his blood lipid level dropped significantly. ”
After listening to Dr. Zhao's explanation, Li Ming decided to start adjusting his diet Xi habits when he returned home.
As he was leaving the clinic, Dr. Zhao suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Mr. Li, do you know why some people are more likely to feel sleepy in winter?"
Li Ming stopped and looked back at Dr. Zhao curiously.
Dr. Zhao smiled and explained, "This problem seems to have nothing to do with the hyperlipidemia we discussed, but there is actually a certain connection. In winter, due to the decrease in sunlight, people's activity decreases, and the metabolism slows down, which may lead to a slowdown in the metabolism of body fat and sugar, which is a challenge for patients with hyperlipidemia.
So, even in winter, maintaining a moderate amount of exercise and a reasonable diet is very important to maintain health. ”
These words made Li Ming suddenly realize, and he felt that he had not only solved his confusion, but also learned a lot of new knowledge. He thanked Dr. Zhao for his advice and walked out of the hospital with a new understanding and plan.
