High-fat foods
Foods such as pork fat, fatty pork, butter, fatty beef... contain many saturated fatty acids. When eating too many of these foods, fats in food can accumulate on the walls of blood vessels, increasing blood viscosity and affecting cardiovascular health.
Therefore, the amount of fat in the daily diet should account for less than 30% of total energy, of which saturated fatty acids should be less than 7%.
Foods rich in cholesterol
Some foods with high cholesterol content such as animal organs (liver, kidneys...), egg yolks, fish eggs, squid...
Cholesterol is essential for the body, but consuming too much can be harmful to health. Many people have a habit of eating animal organs because they think "eat what is nutritious", but in fact, organs often contain quite high levels of cholesterol.
Therefore, you should limit eating animal organs to avoid absorbing too much cholesterol.
In seafood such as shrimp, crab, sardines or clams, cholesterol is often concentrated in the head and eggs. Removing these parts can help reduce the amount of cholesterol introduced into the body.
High-sugar food
Do not eat too much sugar and candies, sweets. When entering the body, sugar can be converted into triglycerides, increasing blood fat.
Alcoholic beverages
Alcoholic beverages such as strong drinks, beer or fruit wine can affect fat metabolism. Alcohol stimulates the release of fatty acids from fat tissue into the blood, while slowing down the process of fat excretion in the blood, thereby increasing the risk of dyslipidemia.
Therefore, you should limit or avoid drinking alcohol to protect cardiovascular health.
