Beware of the Combination of Hyperlipidemia and Inflammation
Combining these two conditions might create a pivotal risk factor for cardiovascular disorders, but they are manageable.
Like sugar, fats also create a paradoxical situation for the body. Too much or too little lipids (dyslipidemia) can be problematic for the homeostasis, function, and performance of the body.
In this post, I focus on hyperlipidemia which refers to excessive fat molecules in the bloodstream caused by multiple factors. If untreated, hyperlipidemia can lead to severe health issues.
I also touch on chronic inflammation, as when combined with hyperlipidemia, the risk factors for cardiovascular diseases skyrocket. Therefore hyperlipidemia and inflammation play a pivotal role.
I structured the article under three headings. First, I provide an overview of hyperlipidemia and inflammation. Then I discuss their combined effects as paramount risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and other metabolic disorders, creating a catch-22 situation.
The combination is a catch-22 situation as they create each other in intricate ways yet to be understood by scientists and clinicians, and they soar the risks of heart attacks and strokes.
