Why does losing weight not succeed, but blood lipids rise?

As a doctor, I want to tell you clearly that if you are a friend who loses weight, your weight will drop, but your blood fat will rise, which may be caused by unhealthy ways to lose weight.

It is a good practice when we can realize the harm of obesity to health and consciously control our weight, but if we can't lose weight correctly and scientifically, losing weight may also cause fatty liver, hyperlipidemia and other problems.

Some friends are very strict with themselves in order to lose weight, and they have to go on a diet, and it is a very heavy diet. Because the food intake is greatly reduced, the effect of losing weight is often obvious, and the speed of losing weight is also very fast. But I don't know, if the body can't get enough good nutritional supplements during the process of losing weight, it will also bring health risks. If it is unhealthy excessive dieting, it will really accelerate the body's fat decomposition. But it also consumes a lot of glutathione in the liver. Glutathione deficiency will lead to liver detoxification and weakened metabolic function, so that toxins that can be metabolized can accumulate in the liver and damage liver cells. After liver cells are damaged, the metabolism of blood lipids will be affected. Because of excessive dieting, the liver will be damaged and hyperlipidemia will occur. This is not uncommon.

situation

In May last year, Xiao Li started running and gradually jogged from three kilometers to five kilometers. Faster and faster, higher and higher intensity. At the same time, he also controls his diet. Of course, his work is also very labor intensive. About a month and a half later, he lost ten pounds. Since Xiao Li feels good! I didn't expect my blood fat to rise after losing weight. I got fatty liver!

At this time, I met the annual physical examination. Since Xiao Li felt good, she took blood and checked the B-ultrasound, but the result surprised Xiao Li, with high blood lipid and even fatty liver! Let Xiao Li be puzzled.

Cause analysis?

1, it is undeniable that obesity is a common cause of elevated blood lipids and fatty liver. Our fat brothers and sisters, act quickly!

2, friends who drink alcohol are recruited. Alcohol is easy to damage the liver and cause fat metabolism disorder. It is necessary to quit smoking and drinking. I can't afford to get hurt, bite my teeth, or quit.

3, I have to say that this situation of Xiao Li belongs to fatty liver with rapid weight loss! Fasting, excessive dieting or other rapid weight loss measures can cause a large increase in lipolysis in a short time, consume glutathione (GSH) in the liver, increase malondialdehyde and lipid peroxide in the liver, damage liver cells and lead to fatty liver.

There are many factors leading to abnormal blood lipid metabolism. Obesity is one of the risk factors, but it is not the only one, nor is it the most important. In addition to obesity, the following factors may lead to abnormal blood lipid metabolism and hyperlipidemia.

1. age: aging will reduce the metabolic capacity of the human body, including the metabolic capacity of blood lipids;

2. Family genetic factors: If immediate family members have hyperlipidemia problems, the influence of family genes will often be passed on to the next generation;

3. Related diseases: liver problems, kidney diseases, thyroid function problems, diabetes and other diseases may affect blood lipid metabolism and lead to hyperlipidemia;

4. The role of some drugs: Many drugs will affect the metabolism of blood lipids. For example, metoprolol, a commonly used antihypertensive drug, may affect blood lipid metabolism if taken for a long time.

5. Influence of bad habits: Smoking and drinking, sitting for a long time and staying up late are all bad habits that lead to abnormal blood lipid metabolism and hyperlipidemia. If you persist in these bad habits for a long time, no matter whether you are obese or not, hyperlipidemia will find you.

Therefore, the problem of hyperlipidemia should not only consider whether you are fat or thin. In order to effectively improve the problem of hyperlipidemia, we should not only lose weight and control weight, but also analyze the causes from various aspects, and control related diseases, adjust drugs taken or improve various bad habits that affect blood lipid metabolism according to various possible causes of hyperlipidemia.

Beauty is the main thing, but health is more important. If you want to lose weight, you should realize it through reasonable diet conditioning and strengthening exercise on the premise that the body can fully supplement the required nutrition. The premise of losing weight should be to ensure good health. Excessive dieting may lead to fatty liver, hyperlipidemia and other problems.
