Umxholo
Hambisa ngaphezulu kwamafutha! Ukusukela namhlanje, kukho iqela elitsha lokutya eligwetywe ngokungekho sikweni edolophini: Ukutya okuphezulu kwi-cholesterol akusayi kuphinda kuthathwe njengengozi empilweni, ngokutsho kwengxelo eyilwayo evela kwiDietary Guidelines Advisory Committee. (Ngaba Sifanele Siyiphelise Ngokwenene Imfazwe Ngamafutha?)
"Ikomidi alinyanzelekanga ukuba lijike ingcebiso malunga nemingcipheko yamanqanaba aphezulu e-cholesterol ye-LDL, kodwa ihlaziya i-cholesterol yokutya njenge 'sisondlo esixhalabisayo,'" ucacisa uPenny Kris-Etherton, Ph.D., RD, uprofesa wesondlo IPennsylvania State University kunye nosomlomo weAmerican Heart Association.
Okokuqala, sithetha ngeendlela ezimbini ezahlukeneyo zecholesterol apha. I-cholesterol yegazi (zombini i-HDL, okanye i-cholesterol "elungileyo", kunye ne-LDL, okanye "i-cholesterol" embi), ifumaneka kwigazi lakho, kwaye amanqanaba angenampilo angabangela ukuhlaselwa yintliziyo okanye ukubetha. Loo nto yahlukile kwi-cholesterol yokutya, eyinkompawundi efumaneka kukutya okufana namaqanda, inyama ebomvu, kunye netshizi.
Yingcamango enkulu ephosakeleyo yokuba i-cholesterol yokutya ichaphazela amanqanaba e-cholesterol yegazi-uphando emva kokuba uphononongo luyichasile le nto, uyacacisa uJonny Bowden, Ph.D., umbhali we Intsomi enkulu yeKholesterol. (Yintoni enye efunyenwe enetyala ngokungalunganga? Oku kukutya okungalunganga okungalunganga kuwe.) ukunciphisa ezi zombini ukugcina intliziyo yakho isempilweni, uKris-Etherton uyacacisa. (Buza ugqirha wokutya: Ngaba kufuneka nditye kangakanani amafutha?)
Ngapha koko, ukuthatha ukutya okune-cholesterol ephezulu kuluhlu lwe-hit kunokunceda impilo yakho. "I-cholesterol yokutya ihlala ifumaneka kukutya okungasetyenziswanga kunye nezondlo eziphezulu, okwenza ukuba zilungele wena," u-Bowden wongeza. Amaqanda, umzekelo, anezondlo ezininzi ezinceda ingqondo yakho kunye nempilo yamehlo, singasathethi ke, ngumthombo omkhulu weprotheyini.
Ngelixa iphaneli ingakhange ikhuphe ingxelo yayo yokugqibela okwangoku, iya kubandakanya imeko efanayo neyiyilo, ngokuka IWashington Post. Ikomiti iya kuthumela iingcebiso zayo zokugqibela kwiSebe lezeMpilo kunye neeNkonzo zoLuntu kunye neSebe lezoLimo laseMelika, eliya kukhupha ilizwi lokugqibela lokutya kamva kulo nyaka.
Kude kube lelo xesha, yeyiphi eyona ndlela ilungileyo yokugcina amanqanaba egazini cholesterol esempilweni? "Abantu basafanele bacwangcise ukutya okunempilo kunye neentlobo ezininzi zokutya ezivela kuwo onke amaqela okutya, kubandakanya ukutya okuphezulu kwe-cholesterol-kodwa, njengawo onke amaqela okutya, kungekhona kwiimali ezigqithisileyo," kusho uKris-Etherton. (Kwaye utye ezona Zona ziqhamo ziLungileyo zokutya okuneNtliziyo-esempilweni.) Jonga ngaphaya kokutya kwakho: Uxinzelelo, ukutshaya, kunye nokutyeba kakhulu zizinto zonke ezibangela ukuba ube ne-cholesterol ephezulu kakhulu kunaleyo yokutya ikholesterol, uBowden wongeza.
Ubulungisa bunikezelwa-ngoku kunye ne-omelet yeqanda kunye netshizi. (Ukufumana uhlaziyo olungakumbi lokutya okusempilweni, khuphela uhlelo olukhethekileyo lwamva nje lwemagazini yethu yedijithali simahla!)
