DIET anti cholesterol.With great pleasure  answer many of my sailors of  Website explaining that the future supply is the slow-food, food that is a return to the past of our ancestors, who roamed the countryside of Milazzo and surroundings and Reserve Chief, to gather the love soups: borage, dandelion and wild minestrella. Here we will explain the importance of vegetables and fiber in general and oil right feeder of hyperlipidemic, especially diabetes and ischemic heart disease.

Although lipid nutrient-rich energy (9 kcal (37 kJ) per gram) present in the form of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, however, the ideal diet for patients with dyslipidemia have to be a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol but high in fiber and low GI complex sugars. Fact must be given preference to foods of plant origin, preferring consumption of complex carbohydrates, like pasta, rice, barley, pearl barley (see corn), removing the dressings of animal origin (cf. proper diet), that we must avoid foods that are rich in saturated fats such as butter, lard, cream and bacon (!) and foods rich in cholesterol (egg yolk and all prepared with eggs, like pasta and pastries stuffed with cream and creams butter, sausages, offal and cheese.

It 'clear that the body needs food with polyunsaturated fat, that should prefer the extra virgin olive oil, use some special vegetables such as borage, which contains gamma-linolenic acid. In particular polyunsaturated fatty acids are important in childhood, as they constitute the cell membranes of all tissues, particularly nerve cells and retina.


Another problem is that the diet they must necessarily because a majority of them can not be synthesized in the body. For man is unable to produce α-linolenic acid (an acid omega3 unsaturated) acid and linoleic (omega 6) which are then defined "essential fatty acids" and must be introduced with food. Moreover, although we can extend α chain eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), contained in oily fish and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA long chain), this summary may not be sufficient to cover the needs therefore recommend introducing foods that are taking are rich, like bluefish. For cholesterol, does not require a particular restriction in the diet of children and children who may have a contribution of up to 100 mg/1000 kcal. This value should be reduced after two years of life. After the second year is recommended a gradual reduction to 25% compared to adolescence.
