Ama-American aseMelika aphansi kakhulu I-Cholesterol kodwa i-High Heart Disease-Kungani?
Nakuba abacwaningi bengaqiniseki ukuthi kungani, ubufakazi bubonisa ukuthi abase-Afrika baseMelika banethuba elingamaphesenti angu-30 lokufa ngesifo senhliziyo kunabaseCaucasus baseMelika. Kodwa, ngokusho kwezibalo ezivela ku-American Heart Association, abamnyama empeleni banezilinganiso ezingcono kakhulu ze- cholesterol kunabamhlophe. Izizathu ezivela kulezi zinto zingenakuqhathaniswa, kodwa abacwaningi basondela ekutholeni imbangela.
Ngokusho kwe-American Heart Association, amadoda nabesifazane abamnyama bavame ukuba namazinga e-cholesterol angaphansi kakhulu kunamhlophe. Le nhlangano ibika ukuthi amaphesenti angu-44.8 abantu abamnyama namaphesenti angu-42.1 abesifazane abamnyama banamazinga aphezulu noma aphezulu emkhakheni we-cholesterol. Uma kuqhathaniswa, amaphesenti angu 47,9 kanye namaphesenti angu 49.7 wamadoda nabesifazane abamhlophe banamazinga aphezulu noma aphezulu.
Amadoda amnyama abe namazinga aphezulu abikezelwe e- LDL , aphansi-volensity lipoprotein, "ama-cholesterol amabi", amazinga. Le nhlangano ibika ukuthi amaphesenti angama-32.4 wamadoda amnyama namaphesenti angu-31.7 wamadoda amhlophe anamazinga aphezulu noma aphezulu e-LDL. Bobabili amadoda nabesifazane abamnyama babe ne-HDL ephakeme kakhulu, noma i-lipoprotein ephakeme kakhulu, eyaziwa ngokuthi i-cholesterol enhle.
Naphezu kwamazinga ephansi we-cholesterol, abacwaningi babika ukuthi abase-Afrika baseMelika basengozini enkulu yokufa kwesifo senhliziyo . Ngokusho kweHhovisi le-Minority Health eMnyangweni wezeMpilo waseMelika kanye nezinsizakalo zabasebenzi, abantu base-Afrika baseMelika empeleni basencane amathuba okuthola ukuthi banesifo senhliziyo kunabamhlophe.
Lokhu kungase kubhekisele kwesinye sezizathu ezibangelwa ukungalingani.
Imibono Ngokuphathelene Nokungafani
Ososayensi abaqiniseki ngokuphelele ukuthi kungani ezinye izizwe zikhona engozini ephakeme yezifo zenhliziyo, kodwa ziqinisekile ukuthi kokubili izakhi zofuzo nokuphila zidlala indima.
Izakhi zofuzo zakho zithonya indlela ukudla kwakho kusetshenziselwa ngayo umzimba nokuthi umzimba wakho ukhiqiza kangakanani i-cholesterol.
I-cholesterol ayitholakali nje ekudleni; isibindi sakho empeleni sakha cishe amaphesenti angu-75 wegazi lakho le-cholesterol. Ukwenza izakhi zakho zofuzo kungathonya ukuthi ukhiqizwa kangakanani i-cholesterol nokuthi yikuphi isilinganiso sakho se-LDL kuya ku-HDL.
Abacwaningi basondeza ama-genes okungenzeka abe imbangela ye-cholesterol ephezulu, ukucindezelwa kwegazi eliphezulu nezinye izifo zesifo senhliziyo, kodwa azikho okwamanje.
Kodwa-ke, ezinye izici zingase zenze ingozi ye-Afrika yaseMelika isengozini yezifo zenhliziyo. Ukukhuluphala, esinye sezibikezelo ezibaluleke kakhulu zesifo senhliziyo nesifo senhliziyo isakazeke kakhulu phakathi kwama-Afrika aseMelika. Ngokusho kwamaCenter for Disease Control, cishe amaphesenti angama-48 wabantu abamnyama babhekwa njengabakhulu kakhulu ngo-2012.
Umbiko we-CDC ofanayo wathola ukuthi amaphesenti angu-48.7 ase-Afrika aseMelika ayenezici ezimbili noma ezingaphezu kwengozi yesifo senhliziyo; uma kuqhathaniswa namaphesenti angu-35.5 aseCaucasus aseMelika. Izinto eziyingozi ezifundwayo zazibandakanya ukuxilongwa kwesifo sikashukela , imikhuba yokubhema, indlela yokuphila ngokweqile, ukukhuluphala, umfutho wegazi ophakeme kanye ne- cholesterol ephezulu .
Futhi, izibalo ezivela eHhovisi le-Minority Health zibonisa ukungalingani kwezempilo ezibhedlela zase-US. Ucwaningo lubonisa ukuthi abantu base-Afrika baseMelika basebancane kakhulu ukuthola i-aspirin lapho befika esibhedlela ngezimpawu zokuhlasela inhliziyo, bathole i-aspirin uma bededelwa futhi bathola i- beta-blocker lapho befika nezimpawu zokuhlasela inhliziyo.
Nakuba umehluko kuncane, amaphuzu ambalwa amaphesenti kuphela, lezi zibalo zingase zimelele inkinga enkulu.
Ukuvimbela: Ukunciphisa Ingozi Ye-Cholesterol Nezifo Zezinhliziyo
Kubalulekile ukuthatha imithwalo yemfanelo yakho ngenxa yezifo zakho zempilo yengqondo. UMnyango wezeMpilo wezeMpilo waseMelika unikeze amathiphu alandelayo wokunciphisa i-cholesterol nenengozi yomzimba:
- Yeka ukubhema
- Finyelela futhi ugcine isisindo esinempilo
- Gxila ekudleni okungenani ama-five servings of izithelo nemifino nsuku zonke
- Dlulisa ukudla okubomvu ngokuya inkukhu kanye ne-turkey
- Qala ukwenza imizuzu engu-30 yokuzivocavoca isimiso nsuku zonke
Kubalulekile ukuxhumana nodokotela wakho.
Ochwepheshe batusa ukuthi amadoda angaphezu kweminyaka engama-35 kanye nabesifazane abangaphezu kweminyaka engu-45 banokuhlolwa kwe-cholesterol njalo eminyakeni emihlanu uma bengenayo ingozi yokwanda kwenhliziyo ne-cholesterol ephezulu. Uma umuntu enengozi eyengeziwe, ukuhlolwa kwonyaka kunconywa.
Uma i-cholesterol yakho isiphezulu, udokotela wakho angaluleka izinguquko zokuphila futhi mhlawumbe imithi yokusiza amazinga e-cholesterol aphansi futhi ingozi yenhliziyo yonke.
