Bad news about good cholesterol
The fat is in the fire as a latest study claims that 'good' cholesterol, the HDL component, is not that good after all. It's better than LDL, the 'bad' cholesterol, but its goodness may be overrated.
“糟了!”。最新一项研究声称,所谓“有益”胆固醇(即高密度脂蛋白)并非传说中的那样好。虽然它比低密度脂蛋白要好一些,但它的好处被高估了。
If you've been on medication to boost HDL and reduce your LDL load, don't bother.
如果你正在喝药调理,以增高体内的高密度脂蛋白而减少低密度脂蛋白,我们建议您别折腾了。
While we await the final verdict, it's best that we work on minimizing LDL and let HDL take care of itself, without us having to resort to drug therapy.
当我们在等待最终结果出炉时,我们最好只努力减少低密度脂蛋白,而让高密度脂蛋白“顺其自然”吧。
Wouldn't you love being back in the days when cholesterol, good, bad, and ugly, was not known, and food could be enjoyed without these spoilsports.
哎,很怀念那些对胆固醇一无所知的日子,不管它是好的、不好的还是万恶的,因为我们可以无忧无虑地享受美食的乐趣。
