〔健康頻道/綜合報導〕台灣每4人就有1人罹患高血脂,換算近500萬人罹病。營養師科提斯表示,20歲以上國人約有3成血脂異常,長期血脂偏高恐增加冠心病、中風等慢性疾病風險。想改善血脂,可用植物性蛋白質取代部分動物性蛋白質,例如:以豆腐、毛豆、豆漿取代排骨、雞排或雞胸肉,有助降低食物中脂肪吸收、膽酸回收、增加脂肪氧化與生成、減少膽固醇合成,進而改善血脂。
植物性蛋白改善血脂4作用
科提斯於臉書粉專發文表示,血脂異常並非無法改善,飲食就是重要一環。日常飲食策略上,利用植物性蛋白質取代部分動物性蛋白,其實就是一個簡單小技巧。國民飲食指南也建議,蛋白質食物優先選擇順序為:豆>魚>蛋>肉,這是因為植物性蛋白質有利維持正常血脂,其背後主要科學機制包括以下4項:
請繼續往下閱讀...
●降低食物脂肪吸收:當植物性蛋白質跟脂肪一起吃下肚,因為植物蛋白的乳化及凝膠化特性會將脂肪包覆,使得脂肪酶無法作用,因而降低脂肪吸收
●降低膽酸回收:膽酸是肝臟利用膽固醇製造而成,當脂肪吃下肚時,膽囊會排出膽酸到腸道,幫助脂肪吸收。95%進到腸道的膽酸會被回收利用,但攝取植物性蛋白會降低膽酸的回收,肝臟只好再拿膽固醇來合成、補充,因此有助降低膽固醇含量。
●減少膽固醇合成:植物蛋白消化後產生的胜肽,可抑制肝臟膽固醇合成限速酶(HMG-CoA 還原酶),因而降低膽固醇的合成。此外,還能上調肝臟LDL受體(LDLR),加速清除血液中的LDL-C,就是俗稱的壞膽固醇。
●增加脂肪氧化、降低脂肪生成:攝取植物性蛋白質食物,可以透過腸道影響肝臟,進而改善血脂。因為植物性蛋白質食物通常有較多膳食纖維,會被腸道菌發酵產生短鏈脂肪酸(SCFAs),最終促進脂肪酸β氧化及降低脂肪合成。
日常飲食取代部分肉類要訣
科提斯指出,實際執行並不困難,建議可將部分動物性蛋白質換成植物性蛋白質,例如:午餐的排骨換成豆腐、消夜的雞排換成毛豆、運動後原本吃雞胸肉改喝豆漿,均有助增加植物性蛋白質攝取。
科提斯提醒,血脂異常的診斷率大約只有50%,代表許多人可能不知道自己血脂已出現異常,因此仍應定期接受健康檢查。若已發現血脂異常,除了以植物性蛋白質取代部分動物性蛋白質,也應減少脂肪、糖及酒精攝取,搭配規律運動及體重控制;尤其規律運動有助提升好的膽固醇,減重5%也有改善血脂效果,均是逆轉血脂的好方式。

Director of Hong Yongxiang Clinic pointed out that Mr. Chen, a patient with chronic renal failure, drank coffee with sugar and creamer every day, which led to high blood phosphorus and declining kidney function. However, he emphasized that coffee itself does not damage the kidneys, and the key is how he drinks it. It is recommended to choose sugar-free black coffee, avoid creamer and refined sugar, and mix it with an appropriate amount of extra cold-pressed virgin olive oil at high speed to reduce health burden and protect the kidneys.

A research team from Xiangya Hospital of Central South University in China analyzed the data of more than 458,000 adults in the British Biobank and found that those with pre-sarcopenia and sarcopenia have an increased risk of infection, especially with respiratory infections and sepsis. The study points out that regular strength training can help maintain muscle health, but it cannot prove that muscle loss directly causes an increase in infections.

If you have unexplained severe fatigue, memory loss, and muscle aches that last for more than six months, and there are no abnormalities in hospital examinations, you may be suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome. Chen Min, an expert from the Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, suggested systematic conditioning of the five internal organs, qi and blood, through TCM syndrome differentiation and lifestyle adjustment.

The article points out that controlling blood lipids requires not only reducing fat intake, but also paying attention to the endogenous fat converted from polished rice and white flour. The elderly should choose oils rich in monounsaturated fatty acids and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as olive oil, tea seed oil, etc., eat egg yolks in moderation to obtain the benefits of lecithin, and replace some refined white rice noodles with whole grains such as oats and buckwheat to increase soluble dietary fiber to absorb cholesterol and promote excretion.

The Kaohsiung Hunei Digital Opportunity Center partnered with the Gongguan Community to launch a cloud-based health assessment tool, helping seniors measure and archive their blood pressure and heart rate daily in the cloud for easy medical reference and family sharing, improving healthcare quality for the elderly, with plans to expand to more communities.

Public health physician Cai Bingjian cited an interim analysis in the magazine "Food & Function" and pointed out that in the trial of Mediterranean diet plus probiotics, the metabolite changes of Spanish elderly participants showed an increase in the flexibility of energy switching, and some metabolites were related to cognitive scores. However, the study was only a correlation analysis and could not claim to prevent dementia.
