National Lipid Day 2024
 |
The day began under the auspices of Kunjan Singh and Sanjay Suri on behalf of Zydus Cadila aka Zydus Lifesciences Limited to spread awareness about the disease. May 10 was chosen as the day on which National Lipid Day is to be observed annually.
Dyslipidemia is a metabolic disorder. It is characterized by abnormally high or low amounts of any or all lipids. Those elements of the body which constitute lipids in the blood include:
fats triglycerides cholesterol phospholipids lipoproteinsDyslipidemia is a risk factor for the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases which include:
coronary artery disease cerebrovascular disease peripheral artery diseaseMost dyslipidemias are hyperlipidemias, which means the presence of too much rather than too little however the affectation does go both ways on the scale of abnormality.
I too was suffering from too high triglyceride and cholesterol levels. I am now proud to say that after years of sky high readings mine are now normal. I take two little pills toward this end and after a protracted interval of treatment they have made all the difference.
Good health to you.
