The 6 hygiene-dietetic tips of LESCUYER Laboratory

The factors causing an excess of cholesterol are many and for the most part unalterable ... On the other hand, it is possible to act on our diet, without radical change or even deprivation!

To assist you in your micronutritional approach and to facilitate your everyday life, LESCUYER Laboratory advises you to follow these few hygiene-dietetic tips to reinforce the action of Limicol. Do not hesitate to speak to your doctor who will adapt them to your case.





DECREASE THE INTAKE OF FOODS HIGH IN SATURATED FATTY ACIDS

As the number one enemy of your arteries, saturated fats are present mainly in foods of animal origin such as fat dairy products such as cheeses, whole fresh cream, butter, fat meats (pâté, rillettes, sausage ...) Red meats (lamb, mutton, pork, beef) and certain specific pieces (rib steaks, ribs, ribs, chines ...).

Some vegetable fats are also to be avoided. Be sure to restrict products whose ingredient list includes coconut or palm oils (identified as hydrogenated fats).

PROMOTE THE SUPPLY OF UNSATURATED FATTY ACIDS

These fatty acids are preferred daily in your diet. When combined, they improve your lipid profile by decreasing LDL-cholesterol ("bad cholesterol") and increasing HDL-cholesterol ("good cholesterol").

These include omega-3 fatty acids (rapeseed oil, soybean oil, nuts, oily fish, etc.), omega 6 oils (walnut oils, wheat germ, grape seed, almonds, walnuts, etc.) (Olive oil, rapeseed, hazelnut ...).

FOCUS ON FOOD SOURCES OF FIBER

An intake of 30 g of fiber per day is recommended in adults. However, on average, the intakes observed among the French population are of the order of 10 to 15 g per day. Limit the refined products and prefer unprocessed foodstuffs such as fresh fruits and vegetables, pulses, whole grains and derived cereal products (bread, pasta, rice ...).

RAISE YOUR ANTIOXIDANT STATUS

In order to optimally protect the cells of your vessels, opt for foods rich in major antioxidant substances like vitamin E (olive oil, rapeseed ...), vitamin C (citrus fruits, red fruits, kiwis, cabbages ...) and Beta-carotene (colored fruits and vegetables, etc.). By combining them in your diet, you increase their synergy of action and contribute strongly to limit the oxidation of blood cholesterol.

MONITOR YOUR SALT INTAKE

Ensure your sodium intake (2000 mg maximum per day) in order to preserve your blood pressure. Thus, you maintain the health of your arteries by limiting the deleterious effects of cholesterol. Start by decreasing your intake of table salt and derivatives (broth cubes ...) not to mention deli meats, preserves and products prepared commercially.

Enhance the taste of your dishes otherwise, by varying the spices, avocados or other herbs and realize your dishes yourself, it is the best method to control your intake!

ADOPT SIMPLE CULINARY TECHNIQUES

Cooking should be synonymous with taste, simplicity and friendliness. The grill or plancha can reduce the fat content in the food. Make traditional recipes by replacing the butter with vegetable oils of good nutritional value (olive oils, grape seeds ...).

For sauces, bind with starch (e.g. corn) diluted cold or make a "vegetable red" by always replacing the butter. Finally, opt for vegetable cream (soya-based) to bring smoothness to your soups, sauces and desserts while limiting your intake of fats.
