Uzizwa ucindezeleke ngempela? Kungase kungabi nje ama-blues asebusika akwehlisela phansi. (Futhi, i-BTW, Ngenxa yokuthi Ucindezelekile Ebusika Akusho Ukuthi UNODABUKILE.) Kunalokho, bheka ukudla kwakho futhi uqiniseke ukuthi uthola amafutha anele. Yebo, ngokocwaningo olusha olushicilelwe ku Ijenali yePsychiatry & Neuroscience, abantu abanamazinga aphansi e-cholesterol egazini basengozini enkulu yokucindezeleka okukhulu ngisho nokuzibulala.

Ngenkathi benza ukuhlaziya kwemeta yezifundo ezingama-65 futhi bebheka idatha evela kubantu abangaphezu kwengxenye yesigidi, abacwaningi bathola ukuhlobana okuqinile phakathi kokufundwa kwe-cholesterol ephansi kanye nokuzibulala. Ngokuqondile, abantu abanamazinga aphansi kakhulu e-cholesterol babenengozi ephakeme ngamaphesenti ayi-112 yemicabango yokuzibulala, amaphesenti ayi-123 engcupheni ephakeme yokuzama ukuzibulala, kanye namaphesenti angama-85 engcupheni ephakeme yokuzibulala. Lokhu kwakuyiqiniso ikakhulukazi kubantu abangaphansi kweminyaka engama-40 ubudala. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, abantu abanokufundwa okuphezulu kwe-cholesterol, babenobungozi obuphansi kakhulu bokuthambekela kokuzibulala.

Kepha linda, akufanele yini kube ne-cholesterol ephansi kuhle kwakho? Asitshelwanga yini sonke ukuthi sigweme i-cholesterol ephezulu ngazo zonke izindlela?

Ucwaningo lwakamuva nge-cholesterol lubonisa ukuthi le ndaba iyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu kunalokho ebesikukholelwa esikhathini esidlule. Okokuqala, ososayensi abaningi manje bayabuza ukuthi ngabe kukhona ukuxhumana okuqondile phakathi kwe-cholesterol ephezulu nesifo senhliziyo. Izifundo ezibuyela emuva ngaphezulu kweminyaka engamashumi amabili, njengalezi ezishicilelwe ku- Ijenali ye-American Medical Association, bonisa ukuthi ayinyusi ingozi yokufa. Olunye ucwaningo lukhombisile ukuthi ezinye izinhlobo ze-cholesterol zinganikeza nezinzuzo zezempilo. Ngenxa yalezi zifundo nolunye ucwaningo olusafufusa, uhulumeni wase-US wanquma ngonyaka odlule ukususa i-cholesterol “njengesakhamzimba esikhathazayo” eziqondisweni zayo ezisemthethweni.

Kepha ngoba phezulu icholesterol ayiyimbi kangako kuwe njengoba abantu bake bacabanga ukuthi ayiphenduli umbuzo wokuthi kungani phansi I-cholesterol ingaba yinkinga. Kungakho ifayili le- I-Psychiatry neNeuroscience ukutadisha kubaluleke kakhulu. Izibalo, nakuba zidabukisa ngendlela emangalisayo, zinganikeza ososayensi umkhondo obalulekile wokuthi yini ebangela ukucindezeleka okukhulu nokuthambekela kokuzibulala.

Omunye umbono uthi ubuchopho budinga amafutha ukuze usebenze kahle. Ingqondo yomuntu icishe ibe ngamaphesenti angama-60 amafutha, kanti amaphesenti angama-25 alokho akhiwe yi-cholesterol. Ama-acid abalulekile ngakho-ke ayadingeka kukho kokubili ukusinda nenjabulo. Kepha njengoba imizimba yethu ingenakukwazi ukuyenza, kufanele siyithole ekudleni okunothe ngamafutha aphilile, njengezinhlanzi, inyama enotshani, ubisi lonke, amaqanda namantongomane. Futhi kubonakala kusebenza ngokusebenza: Ukuthola okwanele kwalokhu kudla kuye kwaxhunyaniswa namazinga aphansi okucindezeleka, ukukhathazeka, nesifo sengqondo. (Kuyaphawuleka, nokho, ukuthi ukudla okusindayo emafutheni agcwele kukhonjisiwe imbangela ukucindezeleka.)

Umangele? Nathi futhi. Kepha umyalezo wokuthatha akufanele ukuthuse: Yidla izinhlobo eziningi zokudla okunempilo, okuphelele ukuze uzizwe ungcono kakhulu. Futhi inqobo nje uma zingenziwanga ngomuntu noma zicutshungulwa kakhulu, ungakhathazeki ngokudla amanoni amaningi. Kungakusiza uzizwe kangcono.
