¿Es realmente bueno tener índices bajos de colesterol?
Todos hemos oído hablar sobre los peligros del colesterol, sobre ese colesterol «malo» que debemos mirar con cuidado cada vez que nos hacemos una analítica. Puede que no comprendamos el porqué, pero seguimos buscando tener cada vez índices más bajos como si eso fuera el marcador supremo de una salud impecable. Y los médicos siguen recetando pastillas «milagrosas» para ponerlos en las horquillas establecidas. Sin incluso ser conscientes de que la mayoría de las veces esto puede ser perjudicial. ¿Es verdaderamente el colesterol el causante de todos los males con los que se le relaciona?
El colesterol es una molécula indispensable para la vida, para la integridad estructural de nuestras membranas celulares y que, además, interviene en multitud de procesos de nuestro organismo y ayuda a nuestro crecimiento y desarrollo. ¿Por qué, entonces, insistimos en demonizar una molécula tan esencial para la vida?
En este libro, Juan Bola expone multitud de estudios y datos para acabar con las falsas creencias que rodean al colesterol, y explica cuáles son las verdaderas causas de las enfermedades cardiovasculares y cómo podemos minimizar su riesgo.
Unas páginas repletas de evidencia científica para conocer en profundidad los mecanismos lipídicos de nuestro cuerpo y descubrir cómo, a través de una dieta evolutivamente correcta y unos buenos hábitos, podemos potenciar nuestra salud cardiovascular.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Is having low cholesterol levels really a good thing?
We've all heard about the dangers of cholesterol--the "bad" cholesterol we're told to monitor every time we get bloodwork done. We may not understand why, but we keep chasing lower numbers as if they were the ultimate marker of perfect health. And doctors keep prescribing "miracle" pills to get those numbers within range, often without realizing that, in many cases, this could be harmful. Is cholesterol really responsible for all the problems it's blamed for?
Cholesterol is a molecule essential for life, crucial for the structural integrity of our cell membranes and involved in countless bodily functions that support growth and development. So why are we so quick to demonize something so vital?
In this book, Juan Bola presents a wealth of studies and data to dismantle the misconceptions surrounding cholesterol and explains the true causes of cardiovascular disease and how we can reduce our risk.
A compelling, science-backed exploration of lipid mechanisms in the body--and how, through an evolutionarily sound diet and healthy habits, we can enhance our cardiovascular well-being.
