South Korea, where one in four adults suffer from cholesterol problems, is now in a war against cholesterol.

The cholesterol level is the amount of cholesterol in the blood. If the total cholesterol level is less than 200mg/dL, LDL cholesterol level is less than 130mg/dL, triglyceride level is less than 150mg/dL, and HDL cholesterol level is more than 40mg/dL, the diagnosis is appropriate.

If cholesterol levels are not managed, the risk of dyslipidemia, a higher concept of hyperlipidemia, increases. Dyslipidemia causes high blood pressure and diabetes, which are metabolic syndrome, and can even lead to complications such as acute myocardial infarction and stroke. However, until complications occur, the body does not have any symptoms, so it is likely to be exposed to risk. In particular, there are people who are genetically difficult to manage cholesterol levels by diet alone, so caution is required.




Exercise can also be effective in managing cholesterol. EBS 'Precious Body - Two Weeks Challenge' aired on the 14th! In addition to diet, 'Dropping Cholesterol', a method to help manage cholesterol through exercise was introduced, drawing attention.

The exercise proposed by exercise therapist Moon Kyo-hoon in the broadcast is largely divided into three stages: warm-up exercise, abdominal and systemic activation exercise, and free and oxygen-free exercise.

First of all, if you suddenly increase the intensity of your exercise, you have to warm up because your blood vessels are not ready. It is recommended to raise your body temperature and soften your joints through jumping in place.
