Reduce fat (lipid) according to BMI, fat should only account for 15-20% of total energy with the following ratio:
Saturated fat accounts for 1/3 of total fat 1/3 is unsaturated fatty acids many double bonds, the remaining 1/3 is unsaturated fatty acids with one double bond. Should use vegetable oil instead of fat and should eat oily seeds such as sesame, peanuts, chestnuts, pumpkin seeds to provide polyunsaturated fatty acids with many omega-3 and omega-6 double bonds. If possible, add natural fish oil because it contains many unsaturated fatty acids.
Eliminate foods high in saturated fatty acids such as fat, butter, meat broth. Reduce cholesterol intake to less than 250mg/day by not eating foods high in cholesterol such as: brain, beef oval, pork oval, pork liver, chicken liver. Egg yolk has a lot of cholesterol, but at the same time has a lot of lecithin (a substance that regulates cholesterol metabolism in the body), so it is not necessary to completely abstain from eggs, but only eat eggs 1-2 times a week, each time. one fruit.

To reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, consume at least 25g of soybeans/day in any form. However, the amount of protein should not increase too much compared to normal, it will lead to other metabolic disorders, should only eat about 1/6 (15%) more than normal.
Increase in polyunsaturated fatty acids with many double bonds: many polyunsaturated fatty acids with the incidence of atherosclerosis have clearly shown the effect of lowering blood cholesterol. The positive role of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids in lowering blood cholesterol and preventing cardiovascular diseases. Fish, fish oil rich in Omega-3 fatty acids such as EPA (Eicosapentaenoic), DHA (Docosahessaenoic), and vegetable oils rich in Omega-6 fatty acids not only lower cholesterol but also have a good effect to prevent arrhythmias. heart, blood clots and contribute to the regulation of blood pressure.
