Can Exercise Lower Your Blood Cholesterol?

[Dr.Ayman]

Being physically active can help lower your cholesterol level, whether it involves everyday activities like cleaning or gardening or a structured exercise program. Exercise helps lower cholesterol levels several ways:

Exercise increases the amount of HDL cholesterol (the good kind of cholesterol) in your blood, while reducing the amount of LDL cholesterol (the bad, artery-clogging kind of cholesterol).

Exercise promotes weight loss and weight control.

When you exercise, you tone up your whole body's circulation, helping to clear away clots in the blood vessels and making the heart a stronger, more efficient pump

I want to ask Dr:Ayman a question. (I've lost about 15 kg in 3 months by diet and excersise.and my hair is falling in a crazy way now but I went to the Dr and he gave me iron tablets and hair spray. but the proplem is that I'm now feeling pulses in my abdomen while I'm lying down and sometimes while I'm sitting which disturb me. IS THAT A SERIOUS THING OR THAT IS NORMAL? although I'm not that thin but I'm now in the normal range.And I'm thinking to loose additional weight till I achieve a perfect body so what is ur advice to me.وعذرا على الاطاله.

no body can advise you to do any thing with out taking full history & clinical examination belive me & if someone did he is not right .

Hi everyone , i love this kind of discussion

Guys , while we are still little doctors , but we still can tell .
everyone can comment and philosophize freely on his level , isn't it ?

Dr haboba ,
I will answer u on my previous background of metabolism and the digestive system ,
U said that your hair was falling okay ?
that is certainly because the diet was serious
that u was even losing some important vitamins
or may may be the diet wasn't targeting specifically fatty tissue .
so the consideration of losing that 15 kg is efficient if it was fat
otherwise , all that 15 will return quickly
that is one point ;)

as long as that pulse is not accompanied by pain or swelling
I think INSH2ALLA it is not serious
but u have to remmember that u really have to eat alot of fibers
espically after this period of diet
for example , why dont u have apple and half for supper
belive me it will turn ur digestion on and will relieve many digestive disturbances could occur

and thank u for ur Q and u r very welcome at my clinic any time :D

[haboba]

THANK u Dr reda for the advice and you know what I think that the diet was efficient cause my weight is stable now since I left the diet but I'm now excersicing regularly and I'm taking iron and vitamin tablet and I hope that every thing is ok:) .
THANK YOU EVERYBODY FOR DISCUSSING MY CASE.AND WHAT I REALLY HOPE THAT I FIND DOCTORS THAT DISCUSS WITH ME THE HISTORY THAT I TAKE FROM THE PATIENTS. AND GOOD LUCK TO EVERY ONE.
