Understand the Difference Between Cholesterol and Triglycerides to Prevent Stroke Early
Although both are classified as blood lipids, cholesterol and triglycerides have different functions and effects on health.
• Cholesterol plays an important role in the formation of hormones, vitamin D, and cell membranes. However, high LDL levels can cause plaque buildup in the arteries.
• Triglycerides, on the other hand, are the body’s main energy reserve, formed from excess calories. When levels are too high, triglycerides can trigger inflammation and damage to blood vessels, worsening the effects of bad cholesterol.
In other words, high cholesterol tends to block blood flow, while high triglycerides accelerate vessel damage and inflammation. The combination of both significantly increases the risk of stroke.
Therefore, maintaining balanced cholesterol and triglyceride levels is not just about diet—it’s about adopting an overall healthy lifestyle: regular exercise, controlled intake of fats and sugars, and routine monitoring.
For early detection and home monitoring, you can use MulticareIn, a practical solution to measure:
✅ Total Cholesterol
✅ Triglycerides
✅ Blood Glucose
MBG cases in Indonesia reflect that the threat of hazardous chemicals in food remains real. The use of substances such as rhodamine B, metanil yellow, formalin, borax, peroxide, iodine, and nitrite not only violates the law but also endangers public health.
Through integrated food surveillance programs and the application of rapid test kits, it is hoped that the government and the public can work together to establish a safe, healthy, and chemical-free food supply chain.
Preventive measures through education, testing, and law enforcement must continue to be strengthened so that no more poisoning or MBG incidents occur due to unsafe food products.
