Diet Therapy Treatment of The Disease Through Diet
Dietary treatment of hypercholesterolemia involves, if overweight or obese, achieving a healthy weight through diet adequacy of the characteristics of the individual.
In the diet and caloric adjustment has been to control the quality of the fat by reducing intake of foods rich in cholesterol and saturated fat further.
Polyunsaturated fat, especially the omega 3 fats found in fish, unlike saturated fat, manifest a protective effect by lowering blood viscosity, thereby reducing the risk of thrombus formation.
Monounsaturated fat, whose main representative is the olive oil, also has a beneficial effect by increasing the good cholesterol (HDL cholesterol) and prevent oxidation of bad cholesterol (LDL).
1200 Calorie Diet and Omega 3
If you are overweight and want to cut, I advise you do not just dieting alone. Diets that involve a low intake of calories than we burn, usually result in complete failure, though the person can lose weight.
When we got to lose fat and muscle weight that the body uses to feed. Returning to gain weight, which occurs in 90% of cases if not changed eating and exercise habits, increased fat but not muscles.
Then at the end, although we are as heavy as we started, we are actually fatter because we have a higher percentage of fat. That is to say we were worse than before (I do not advise it).
If you can change their exercise habits and eating the thing is different. If you 30 minutes of anaerobic exercise, ie weight lifting, strength intervals, etc (your body should be prepared properly before this program) will create muscle to your body while eliminating fat.

Obesity Treatment – Mitochondrial Gene Therapy
Spanish researchers conclude that obesity can be inherited from the mother’s mitochondrial genes. Also of interest in itself, this discovery is a possible action against obesity, if it can regulate the amount of mitochondrial DNA by certain drugs.
Mitochondria are tiny structures inside cells that have the function of supplying energy to them, in fact, provide 90% of the energy they need. Are characterized by their own DNA (mtDNA), distinct from DNA in the nucleus of body cells (nuclear DNA), with which must not be confused.
An important difference between the two DNA’s is that, at least in mammals, nuclear is inherited from both parents, while the mitochondrial inherited only from the mother, because in the moment of fertilization the mitochondria of sperm does not penetrate the egg .
The deficiencies or mutations in mitochondrial DNA can cause disease, sometimes very serious, especially degenerative nerve and muscle cells. It could also be at the origin of certain cases of diabetes, cancer and stroke, for example.
