Features: Patients often ask doctors various questions and hope for detailed answers, but due to time constraints, doctors cannot explain everything one by one. "The Family Doctor Series" addresses the concerns of patients and their families, helping them understand diseases correctly, cooperate with doctors in treatment, and recover as soon as possible. Some of the doctor's advice and recommendations are of practical help for people's daily disease prevention and health care. Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and stroke. The further development of hyperlipidemia leads to various serious diseases, which have become the leading causes of death and disability in most countries, including China, and have attracted widespread attention from society. With the improvement of living standards, people are increasingly concerned about their quality of life and need to understand health-related knowledge. It has become an urgent task for medical workers today to popularize knowledge about blood lipids as soon as possible. This book is written to meet this need. Combining the authors' many years of clinical experience and incorporating new viewpoints and theories on blood lipids from both domestic and international sources, the book presents medical knowledge in an easy-to-understand language with numerous illustrations, making it intuitive, clear, and accessible. It aims to achieve a balance between text and visuals, allowing those with limited medical knowledge but a certain level of cultural literacy to benefit specifically. The book provides a detailed introduction to the hazards, basic knowledge, causes, and prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia, especially using extensive content to explain prevention and treatment methods from aspects such as diet, lifestyle, and medication, to the greatest extent possible to meet people's needs for preventing and treating hyperlipidemia.
