Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Hello! Fats ingested in food are digested and absorbed by the human body and enter the bloodstream, forming chylomicrons. At this time, the collected blood is called "chylous blood" because the plasma part appears cloudy and milky. Transfusing chylous blood not only increases the incidence of transfusion reactions in recipients but also significantly increases the likelihood of patients with high blood lipid levels developing coronary heart disease, arteriosclerosis, hypertension, cerebral hemorrhage, and gallstones.
