IV. Mixed. The look is bright and fat in some regions, for example, called T-zone (forehead, nose and chin), while cheeks and around the eyes are a little dry, in this type of skin pores they become enlarged and there is a tendency to black spots.

Fat and Cholesterol

To have a healthy body is important in the diet containing fat and cholesterol, because they fulfill important functions in the body. However, when both are present in excess health-threatening.

Nutritionists recommend a diet containing 10 and 15% protein, 55% carbohydrate and 35% fat. The latter are responsible for absorbing some vitamins, as well as store and deliver the energy the body needs, among other functions.

However, the same specialists consider two types of fats: saturated calls, found in red meat and most dairy products, and unsaturated fats, found in vegetable oils, avocado, chicken, fish and nuts, among other foods.

The big difference between the two is that the former favors the accumulation of bad cholesterol (LDL by its acronym in English) on the walls of the arteries, thereby limiting the free flow of blood may be that the origin of heart disease such as heart. In contrast, unsaturated fats are another type of cholesterol, known as "good" (HDL), which helps to eliminate that which is deposited in the arteries. So that excessive consumption of saturated fat is one factor that triggers the so-called hypercholesterolemia, i.e., the excess cholesterol in the blood.

Man accumulates fat in the back of the neck, shoulders, back, face, upper trunk and abdomen and, over time, across the belly. In turn, the woman is capable of storing in belly, hips, thighs and breasts, and with the passage of time on his chin, neck and buttocks. Finally, children are located in pubis, hips, arms, cheeks and backs of hands and feet.

What is cholesterol?
This compound is made by fatty liver, and its main function is to protect the membranes of cells throughout the body. To reach them as a means of transport used veins and arteries, which moves in the form of packages called lipoproteins. The risk of increasing the amount of cholesterol in the blood begins when we eat foods that contain excessively, especially beef, pork, eggs and some dairy products.

However, when the amount of cholesterol is high tends to stick to the walls of the arteries become narrow, so blood flow is restricted and causes fewer arrive in organs like the brain. If irrigation is insufficient in the heart, promotes pain, angina pectoris and heart attack in extreme cases.

Scientific studies indicate that one in every 10 have hypercholesterolemia. This condition does not produce noticeable symptoms, and in most cases those living with it are unaware of its presence when it has generated a serious problem.

So one of the best ways to care for our health is through food. Make sure it is balanced in minerals, vitamins and carbohydrates, and you'll be fat and cholesterol.
