title: [Diet and dyslipidemia].
abstract: In this article recommendations for dyslipidemias are illustrated by practical dietary recommendations for an individual patient with combined hyperlipidemia. Recommendations in hypercholesterolemia above all consist in the replacement of saturated by unsaturated forty acids thus reducing automatically cholesterol, too. In hypertriglyceridemias reduction of body weight should often be combined with quantitative control of alcohol and simple carbohydrates. A list of foods to be chosen or to be avoided is provided.
