In recent years, the incidence of vascular diseases is very high. At present, the number of cardiovascular patients in China is as high as 330 million. And many vascular diseases are inseparable from vascular blockage.
Blood vessels are like water pipes. Once blocked, oxygen and nutrients carried by blood cannot be transported to various organs, and the body will go on strike. Once some important functions, such as brain activity, stop, it may lead to headache, syncope and even threaten life and health.
Blood vessels will be blocked, not for no reason, and many times it is caused by man. So, what misconduct will add to the blood vessels? How to protect blood vessel health?
1, can't keep your mouth shut
Diets with high calorie, high cholesterol and high saturated fatty acids will deposit more lipids and cholesterol in blood vessels, leading to the appearance of vascular plaques, thickening and hardening blood vessels, aggravating calcification, further developing into atherosclerosis, and blood vessels are easy to block.
2. Can't walk.
Many people who can't control their mouths often can't open their legs. Exercise helps the body to consume excess calories and promote blood circulation.
Eating more and exercising less will only aggravate the deposition of garbage in blood vessels, lead to serious blockage of blood vessels and may also lead to various vascular diseases.
Step 3 Stay up late for a long time
Staying up late is a common problem of modern people. Although I know that staying up late is harmful to my health, many people often become "night owls" because of school, work and other factors. But it is not recommended to stay up late for a long time, because it will cause certain damage to blood vessel health.
When people stay up late, the sympathetic nerve will be excited, and the secretion of adrenaline and norepinephrine will increase, leading to vasoconstriction, spasm, slow blood flow and thickening of blood, which is easy to cause blood vessel blockage. If mental stress is added, the degree of sympathetic nerve excitation will be higher, which will lead to the aggravation of vascular diseases.
4, smoke does not leave your hand
Smoking will not only increase the prevalence of lung cancer, but also damage blood vessel health.
Nicotine, tar and other toxic components in tobacco can cause intimal hyperplasia and hypertrophy, decrease vascular elasticity and increase blood viscosity, thus forming thrombus and blocking blood vessels.
When blood vessels in different parts are blocked, symptoms will be different.
1, if it is cerebrovascular occlusion, the patient may have dizziness, headache, fatigue, language disorder, etc.
2. If it is cardiovascular blockage, chest tightness, asthma, palpitation, angina pectoris and other manifestations may occur;
3. If the artery of the upper limb is blocked, the blood supply channel of the brain will be blocked, so it will also show dizziness, instability and other signals similar to cerebral vascular blockage;
4. Obstruction of lower extremity arteries, which mostly occurs in patients with diabetes, will cause numbness, chills and fatigue in hands and feet, and in severe cases will lead to tissue necrosis, and then paralysis and amputation.
1, shut up and take your legs. It is necessary to put an end to the diet with high fat, high cholesterol and high calorie, and replace it with the healthy eating principle of "scientific diet and balanced diet", eat more healthy foods such as vegetables and fruits, and ensure adequate drinking water every day.
At the same time, it is necessary to make the body move, choose appropriate sports according to its own situation, make a reasonable exercise plan, and exercise alternately with oxygen and anaerobic, which not only exercises the body but also protects blood vessel health.
There is no doubt that smoking is harmful to health, so protecting blood vessel health and quitting smoking must be put on the agenda.
Those who are addicted to cigarettes and are difficult to give up may consider seeking medical help to quit smoking effectively through drug methods. While quitting smoking, we should also pay attention to staying away from second-hand smoke.
3, regular work and rest, quit the bad habit of staying up late, ensure 8 hours of adequate sleep every day, so that the body can get enough rest time for self-repair.
If excessive mental stress leads to insomnia, you can consult a professional doctor when necessary and improve insomnia through physical therapy, drug therapy, psychological and behavioral intervention and other scientific methods.
4. Middle-aged and elderly people are at high risk of vascular diseases, so it is recommended to have regular physical examination and screening; In addition, it is necessary for people with obesity, bad living habits, high mental stress, family history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and basic diseases to have regular physical examination.
The blood circulation network of the body is composed of blood vessels. Once there is a problem with blood vessel health, such as blood vessel blockage, it is a great hidden danger to life and health. Therefore, it is urgent to protect the health of blood vessels, and it is recommended to start now!
