Chronic disease health management

Statistics show that people in China are taller and fatter than they were five years ago. Compared with 20 15, the prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cancer also increased. These are chronic diseases that are harmful to health, so the health management of chronic diseases is becoming more and more important. However, if you want to know how to carry out the health management of chronic diseases, you must first know what chronic diseases are and how to judge that you have chronic diseases, and then you can find ways to carry out health management.

The definition of chronic disease refers to the general term for diseases that do not constitute infection and form morphological damage after long-term accumulation. This disease can be divided into two types, one is the disease that has caused substantial damage, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, chronic respiratory diseases and so on. The other is metabolic diseases, such as hyperglycemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperuricemia. It belongs to metabolic diseases. At the beginning of the disease, I didn't feel anything. Take hyperglycemia as an example. Hyperglycemia has no typical symptoms most of the time, but once symptoms appear, it may already be a serious state such as diabetes.

So how should we manage the health of chronic diseases? First of all, we should adjust our unhealthy living habits, such as smoking, drinking, overeating and staying up late, which are the main causes of chronic diseases. In addition, for the metabolic disease of hyperglycemia, it is difficult for us to judge whether we are in a state of hyperglycemia, and we must use instruments to detect it. Therefore, it is very important to have a good home blood glucose meter, just like the Sannuo stability+blood glucose meter I am using now. This old buddy has been with me for two years and has never broken the chain, so it is relatively worry-free to use.
