A food for preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
1, avocado
When making salad, you might as well add some avocados to your diet and supplement some high-quality fats that are beneficial to heart health. The high-quality fat mentioned here is the fat containing monounsaturated fatty acids, which can help reduce the content of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol * * * * "bad" cholesterol and increase the content of high-density protein cholesterol * * * * "good" cholesterol. Eating avocados can make you eat a variety of carotenoids at the same time, especially β -carotene and lycopene, which plays a vital role in health.
2. Berries
Whether blueberry, blackberry or strawberry, as long as you like to eat them, they all contain anti-inflammatory ingredients, which can reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer and benefit cardiovascular health.
Step 3: beans
Lentils, chickpeas, black beans and kidney beans all contain a lot of fiber, and are also rich in omega -3 fatty acids, calcium and soluble fiber.
4. Olive oil
Olive oil contains the highest unsaturated fatty acids in all edible oils, which can effectively reduce the content of "bad" cholesterol in the body, thus reducing the risk of heart disease. The study found that Crete, living in Greece, contains a lot of cholesterol, but few people die of heart disease because they eat olive oil rich in "good" fat for a long time. Try to choose super virgin oil, because the minimum processing procedures ensure that nutrition will not be excessively lost.
5. Salmon
Because it contains a lot of omega -3 fatty acids, salmon can effectively lower blood pressure and blood viscosity. Two meals a week can reduce the probability of death from a heart attack by one third. Salmon also contains a substance called astaxanthin, which is a powerful antioxidant.
6.nuts
Nuts such as walnuts, cashews and almonds all contain a lot of omega-3 fatty acids and units and polyunsaturated fats. While eating, you can also eat dietary fiber. Like olive oil, nuts contain a lot of "good" fat.
7.spinach
Spinach contains lutein, folic acid, potassium and fiber, which can help keep the heart healthy. In fact, as long as you eat more vegetables, it has a good cardiotonic effect on your heart. The study found that people who eat two and a half servings of vegetables a day have a 25% lower risk of heart disease than those who don't eat vegetables.
Complications of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
*** 1*** Most patients with cerebral hernia and cerebrovascular disease died in the acute stage, mostly due to massive hemorrhage, displacement or destruction of the midline structure of the brain, total brain edema, cerebral hernia formation, brain stem extrusion and displacement, and life-threatening center.
It is reported in China that 44.8 ~ 50. 1 person died of cerebral hemorrhage complicated with cerebral hernia. Therefore, timely and effective reduction of intracranial pressure, reduction of brain edema and prevention of cerebral hernia are the key measures for the success or failure of treatment. When the patient has the following conditions: ① severe headache or extreme irritability; ② Frequent vomiting or convulsions; (3) Breathing and heart rate slowed down, and blood pressure increased; (4) the disturbance of consciousness is aggravated; ⑤ Unequal pupils on both sides suggest that intracranial pressure is obviously increased, and there may be cerebral hernia, which should be actively dehydrated or treated by surgery.
***2*** Brain-heart syndrome When the pathological changes of cerebral hemorrhage spread to the hypothalamus of the higher center of autonomic nerve, resulting in neurohumoral disorder, it often causes changes in the function of heart and brain or organic changes, which is called brain-heart syndrome.
Brain-heart syndrome often appears in two forms: one is brain-heart stroke, that is, cerebral hemorrhage begins first, and then cardiovascular disease occurs. Second, brain and heart stroke at the same time, that is, cerebral hemorrhage and cardiovascular disease occur at the same time or near the same time. However, due to the mutual concealment of symptoms, it is often easy to cause misdiagnosis and affect treatment. Therefore, we should attach great importance to it in the rescue process, seriously ask the medical history, and carefully observe the performance of patients with unintentional dysfunction. If there are abnormal phenomena such as chest tightness, shortness of breath and cyanosis, such as wet rales at the bottom of the lungs, dull heart sounds, tachycardia, etc., ECG examination should be done in time. Once arrhythmia and ECG changes occur, the treatment of cerebral hemorrhage should be treated as organic heart disease.
* * * 3 * * Patients with mild cerebral hemorrhage often have temporary "* * * urinary retention" and dry stools due to bladder and rectal dysfunction and unaccustomed to prone defecation. In severe patients, frequent urination and increased intravesical pressure often occur when the lesion spreads to the hemispheric motor center. If the third ventricle is affected by * * *, there will often be an increase in rectal activity, which will lead to a high degree of hyperdefecation. Patients defecate frequently, but the amount of defecation is less each time. If the gray nodule is damaged, involuntary defecation may occur. If the whole brain is damaged and the patient is in a deep coma, incontinence or urinary retention often occurs.
* * * 4 * * Patients with cerebral hemorrhage due to renal failure and electrolyte disorder cannot respond to subjective feelings due to coma or aphasia, with complicated symptoms and many contradictions in treatment; It is also often caused by frequent vomiting, fever, sweating, application of dehydrating agent and insufficient rehydration, leading to dehydration, electrolyte disorder and renal failure. Sometimes acidosis or occasional alkalosis occurs due to lack of oxygen, hunger and abnormal breathing. However, in the case of coma or infection, the above symptoms are often easily concealed and ignored, making the condition more and more serious, so we should pay attention to observation. When breathing is deepened and accelerated, tachycardia, consciousness disorder is aggravated, blood pressure is decreased, urine volume is reduced, or anuria, edema or dehydration of limbs and face are found, the reasons should be carefully found, and carbon dioxide binding force, non-protein nitrogen, blood gas analysis and electrolyte quantitative determination should be checked in time. If any abnormality is found, it should be handled in time.
***5*** Central thermoregulation disorder When cerebral hemorrhage spreads to the lower and front part of thalamus, the heat dissipation mechanism is destroyed, which can cause persistent high fever, and the body temperature often reaches above 40℃, and may be accompanied by symptoms such as anhidrosis, chills in limbs, tachycardia, and increased breathing. However, white blood cells generally do not increase, and compound aminopyrine and aspirin can not reduce them. Sometimes barbital plus ice pillow is effective in cooling down. If it is not treated in time, it can die for several hours.
* * * 6 * * Patients with bedsore and cerebrovascular disease are often bedridden for a long time due to hemiplegia. In addition, some patients are relatively fat and it is difficult to turn over for care. Sacrococcygeal, medial and lateral ankle, heel, hip and other prominent bone parts, due to long-term compression, blood circulation disorders, often lead to local malnutrition and bedsore.
