1, do more vascular gymnastics
Everyone knows that "life lies in exercise", and this principle also applies to vascular health care.
In vascular surgery, diseases such as deep vein thrombosis were originally high-risk diseases for the elderly and postoperative patients, but now they appear more and more frequently in young people. One of the main reasons is that the blood vessels are not moving.
Methods: No matter what reason you have to sit for a long time, you should remember to do some exercises aimed at blood vessels from time to time, such as getting up and exercising for 10 minutes after sitting for an hour, or stretching, or lifting your legs from time to time while sitting.
Step 2 wear a pair of stress-reducing elastic socks
Many people who stand for a long time, such as salespeople and teachers, have great pressure on their legs because of standing for a long time, so they have great damage to blood vessels and are prone to varicose veins. Others are too thin and weak, and are prone to varicose veins compared with normal people. In addition, pregnant women and people who often drive various means of transportation are also high-risk groups of varicose veins.
Methods: To prevent varicose veins, you can wear high-elastic socks. The professional name of elastic socks is medical sequential decompression elastic socks, which can promote venous blood to return to the heart, help venous blood return of lower limbs through pressure decrease, and effectively relieve or improve the pressure of veins and venous valves of lower limbs. If you can wear these socks every day, at least until you know that you will stand for a long time, you can effectively protect the venous blood vessels in your legs. People who already have venous diseases can still treat diseases by wearing these socks.
3. A bowl of oatmeal every morning.
Protecting blood vessels starts with diet. It is recommended to drink a glass of milk and a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast every day.
Function: Milk can supplement enough protein, and dietary fiber contained in oats is an important substance for lowering blood lipid and cholesterol. Dietary fiber has many nutritional and health functions: weight control and weight loss; Prevention and nutritional treatment of diabetes; Regulating gastrointestinal function (improving constipation and preventing intestinal cancer); Reduce blood lipids, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases; Prevent cancer, etc.
4. Eat leafy vegetables for lunch.
In terms of vegetables, the more kinds you eat at each meal, the better, so that you can get enough vitamins, while leafy vegetables contain more cellulose. Porphyra, kelp, sea cucumber, tomato, celery and eggplant all have the effects of clearing away heat and lowering blood pressure. If you want to protect blood vessels, you might as well eat more conscious things.
5. Chew slowly while eating.
When eating, you must chew slowly. Eating too fast often leads to excessive calorie intake, because people's satiety will only appear in about 20 minutes. Slowing down the speed of eating can not only fully secrete saliva and help digestion, but also avoid unintentional overeating, leading to obesity and increasing body fat.
6. Drink plenty of boiled water
The human body should keep enough water every day, so drink more boiled water, because most drinks contain high sugar, which has an impact on blood composition and is also a factor of arteriosclerosis. So drinking boiled water is the healthiest. Besides, it's good to drink some light tea.
7. What to eat to clean blood vessels
1, eating carrots promotes toxin excretion.
Carrots contain a lot of pectin. The combination of pectin and mercury can effectively reduce the concentration of mercury ions in blood, promote blood circulation, accelerate the elimination of toxins in blood vessels and protect blood vessels.
2, eat onions to reduce blood viscosity
Onion contains prostaglandin A, which can dilate blood vessels, help to relax blood vessels, reduce blood viscosity and reduce blood vessel pressure. At the same time, onion also contains diallyl disulfide and sulfur-containing amino acids, which is helpful to enhance fibrinolytic activity, reduce blood lipid and prevent arteriosclerosis.
3. Eat corn to soften arterial blood vessels
Corn is rich in fat, which is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid. Supplementing linoleic acid contributes to the normal metabolism of human fat and cholesterol, reduces the deposition of cholesterol in blood vessels, and thus softens arterial blood vessels.
4. Eat tomatoes to protect blood vessel elasticity
Tomato not only has higher vitamin content than other foods, but also contains vitamin rutin, which can improve the oxidation ability of human body, eliminate free radicals and other wastes in the body, help protect blood vessel elasticity and prevent thrombosis.
5, eat bamboo shoots to lower blood cholesterol.
Bamboo shoots have the effects of clearing away heat and resolving phlegm, relaxing bowels and promoting digestion. They are rich in dietary fiber, which can help break down food residues and lower cholesterol in the blood. Long-term consumption can also prevent intestinal cancer. It is worth mentioning that bamboo shoots are low in fat and sugar, so people with high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia can also take them for a long time.
6. Drink tea to relieve hypercoagulability.
Tea contains a large amount of tea polyphenols, which can improve the body's antioxidant capacity, reduce blood lipid, relieve hypercoagulability, increase erythrocyte elasticity, and alleviate or delay atherosclerosis. Drinking tea often can soften arterial blood vessels.
7. Eat Chinese cabbage to prevent plasma cholesterol.
Chinese cabbage contains a lot of crude fiber, which can prevent the formation of plasma cholesterol and promote the excretion of cholic acid, a cholesterol metabolite, so as to reduce the formation of atherosclerosis and maintain vascular elasticity.
8, eat eggplant to prevent capillary rupture.
Eggplant is rich in vitamin P, a flavonoid. Eating eggplant often can soften blood vessels, enhance blood vessel elasticity, reduce capillary permeability, prevent capillary rupture, effectively protect blood vessels and lower blood pressure.
