1. Apple: Apple is known as the "king of fruits", which can greatly reduce the death risk of patients with coronary heart disease and is an ideal food for preventing and treating coronary heart disease.
An epidemiological study conducted by Dr. Mitchell Hertog of the National Institute of Health and Environmental Protection in the Netherlands shows that eating one or more apples (at least 1 10g) every day can reduce the death risk of coronary heart disease by half. The reason is that the rich flavonoids contained in apples are playing a role.
Apple pectin can reduce blood cholesterol level and help prevent atherosclerosis. However, because apples are rich in sugar, diabetics should not eat too much. Therefore, from the perspective of preventive health care, it is best to eat an apple every day (at least 1 10g). Hawthorn: Hawthorn is a mature fruit of deciduous shrub in Rosaceae. Mild in nature, sweet and sour in taste, and has the functions of promoting digestion, resolving food stagnation and resolving stagnation. As early as the Ming Dynasty, Li Shizhen, a medical scientist in China, used hawthorn to treat diseases caused by eating too much meat.
Modern pharmacological research found that hawthorn mainly contains maslinic acid, citric acid, lipolytic acid, vitamin C, citric acid, flavonoids, carbohydrates and protein, which has the functions of dilating blood vessels, improving microcirculation, lowering blood pressure, promoting cholesterol excretion and lowering blood fat. Therefore, patients with hypertension, hyperlipidemia or atherosclerosis often eat hawthorn, such as hawthorn plant paste, hawthorn strips, hawthorn pill and hawthorn crystals, or brew raw hawthorn with boiling water instead of drinking tea, which is beneficial.
Because hawthorn is an acidic substance, long-term consumption will lead to acid reflux, stomach discomfort or stomach pain, nausea and mild diarrhea, so hawthorn is best eaten after meals, not on an empty stomach. Patients with gastric and duodenal ulcer, long-term consumption of hawthorn can aggravate the ulcer, which should be paid attention to.
Third, kelp: kelp is a healthy food and a good medicine for treating diseases. Kelp contains an effective component called kelp polysaccharide, which can reduce the content of total cholesterol and triglyceride in serum. Animal experiments show that laminarin can reduce the formation and development of atherosclerotic plaques in experimental animals. Moreover, laminarin also has anticoagulant effect, which can prevent the formation of intravascular thrombosis. In addition, kelp also contains cellulose, which can be excreted in combination with bile acids, thus reducing the synthesis of cholesterol and preventing the occurrence of atherosclerosis.
In addition to the above functions, kelp is also rich in vitamins and minerals. Every 100g kelp contains vitamin A 14000 IU, calcium 1770 mg and a lot of iron and vitamin B2. Regular consumption of kelp can prevent night blindness and dry eye, reduce stomatitis and prevent osteoporosis and anemia.
Therefore, eating kelp regularly is good for health.
Mushroom food: Mushroom food is the general name of mushroom food, straw mushroom, shiitake mushroom, oyster mushroom and so on. It is a healthy food with high protein, low fat and rich natural vitamins, and has many unique health care functions.
Mushroom foods generally contain a variety of vitamins. For example, mushrooms are rich in B vitamins, and the content of B 12 is higher than that of meat. Vitamin B 12 is helpful to prevent pernicious anemia and improve neurological function. Mushrooms contain more vitamin B2, which can effectively prevent various inflammations of skin and mucosa, and can also cooperate with nicotinic acid for various detoxification functions. Most mushrooms contain vitamin D, which is the highest. Eating more mushrooms can promote calcium absorption and prevent osteoporosis.
Some components in Lentinus edodes also have the function of lowering cholesterol, which can prevent lipid deposition on the arterial wall and the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. Mushrooms have obvious antihypertensive effect, which is very beneficial to patients with hypertension.
Eating more mushrooms can also induce the human body to produce more interferon, thus playing an antiviral role. Polysaccharides in mushrooms can enhance the phagocytic function of human reticuloendothelial system, promote lymphocyte transformation, activate T cells and B cells, promote antibody formation, and help improve immunity and prevent cancer.
Mushroom is called "health food" because of its unique health care function.
Five: Onion: Onion, also known as onion and jade onion, belongs to Liliaceae. It is native to the northwest of India, so it is called onion in China. Onion is rich in protein, sugar, vitamins B2, B6, C, carotene, thiamine, nicotinic acid, calcium, phosphorus, iron, selenium and other elements, as well as a variety of chemicals, and almost no fat. Every 100g onion contains protein 1.8g, sugar 80g, vitamin C 20mg, selenium 236mg and phosphorus 53mg.
Onion is the only known plant containing prostaglandin A, which is a strong vasodilator, which can relax blood vessels, reduce blood viscosity, increase coronary blood flow, and reduce and prevent thrombosis. Onion contains diallyl disulfide and a small amount of sulfur-containing amino acids, which has the peculiar functions of lowering blood fat, lowering blood pressure, resisting atherosclerosis and preventing myocardial infarction. Some data show that healthy people eat 60 grams of fried onions every day, which can effectively prevent the increase of blood cholesterol caused by high-fat foods. Patients with atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease eat 50 ~ 70 grams of onion every day, and its lipid-lowering effect is more ideal than atropine.
Onion is a plant with strong bactericidal ability. Onion contains a large number of plant fungicides, which can kill and inhibit Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus, diphtheria, Shigella, tuberculosis and Escherichia coli. If you chew the raw ocean for 3 minutes, you can kill all the bacteria in your mouth.
An American medical report pointed out: "Eating an onion every day can keep you healthy." It can be seen that onion has high medicinal value and health care function.
6. Garlic is known as the "green doctor". In ancient China, famous doctors such as Hua Lun and Li Shizhen used garlic to treat various diseases. In ancient Egypt, Greece, India and other countries, there are also various legends about using garlic to treat diseases.
The antibacterial effect of garlic is well known, and its strongest bactericidal component is allicin, which can inhibit or kill a variety of pathogenic bacteria, and is also a good substitute for preventing and treating colds, so garlic has the reputation of "natural broad-spectrum antibiotics".
In recent years, it has been found that garlic also has the special effects of lowering blood lipid and preventing platelet aggregation. The researchers treated 30 patients with coronary heart disease with garlic. After 8 months, the blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels of these patients decreased significantly, while the healthy high-density lipoprotein increased, thus greatly reducing the risk of coronary heart disease. Alliin and cyclic alliin in garlic are effective components for reducing blood lipid. In addition, another effective component extracted from garlic, methylene trisulfide and diallyl disulfide, has a strong anti-platelet aggregation effect. Because many patients with coronary heart disease are often in hypercoagulable state besides hypercholesterolemia, regular consumption of garlic has a good effect on preventing hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease, and can prevent stroke.
Garlic is a vegetable with medicinal value. But improper diet also has a negative side. Eating garlic often can easily cause blepharitis or conjunctivitis. Garlic, in particular, is not only irritating, but also corrosive. Eating too much garlic will damage the gastric mucosa, cause gastritis and ulcers, and even stomach bleeding. Therefore, patients with ulcer and ocular inflammation should not eat garlic.
The main points of eating garlic are: eat a little more, don't eat on an empty stomach, eat after boiling water, and don't eat breakfast.
Seven. Beans: beans include soybeans (such as soybeans, black beans, mung beans, red beans, etc. ), broad beans, peas, red beans, mung beans, etc. They are a good source of human protein, and they are also healthy foods for preventing and treating hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease. Protein content in beans is high, and the quality is good, especially in soybeans. Every100g of soybeans contains about 40g of protein. Other beans, such as broad bean, red bean and mung bean, also contain 20-25g protein per 100g.
The amino acids in soybean protein are relatively complete, so the nutritional value is high. Especially after being processed into products such as tofu, it is easier to be digested, absorbed and utilized by the human body. Soybean contains high fat (about 16% ~ 20%), of which polyunsaturated fatty acids account for about 60%, which is much higher than other vegetable oils. In addition, soybean is rich in phosphate, phytosterol, dietary fiber, vitamins, inorganic salts and trace elements, such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, manganese and iodine. All these are not only beneficial to health, but also beneficial to the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease.
Adding soybeans to the diet is helpful to reduce the serum cholesterol content of patients with hypercholesterolemia. The researchers found that soybean had no obvious effect on subjects whose serum cholesterol content was below 6.63 mmol/L, but for subjects whose serum cholesterol content was between (663 ~ 8.66 mmol/L), the serum cholesterol content could be reduced by 7.4%, and for those with higher serum cholesterol content, the reduction range could reach 19.6%.
Experts pointed out that 100g soybean milk contains 1.8 ~ 4.4g soybean protein, 100g tofu contains 72 ~1.4g soybean protein, and 100g soybean powder contains 35.3 ~ 45.9g soybean protein.
Japan's "Daily News" recently pointed out that vinegar is not only a good condiment, but also has many uses such as preventing and improving hypertension, hyperlipidemia and hyperglycemia, and relieving fatigue. I suggest you be jealous.
According to a report by a research group of the Health Management Center of Osaka International Studies University, vinegar is quite beneficial to patients with hypertension. The researchers asked a group of hypertensive patients to drink a drink containing 15 to 30 ml of apple vinegar every day. After 8 weeks, the blood pressure of this group of patients decreased by 15 to 30 mm Hg compared with that of the other group who did not drink vinegar drinks. 15 ml vinegar is probably a small cup. If you insist on drinking a small cup of apple vinegar every day, the total cholesterol content in your blood will decrease.
Tofu Eating tofu regularly can lower the cholesterol in the human body. Tofu is often used to cook celery leaves to help lower blood pressure.
Celery often eats celery fried shredded pork, which has the effects of protecting blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and calming down.
Onions often eat onions, which can reduce blood fat, prevent thrombosis and reduce high blood pressure.
Onions can reduce the accumulation of cholesterol on the blood vessel wall, and often eat onions to cook tofu, which has a synergistic antihypertensive effect.
Kelp can prevent fat from depositing on the arterial wall, and is often eaten together with kelp stewed tofu, which helps to lower blood pressure.
Soak peanuts in vinegar 1 week, and add brown sugar, garlic and soy sauce in the morning and evening. After a week or two, high blood pressure can generally be reduced. If you use 50 ~ 100 peanut shells, wash them and soak them in water instead of drinking tea, it will have a remarkable effect on treating hypertension.
Vinegar People with hypertension and arteriosclerosis can reduce the blockage of blood circulation by drinking proper amount of vinegar every day. If you lose weight with vinegar, you can lose 500 grams per week on average.
Apocynum venetum 3 yuan a day, boiled water as tea for half a month, has special effects on treating hypertension.
Dry tea residue dries the waste tea residue and puts it into a small cloth bag as a pillow, which is not only soft and comfortable, but also has the effect of calming the liver and lowering blood pressure, and also has an auxiliary effect on migraine and other symptoms.
The following fruits have antihypertensive effects:
1. Oranges contain a lot of vitamin C, glucose and 10 nutrients. For hypertension caused by chronic hepatitis, oranges can improve liver detoxification, accelerate cholesterol conversion and prevent arteriosclerosis.
Hawthorn can dilate blood vessels and lower blood pressure and cholesterol.
3. Banana contains starch, pectin, vitamins A, B, C, E and other substances.
4. Persimmons There are many varieties of persimmons, which contain about 10 kinds of nutrients. People pay attention to the role of persimmon in treating hypertension, hemorrhoid bleeding and arteriosclerosis.
5. Apple contains malic acid, vitamins A, B, C and other nutrients 10. Eating apples regularly is beneficial to hypertensive patients with high salt.
6. Proteolytic enzyme extracted from pineapple juice is used as anti-edema and anti-rheumatoid in clinic. Eating pineapple regularly can enhance the hydrolysis of cellulose in the body.
7. Fresh plum is rich in malic acid and succinic acid, which has the functions of lowering blood pressure, sleeping peacefully, clearing away heat and promoting fluid production.
8. Wax gourd has the functions of clearing away heat, relieving annoyance, promoting fluid production to quench thirst, invigorating stomach and relieving bloating.
9. Watermelon has a good therapeutic effect on hypertension.
10. Water chestnut contains crude protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin C and other nutrients. Medicinal fresh water chestnut has good antihypertensive and expectorant effects.
What are the vegetables with antihypertensive effect?
Increasing vegetable intake and reducing fat intake, many vegetables contain a lot of potassium, which is very beneficial to the prevention and treatment of hypertension. In addition, some vegetables, such as soybean, onion, hawthorn, corn, auricularia auricula, etc., do not have direct antihypertensive effect, but have lipid-lowering effect, which can prevent arteriosclerosis and protect arterial blood vessels.
Garlic is a vegetable with hypotensive effect: it contains allicin, which can reduce blood lipid, blood sugar and blood pressure and prevent atherosclerosis. Eating garlic every day for about 4-5 weeks will reduce blood pressure by 65,438+00%, thus preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Kelp: contains a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, which can remove excessive cholesterol attached to the blood vessel wall of human body; Alginic acid, a dietary fiber in kelp, can promote cholesterol excretion, inhibit absorption and lower blood pressure. Kelp is rich in calcium, which can reduce the body's absorption of cholesterol. These three substances work together to prevent hypertension, hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis. Auricularia auricula: It can resist platelet aggregation, reduce blood lipid and prevent cholesterol. Regular consumption of auricularia auricula can prevent hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis and hypertension. Onion: allyl disulfide and a small amount of methionine contained in it can reduce blood lipid, prevent arteriosclerosis and prevent hypertension. In addition, celery, tomatoes and other vegetables also have the effect of lowering blood fat and blood pressure.
How to effectively prevent hypertension?
Hypertension is one of the most important risk factors of coronary heart disease. Prevention and treatment of hypertension is of great significance to prevent coronary heart disease and reduce the mortality rate of coronary heart disease. The specific method is as follows:
(1) Regular blood pressure measurement is an effective method for early detection of symptomatic hypertension. For people with a family history of hypertension, blood pressure should be checked regularly at an early age. The systolic blood pressure of normal children = age ×2+80(mmHg), and the diastolic blood pressure is 2/3 ~ 3/5 of the systolic blood pressure. The normal maximum value of school-age children is12/107 kpa (120/80 mmhg). For those who have no family history of hypertension, blood pressure should be measured regularly from the age of 40. Some patients with hypertension can remain asymptomatic for 10 ~ 20 years, once they are found to be above stage II.
(2) limiting salt. Many studies have proved that salt intake is positively correlated with the incidence of hypertension. People with low sodium for life will hardly suffer from high blood pressure. According to the data of the World Health Organization, the daily salt intake of each person is 3 ~ 5g, which has a good effect on preventing hypertension. People with a family history of hypertension should only eat 2 ~ 3g of salt every day.
(3) Quit smoking. Smoking can raise blood pressure and accelerate the heart rate. Smoking sometimes raises blood pressure by 3.33 kPa (25 mm Hg). Nicotine acts on the vascular motor center, at the same time, it also increases the secretion of adrenaline and causes the contraction of arterioles. Long-term heavy smoking can make arterioles contract continuously, and the arterial wall degenerates, hardens and narrows for a long time, forming persistent hypertension.
(4) control weight. Being overweight brings many side effects to the body. The prevalence of hypertension in obese people is 2 ~ 6 times that of normal weight people. Losing weight can normalize blood pressure. Some people have observed moderate hypertension for 5 ~ 10 years, and found that the average weight loss is 5%, which makes 2/3 patients who rely on drugs to reduce blood pressure give up taking drugs; Losing weight can also significantly reduce the dosage of antihypertensive drugs. Controlling high-sugar and high-fat foods, eating fewer meals and taking an active part in physical exercise are important ways to lose weight.
(5) Take an active part in physical exercise and relax the tension. Lack of outdoor sports is one of the main causes of "office disease" in the 20th century. Lack of physical exercise can easily lead to fat accumulation, weight gain and high blood pressure. Physical exercise can also relax the nervous spirit. Jogging, walking and swimming are good for stabilizing blood pressure.
(6) Control critical hypertension in time. When the blood pressure is between18.7 ~ 21.312.127 kpa (140 ~160/90 ~ 95 mmhg), it is called critical hypertension. Severe hypertension is asymptomatic, but it must be paid attention to. America is 45 years old. Non-drug treatment should be used first for borderline hypertension. In addition to the above measures, there are physical therapy, acupuncture and so on. You can also use it, which can achieve good results.
