Common sense of preventing cardiovascular diseases 1. How to prevent cardiovascular diseases?
First, pay attention to the intake of fat, calories and salt, and eat more fruits and vegetables.
As we all know, animal fat will increase the cholesterol content in the blood. If the content is too high, it will block the artery and cause arteriosclerosis and stenosis. Excessive calorie intake will lead to obesity, which will easily increase the burden on the heart and increase the risk of arteriosclerosis.
Vegetables are rich in fiber, which can reduce cholesterol in blood and keep blood vessels unblocked. Second, quit smoking and drinking.
Cigarettes contain nicotine, carbon monoxide and tar. Long-term smoking will cause vasoconstriction, increase blood viscosity and platelet viscosity, and decrease the ability to dissolve thrombus and heme's oxygen carrying capacity, so it is easy to produce cerebral ischemia and cerebral infarction. Third, pay attention to blood sugar and blood pressure. If the blood sugar concentration is too high (the blood sugar concentration before meals reaches 130~ 160mg/dl), it will damage the intima of arteries and increase harmful fat. If the blood pressure is too high, it will make the heart beat faster, damage the inner wall of arterial blood vessels, and easily lead to cardiovascular diseases.
Fourth, moderate exercise. Exercise can increase the concentration of beneficial cholesterol in blood and lower blood pressure, so doctors recommend exercising at least three to five times a week for at least 30 minutes each time.
Studies have confirmed that 20 minutes of exercise every day can increase life expectancy by one year, one hour can increase life expectancy by two years, and one and a half hours of exercise every day can increase life expectancy by three years. With exercise and a happy mood, life can be relaxed and happy.
Fifth, pay attention to the body's warmth and temperature changes. When the temperature drops, the blood vessels will contract, especially in winter, when the temperature changes greatly, once the blood vessels contract, they will form blood clots, causing obstruction, which will lead to danger.
Sixth, do regular health checks. The Department of Health of the Executive Yuan calls on people over 40 to have regular check-ups.
2. Prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases
First, understand your cardiovascular risk factors, implement self-care and be responsible for your own health.
Second, keep a good attitude, actively adapt to social development and changes, and have a sunny heart and an open mind. Third, actively participate in daily life, take part in fitness exercises, and maintain good blood circulation to slow down muscle atrophy, prevent obesity, and enhance heart function.
Take the heart rate as an example. If it is 70 times/minute, it can be reduced to 60 times/minute after exercise. On the surface, it may be no different from before, but it has reduced 10 beats. However, within a year, it reduced 5.5 million heartbeats. Fitness exercise is good for heart health, and the most beneficial exercise is walking.
Local physical exercise (such as dumbbells and tension springs) is not good for the heart. Fourth, get rid of bad habits and unhealthy habits, maintain a healthy life pattern and way, and have personal cultural interests.
Adhere to a low-fat diet and change the high-fat eating habits. According to a survey of the eating habits of 3.3 million residents in a big city, in the past 20 years, the proportion of cereals, potatoes and beans has dropped from two-thirds to one-third; However, meat and oily food increased by nearly 10 times, and the average daily intake of edible oil per person was 83 grams, far exceeding the normal level of 25-35 grams.
Sixth, the diet is diversified to maintain the acid-base balance in the body. Normal blood is weakly alkaline, with a pH of 7.35~7.45, which can keep blood vessels soft.
If there are too many acidic foods and too few alkaline foods in the diet, it will destroy the acid-base balance in the body. The acidity, alkalinity and taste of food are completely different.
After food is digested and decomposed in the body, foods containing more sodium, potassium and calcium are called alkaline foods, such as beans, milk, egg whites, fruits, vegetables, kelp and tea. Acidic food, such as flour, rice, meat, sugar, poultry, fish and shrimp, etc. Seven, drinking milk every day can supplement calcium.
The calcium contained in milk is most suitable for absorption and utilization. Eight, people are different in sensitivity to salt, some people are sensitive to salt, eat salty, and their blood pressure rises; Some people are not sensitive to salt, even if they eat salty food, their blood pressure will not rise.
Generally speaking, a light diet is good for the heart and blood vessels. Nine, do a physical examination every year and get health guidance, which is also conducive to the early detection of patients.
Many chronic diseases occur gradually from health to disease, and it is difficult to find them consciously in the early stage. For example, high blood pressure, about 70% of people are found in health checkups.
Hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerosis, diabetes, and impaired cardiac function found in physical examination are all likely to cause coronary heart disease. Individualized treatment can be restored and controlled, and atherosclerosis can also be subsided. People over the age of 35 who have a family history of cardiovascular disease should be prevented as early as possible.
X. inoculate with appropriate vaccines. For the infirm and the elderly, pneumonia vaccine and influenza vaccines, as well as cold vaccines and SARS vaccines being developed at home and abroad, should also be inoculated to enhance immunity, prevent multiple infections, protect the heart and blood vessels, and reduce the harm of cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are diseases with high disability rate.
Once you get this disease, it is difficult for you to take care of yourself, causing great economic burden and psychological pressure on your family. Patients themselves are often depressed because they drag down their families, which affects the treatment of diseases.
For cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, whether from the economic point of view, family point of view, or from the health point of view, only prevention is a foolproof policy and a wise move. Prevention a day earlier, peace of mind a little earlier.
In particular, the following people should be highly valued and need to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases immediately. (1) government officials, leaders of enterprises and institutions, intellectuals, etc.
Because they are under too much pressure, they are nervous every day, nervous imbalance and metabolic disorder. The imbalance of main organ functions is easy to cause arteriosclerosis, which leads to coronary heart disease and cerebral thrombosis. (2) Excessive drinking and smoking lead to irregular life.
They are more likely to cause vasospasm, poor blood flow, and often suffer from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases prematurely. (3) Obesity and unscientific diet.
They are often overnourished, which makes the blood cholesterol content too high. (4) People over 40 years old, especially middle-aged and elderly friends, have symptoms such as dizziness, palpitation, shortness of breath, memory loss, numbness of limbs, and decreased hearing and vision.
The secret of preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases lies in "reasonable diet, moderate exercise, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, eating less salt and keeping a psychological balance". The birth of fish oil ensures the prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
To prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, we should develop the following good living habits. (1) Reasonable Diet With the improvement of people's living standards in China, the quality of life of residents has been continuously improved.
But many people's diet is not scientific, thinking that big fish and big meat is the improvement of quality of life, but it is not. People's health is different, so is their diet.
It is suggested that patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases develop the following eating habits. 1, increasing fiber in fiber diet can reduce serum cholesterol concentration.
Foods rich in dietary fiber mainly include miscellaneous grains, rice bran, wheat bran, dried beans, kelp, vegetables and fruits. 35-45 grams of fiber per day. Common foods with lipid-lowering function are onion, garlic, mushrooms, fungus, celery and so on.
2. Eat more fish and fish oil. Fish oil has obvious function of regulating blood lipid and preventing arteriosclerosis. A large intake of fish oil rich in omega-3 has a positive preventive effect on cardiovascular diseases.
International nutrition organizations suggest that people should consume 2,500 kilocalories per day, and correspondingly 0.6- 1 g of omega-3 fatty acids in the form of EPA and DHA. Take the middle-aged and elderly fish oil of Hongyangshen as an example. You should take at least 3-5 fish oil capsules with 700mg and 30% content every day to ensure the basic needs of the human body.
3, eat more soy products, soybeans are rich in a variety of phospholipids necessary for the human body. Eating more bean products such as bean curd, bean sprouts, dried bean curd and soybean oil is beneficial to human health and can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
In addition, the intake of fat and cholesterol should be reduced appropriately. The intake of fat should be strictly limited to no more than 30 grams per day or less than 65,438+05% of the total calories. Cholesterol intake should be controlled below 200 mg -300 mg per day.
Try to avoid eating foods with high cholesterol, such as brain, spinal cord, viscera, egg yolk, shellfish (such as mussels) and mollusks (such as squid, cuttlefish and roe). (2) Scientific life 1, strengthening physical exercise every day 1 hour, and being proactive.
3. How to prevent cardiovascular diseases
Cardiovascular diseases, also known as circulatory diseases, are a series of diseases involving the circulatory system. The circulatory system refers to the organs and tissues that transport blood in the human body, mainly including the heart and blood vessels (arteries, veins and microvessels), which can be subdivided into acute and chronic diseases, generally related to arteriosclerosis.
These diseases all have similar etiology, pathogenesis and treatment. Mainly include: palpitation, dyspnea, cyanosis, dizziness, syncope, fatigue and other symptoms.
Common in coronary heart disease, hypertension, sudden death, angina pectoris, acute myocardial infarction, hyperlipidemia and other diseases. Four risk factors: obesity, protein deficiency, dietary fiber and salt deficiency.
Prevention: A reasonable diet is very important in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Patients should pay strict attention to the following points in diet: 1. Control cholesterol intake. Studies have proved that the incidence of coronary heart disease in people with high cholesterol is five times higher than that in normal people.
Therefore, patients with cardiovascular diseases should eat less high-cholesterol foods such as animal brain marrow, viscera, egg yolk and crab yolk. 2. Control the quality and quantity of fat intake.
Saturated fatty acids can increase blood cholesterol, and polyunsaturated fatty acids can reduce cholesterol, so the intake of saturated fatty acids such as lard and butter should be controlled in the diet. 3. Eat more foods rich in vitamin C, such as vegetables and fruits.
Vitamin C can increase blood vessel elasticity and protect blood vessels. 4. Increase the intake of dietary fiber.
Dietary fiber can absorb cholesterol and prevent it from being absorbed by human body. 5. Limit salt.
A high-salt diet will increase the incidence of cardiovascular diseases. For people with mild hypertension or family history of hypertension, the salt intake should be controlled below 5 grams per day. For patients with hypertension or complicated heart failure, the daily salt intake should be1~ 2g. 6. Eat less and eat more, avoid overeating, and don't eat too much at dinner, otherwise it will easily induce acute myocardial infarction.
Patients with cardiovascular diseases should also give up smoking, limit alcohol and drink less strong tea, and the following dietetic Chinese medicines can be applied: 1. Eating 1~2 hawthorn every day has the effect of lowering blood pressure. Suitable for patients with hypertension, hyperlipidemia and coronary heart disease.
2. Garlic The effective components of garlic can inhibit the development of atherosclerosis, lower blood lipid and prevent blood coagulation, so it should be eaten regularly. 3. Experiments of seaweed and kelp show that both of them have the effects of lowering blood fat and blood pressure, which can delay the development of arteriosclerosis, and patients with coronary heart disease should take them frequently.
4. Lotus seeds can soothe the nerves and tonify the spleen and kidney. Regular use of this product is beneficial to people with palpitation, upset, insomnia and dreaminess.
5. Longan meat has the functions of nourishing the heart and strengthening the spleen, benefiting qi and enriching blood. 6. Stigma Maydis and Stigma Maydis are decocted in water, which has the functions of pressing and diuresis.
With the improvement of people's living standards in China, the quality of life of residents is also constantly improving. But many people's diet is not scientific, thinking that big fish and big meat is the improvement of quality of life, but it is not.
People's health is different, so is their diet. It is suggested that patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases develop the following eating habits.
1. Increasing fiber in fiber diet can reduce serum cholesterol concentration. Foods rich in dietary fiber mainly include miscellaneous grains, rice bran, wheat bran, dried beans, kelp, vegetables and fruits. 35-45 grams of fiber per day.
Common foods with lipid-lowering function are onion, garlic, mushrooms, fungus, celery and so on. 2. Eat more fish and fish oil. Fish oil can obviously regulate blood lipid and prevent arteriosclerosis.
A large intake of fish oil rich in omega-3 has a positive preventive effect on cardiovascular diseases. International nutrition organizations suggest that people should consume 2,500 kilocalories per day, and correspondingly 0.6- 1 g of omega-3 fatty acids in the form of EPA and DHA.
Take the middle-aged and elderly fish oil of Hongyangshen as an example. You should take at least 3-5 fish oil capsules with 700mg and 30% content every day to ensure the basic needs of the human body. 3. Eat more soy products. Soybean is rich in many kinds of phospholipids necessary for human body.
Eating more bean products such as bean curd, bean sprouts, dried bean curd and soybean oil is beneficial to human health and can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. 4. In addition, the intake of fat and cholesterol should be reduced appropriately, and the intake of fat should be strictly limited to no more than 30 grams per day or less than 15% of total calories.
Cholesterol intake should be controlled below 200 mg -300 mg per day. Try to avoid eating foods with high cholesterol, such as brain, spinal cord, viscera, egg yolk, shellfish (such as mussels) and mollusks (such as squid, cuttlefish and roe).
Iron is an important element that binds oxygen to heme. In the lungs, the inhaled oxygen is combined with red blood cells and then transported to various organs through blood vessels.
Therefore, as an important tissue part of oxygen supply medium, once the supply can not meet the demand, it will directly lead to the reduction or even disappearance of blood oxygen transport capacity, which will seriously endanger human health. Scientific life 1. Strengthen physical exercise. Exercise every day 1 hour. During exercise, the heart rate should not exceed the difference between 170 and age, or the body is slightly sweaty and not tired, and feels relaxed after exercise. Keep exercising for not less than 5 days a week and persevere.
2. Quit smoking and limit alcohol. Long-term smoking and drinking will interfere with blood lipid metabolism and increase blood lipid. 3. Avoid mental stress, emotional excitement, insomnia, overwork, irregular life, anxiety and depression, etc. to make lipid metabolism disorder.
Middle-aged and elderly people should not play mahjong or chess for a long time, keep calm and try to be less angry. Take drugs that interfere with lipid metabolism as little as possible, such as beta blockers, propranolol, diuretics, dihydrograms, furosemide, steroid hormones, etc. , can raise blood lipids.
Actively treat diseases that affect blood lipid metabolism, such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, nephrotic syndrome, alcoholism, pancreatitis, lupus erythematosus and so on. , will interfere with blood lipid metabolism. Middle-aged people over 45 years old, obese people, people with a family history of hyperlipidemia, people who often take part in eating, drinking and entertainment, and workers with high mental stress are all high-risk targets. Blood lipid and blood pressure should be checked regularly (at least once a year).
The dietary principles of cardiovascular diseases: cholesterol control: do not eat or eat as little as possible egg yolk, animal brain and viscera, crustaceans, mussels, snails, crabs, etc. Control fat: don't eat or eat less animal oil, eat vegetable oil, peanut oil, sesame oil and corn oil (oily food); Control sugar: don't eat or eat less candy, pumpkin, sucrose and other things with more sugar. Corn corn is rich in fat, and the content of unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid, is as high as 60%.
4. How to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases?
Nine effective foods for preventing cardiovascular diseases.
Corn: Corn is rich in fat, and the content of unsaturated fatty acids, especially linoleic acid, is as high as 60% or more. It is helpful to the normal metabolism of human fat and cholesterol, and can reduce the deposition of cholesterol in blood vessels, thus softening arterial blood vessels.
Tomatoes: Not only are the contents of various vitamins 24 times higher than those of apples and pears, but they also contain vitamin rutin, which can improve the oxidation capacity of the body, eliminate free radicals and other wastes in the body, protect the elasticity of blood vessels and prevent thrombosis.
Apple: Apple is rich in polysaccharide, fruit acid, flavonoids, potassium, vitamins E and C, which can decompose accumulated fat and have obvious effects on delaying and preventing the occurrence of atherosclerosis.
Kelp: Kelp is rich in fucoidan and laminin, both of which have heparin-like activity, which can not only prevent thrombosis, but also reduce cholesterol and lipoprotein and inhibit atherosclerosis.
Tea: contains tea polyphenols, which can improve the body's antioxidant capacity, reduce blood lipids, relieve hypercoagulability, enhance the elasticity of red blood cells, and alleviate or delay atherosclerosis. Drinking tea often can soften arterial blood vessels.
Garlic: contains volatile capsaicin, which can eliminate the fat accumulated in blood vessels and has obvious lipid-lowering effect. It is a good medicine for treating hyperlipidemia and arteriosclerosis.
Onion: It contains prostaglandin A, which can dilate blood vessels, relax blood vessels, reduce blood viscosity and relieve blood vessel pressure. At the same time, onion also contains diallyl disulfide and sulfur-containing amino acids, which can enhance fibrinolytic activity, reduce blood lipid and prevent arteriosclerosis.
Eggplant: It protects the cardiovascular system and lowers blood pressure. Eggplant is rich in vitamin P, a flavonoid. It can soften blood vessels, enhance blood vessel elasticity, reduce capillary permeability, prevent capillary rupture, and have a certain preventive effect on small blood vessel bleeding.
Panax notoginseng: can promote blood circulation and prevent cardiovascular diseases: regular consumption can reduce blood cholesterol and triglycerides and prevent hyperlipidemia, hypertension, stroke and cardiovascular diseases. It is the best health food for cardiovascular diseases.
