How does Chinese medicine prevent stroke?

Stroke is an inevitable contemporary disease with rapid economic development, and middle-aged and elderly people seem to be in danger. So, what else should we pay attention to in our daily life? From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it emphasizes psychological prevention, diet and daily life, and exercise prevention.

psychological prevention

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that restraint of seven emotions, including joy, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear and shock, is not only beneficial to people's physical and mental health, but also beneficial to treating diseases or alleviating some diseases. Happiness is one of the most important measures to keep healthy, and it is also the golden key to health. To be cheerful, you must be calm, optimistic, strong-willed and cheerful, so

Reasonable diet

These are two words by Professor Hong Zhaoguang: 12345, red, yellow, green, white and black. What do these two sentences mean?

One is to drink a bag of milk every day.

The second is to eat 250~350 grams of carbohydrates every day, which means eating 6 to 7 staple foods every day.

The third is high protein, such as eggs, fish, chickens and so on.

The fourth is four sentences, coarse and fine, neither sweet nor salty, three or four or five meals, seven or eight full. This means that when eating, you should mix coarse grains with flour and rice, eat less and more meals, eat three or five meals a day, and eat seven or eight full meals, that is, don't be too full.

Five fingers means eating 500 grams of fruits and vegetables every day.

What does this red finger mean? This means eating a tomato every day.

Yellow refers to eating yellow vegetables every day, such as pumpkin, watermelon, carrot, corn, sweet potato and so on. These plants contain a lot of vitamin a.

Green refers to green tea, because green tea contains a lot of antioxidants, which can improve immunity and resist aging.

White mainly refers to oatmeal, which can moisten the intestines and relax the bowels, especially suitable for the elderly.

Black here refers to auricularia auricula. We know that auricularia auricula can lower blood viscosity and reduce stroke. These ten words comprehensively summarize the contents of a reasonable diet.

A regular life

In other words, life should be regular, and daily life sometimes. It's freezing now, and everything in the universe is in the collection stage. At this time, we should pay attention to cold and warmth, let the yin essence hide inside, and the yang will not leak out. In daily life, we should pay attention to going to bed early and keeping warm.

Moderate exercise.

We say that life lies in exercise. Insisting on moderate physical exercise and physical exercise can harmonize qi and blood, promote blood circulation, increase physical strength, and help relieve tension. We can choose some aerobics, walking, jogging, Tai Ji Chuan and Baduanjin.

Here, I will introduce two methods of breathing guidance to you. One is to massage Zhongshan point, and the other is to massage Yongquan point.

Zhongshan point is the midpoint of the connecting line between two mastoid processes and sternum. Put your hands together and rotate clockwise or counterclockwise 40 or 50 times a day. What are the advantages of pressing Zhongshan point? We know that in the middle of the chest and abdomen, Chinese medicine believes that it is the place where qi meets, and it can play a role in preventing cardiovascular diseases and strokes after pressing.

Rubbing Yongquan point is what most people often say. This action should be done while sitting, rubbing your left foot with your right hand. At this time, the left hand lifts the toes and rubs the thenar of the right hand back and forth on the soles of the feet. What are the benefits? We know that Yongquan point belongs to the kidney meridian. It is the meridian point of the kidney meridian, and the kidney water should rise. Therefore, rubbing Yongquan point can make the kidney water rise and the heart and kidney intersect, which has a better effect on some patients with dizziness, tinnitus and headache.

Finally, the six-character formula for middle-aged and elderly friends to prevent stroke is stability, prevention, low, taboo, practice and diagnosis.

Stability is emotional stability;

Prevention is to prevent constipation. We know that dry stool is easy to increase intra-abdominal pressure, and sudden increase of blood pressure is easy to cause stroke.

Low means the diet should be low in fat and salt;

Avoid eating too much, watching TV for too long, and stop taking medicine at will.

Exercise refers to insisting on moderate exercise;

Diagnosis is early treatment of small stroke.

If we can do these six things, the stroke will be far away from us.
