Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction, diabetes, arteriosclerosis, etc., are all chronic diseases, such as hypertension, high cholesterol, hyperglycemia, high uric acid, etc., and these diseases all have a common feature that they are fat, so to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, we must first maintain a healthy weight. Secondly, we should develop good living habits, avoid staying up late, go to bed early and get up early. Drink water first thing in the morning, because the body will evaporate a lot of water and the blood will concentrate overnight.

Timely hydration can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The first is lifestyle, including eating habits and exercise habits.

Therefore, low-salt diet is the first principle to prevent hypertension in the elderly. Secondly, the elderly should pay attention to the diversification of food nutrition, and the daily intake of vitamins and protein must be sufficient. Protein is one of the basic components of cells and tissues, so it is necessary to ensure the daily intake of high-quality protein, such as plant protein (such as soybean milk, tofu and other foods) and fish. Green leafy vegetables and fruits should also be balanced.

In addition, you should not eat too much per meal, and it is advisable to eat for 8 minutes. You can add nuts, yogurt and other foods between meals to prevent hunger and do everything possible to avoid overeating. If you have energy, do at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise every day, such as brisk walking and swimming. You can also practice some health skills, such as Taiji Chuan and Wuqinxi.

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases have become a dangerous killer that threatens the lives of the elderly and reduces their viability. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are common diseases of the elderly, not only the elderly, but also the health killers of young people. Now it is closely related to your usual eating habits and lifestyle, such as unreasonable diet, too little exercise, eating too much staple food, liking greasy food, smoking and drinking.
