If the blood vessels are not blocked, clench your fists for 30 seconds, if there is one of these symptoms, or the blood is too thick
The risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems is high. At present, about 290 million people have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular problems to varying degrees.
In layman's terms, these problems are "blocked" by blood vessels, and cardiovascular problems have become an important factor that threatens life and health.
Atherosclerosis, which can be said to be the core of the entire vascular problem, mainly refers to the deposition of a layer of yellow lipids like millet atheroma on the arterial wall.
The arterial wall is gradually thickened and hardened, and the lumen is narrowed, just like the hot water pipe of the shower.
The symptoms of blood vessel blockage in different parts are different: coronary artery blockage is prone to coronary heart disease; carotid artery blockage is prone to cerebral insufficiency; renal artery blockage is prone to affect renal and urinary function; blockage in lower extremity arteries is prone to occur Physical disabilities...these are the great enemies of life and health.
Keep the fist clenched, release the fist after 30 seconds, and observe the blood return phenomenon.
If the color of the palm quickly returns to its original state within 3 seconds, it means that your blood vessels are relatively healthy, the blood is smooth, and there is no obvious blockage;
If the color of the palm can gradually return to its original state after 5 seconds or even 10 seconds, it means that the blood is not smooth and the elasticity of the blood vessels is not good. Be careful of blood vessel blockage caused by atherosclerosis.
Blood vessel blockage is a very broad concept and a very common phenomenon. As everyone grows older, blood vessels will be blocked to varying degrees.
Once the blood vessels are "congested", it will cause ischemia and hypoxia in various organs and tissues. People with blocked blood vessels generally experience dizziness, headache, chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness, difficulty breathing, limb pain, swelling, tingling, weakness in hands and feet, numbness and other symptoms.
- Overeating
Workers who have endless dinner parties and foodies who are troubled by food all like to overeat. Most of the dishes in restaurants are "delicious" concocted by tricks such as "high oil, high salt, high sugar" and "thick oil red sauce", which are always more meat than vegetarian. It often leads to more and more fat in the blood vessels, which is easy to block the blood vessels.
- Stay up late for a long time
"If you don't sleep at 23 o'clock at night, you will be shameless, and if you don't sleep at 24 o'clock at night, you will die." From the perspective of health preservation, when you stay up late, the body will secrete too many hormones, which will make blood vessels constrict, slow blood flow, and increase viscosity. People who stay up late for a long time have twice the risk of heart disease than normal people. The statement that "staying up late for a long time is equal to chronic suicide" is no joke.
- Lack of exercise
Long-term inactivity will lead to poor blood circulation, and the "garbage" in the blood vessels cannot be discharged, and gradually accumulates on the blood vessel wall, eventually causing blood vessel blockage.
- Bad mood
Science has proven that anger and sadness, negative emotions such as hostility, depression, anxiety, etc. are all "cardiotoxic", and people with high levels of anger are 2.3 times more likely to develop cerebrovascular disease than those with low levels of anger. In contrast, positive emotions can significantly protect the heart and blood vessels.
- Don't leave the cigarette
When smoking, harmful substances such as nicotine, tar, and carbon monoxide in tobacco will enter the blood vessels through the gas exchange between the alveoli and blood, interfere with the metabolism of fat in the blood, and destroy the elasticity of blood vessels. Moreover, passive smoking of secondhand smoke also has similar damage to blood vessels.
- Regular work and rest, combination of work and rest
Often staying up late, the normal biological clock will be disrupted, the endocrine will also be affected, the secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrine will increase, causing vasoconstriction, slow blood flow, and increased viscosity.
Therefore, to protect the health of blood vessels, we must first pay attention to regular work and rest, and try to avoid staying up late.
- Drink more tea
Tea is beneficial to reduce the viscosity of our blood and reduce the chance of lipid accumulation in our blood vessels, which is of great help in reducing our blood lipids. Brew three or five cups a day, and blood lipids will slowly drop.
Chrysanthemum: not only can clear heat and detoxify, but also reduce blood viscosity and prevent blood vessel blockage;
Cassia: clearing the liver and improving eyesight, and can effectively reduce blood clots;
Honeysuckle: can dredge blood vessels and maintain blood vessel elasticity;
Combine chrysanthemum, cassia seed, honeysuckle, burdock root and sweet-scented osmanthus together to make a tea bag soaked in water, persist for one month, and blood lipids will drop quietly.
- Insist on exercising
Exercise can improve blood circulation in our body and melt the fat accumulated in our body. This reduces the viscosity of our blood, thereby reducing blood lipids. We can do some appropriate aerobic exercise according to our own physical conditions, such as playing Tai Chi, swimming, etc., perseverance, and blood lipids will gradually decrease.
Exercise therapy is a slow process that requires us to persevere and slowly turn it into a habit of our own. It can not only lower blood lipids, but also benefit our body without any harm.
