We see patients with cardiovascular blockages at all ages every day, 70 years old, 50 years old, 30 years old, and even 22 years old myocardial infarction patients.
Cardiovascular disease and age are closely related, as we age, our risk of developing cardiovascular disease increases, and the older we are, the more likely we are to develop cardiovascular disease.
In fact, these people who have cardiovascular disease, there are reasons, if we want to before the age of 70, do not have cardiovascular blockage, then we must first do these 9 things:
First, I quit smoking and alcohol
The harm of tobacco and alcohol to cardiovascular disease is clear, and smoking increases atherosclerosis, that is, vascular plaque. Drinking alcohol can raise blood pressure, blood lipids, and aggravate arteriosclerosis.
The more you smoke and the more you drink, the more likely you are to develop cardiovascular disease. So we need to stop smoking and drinking as much as possible, or try to minimize it.
Second, don't have a big belly
Overweight, or obesity, can significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular blockages.
How do we tell if we're overweight? Then to weigh and weigh, calculate the BMI, BMI = weight (kg) / height (m2), if this value is lower than 24, then the weight is normal; if it is 24-27.9, overweight; if the BMI is more than 28, it is obesity.
In particular, abdominal obesity, that is, a large belly and a large belly, this obesity is more likely to lead to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
Third, adhere to the movement
The harm of sedentary inactivity is great, long-term inactivity slows down blood circulation, and more importantly, the three high risks increase, and the risk of arteriosclerosis increases. Inability to exercise cardiopulmonary function. Over time, it increases the risk of atherosclerosis and increases the risk of blockage of blood vessels.
I can communicate with people when I exercise, but I can't sing. It is generally recommended that each exercise be no less than 30 minutes, about 5 times a week, and aerobic exercise is the mainstay, such as running, cycling, jumping rope, jumping exercise, playing ball, climbing, swimming and so on.
Fourth, eat healthy
Eating unhealthily is the most important reason for the occurrence of the three highs and the occurrence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Authoritative studies in recent years, including Xi'an Jiaotong University and the Lancet study, have confirmed that unhealthy diets have led to more deaths from cardiovascular disease, of which unhealthy diets account for about 37% of all causes.
In particular, eating too much salt, not enough coarse grains, not enough fruits, too many saturated fatty acids, trans fatty acid intake, insufficient vegetables, too much red meat, insufficient nuts and milk, etc. Unbalanced diet is the main reason. At the same time, not eating on time, not eating early, ordering takeaway often, not going home to eat, smoking and drinking during meals, etc. Eating details will also increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Therefore, in order to prevent cardiovascular disease, eat healthy meals three times a day, and the food is as diverse as possible, at least 12 kinds of food per day, and at least 25 kinds of food per week.
Fifth, go to bed on time
Sleep is actually charging.
When we go to work, go to school, work, work, etc. during the day, we consume electricity. Only adequate sleep, quality sleep can ensure that the amount of electricity consumed during the day is sufficient at night.
If you stay up late and don't get enough sleep, then you increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The first thing to sleep is to follow habits, that is, your own biological clock.
For most people, it is recommended to sleep 7-8 hours a day, sleep not too early, sleep not too late, and it is more reasonable around 11 pm.
Sixth, the mentality should be good
The health of the human body includes two aspects, on the one hand, various physiological indicators are normal, and on the other hand, mental health.
Studies have found that unhealthy mindsets, whether depressed, depressed, shady, malicious, hateful and other negative energy mentalities, increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.
On the contrary, people with positive, optimistic, sunny, grateful, and other positive attitudes will reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Therefore, in order to prevent cardiovascular disease, we must have a good attitude and be a good person.
Seven, blood pressure standards
High blood pressure can lead to increased hardening of the arteries, which means that long-term high blood pressure can cause blood vessels to become hard and brittle. The metaphor of the image is like the excessive pressure on the blood vessels, which can cause cracks in the inner wall.
Then the blood vessels are not smooth, and it is easy to accumulate some lipid-like substances, that is, vascular plaques. The higher the blood pressure, the more severe the cracks in the lining of the blood vessels, and the more plaques of the blood vessels are produced.
The first goal of blood pressure in adults is to drop to less than 140/90mmHg, and the ideal blood pressure should drop below 120/80mmHg.
8. Blood glucose standards
Long-term increase in blood glucose can lead to an exacerbation of the inflammatory response of the arterial vascular endothelium.
After the inflammatory response of the arterial vessels, the blood vessels harden and more vascular plaques are produced in the inner wall of the blood vessels. Typical diabetes has symptoms of three more and one less, such as eating more, drinking more, urinating more, and losing weight. But not every diabetic patient has a typical three more and one less in the early stage, so it is necessary to check blood sugar to see if there is diabetes.
Blood glucose indicators should be paid attention to, fasting blood glucose, random blood glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin.
Nine, blood lipids meet the standard
Blood lipids, especially after the rise of LDL cholesterol, is prone to produce more lipid-like substances in blood vessels, which is what everyone usually calls "vascular garbage". The higher the LDL bladder, the easier it is to produce more vascular plaques. Vascular plaque is the root of cardiovascular stenosis. The more severe the plaque, the greater the risk of cardiovascular ischemia, and if the plaque ruptures, a blood clot will form, and the blood clot will block the blood vessels.
Therefore, we must control our own blood lipids, control cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, especially LDL cholesterol to meet the standard.
Ordinary people drop below 3.4mmol/L, medium-risk groups drop below 2.6mmol/L, and high-risk groups drop below 1.8mmol/L.
Leading to cardiovascular blockage, not a certain cause, but the above 9 factors caused, we encounter cardiovascular blockage patients in the hospital, basically have the above multiple factors, the above situation is not well controlled, the easier it is to block blood vessels.
Therefore, we do the above 9 points well, which can prevent the vast majority of cardiovascular diseases, thereby preventing new blood vessel blockage!
