In this fast-paced society, most people tend to overlook the small details of life, and these "little things" can affect our health.
For example, many people have developed the habit of drinking tea casually, feeling that it is harmless to the body.
However, this is not the case, and if you consume too much of certain types of tea, not only will it not bring benefits to the body, but it may become an "accelerator" and accelerate the onset of heart disease.
Today, let's follow Mr. Wang's story and find out.
Mr. Wang, aged 42, is the head of operations of a medium-sized logistics company. As the breadwinner of his family, he spends his days traveling between warehouses in the city, handling cargo transportation and inventory management.
In order to refresh himself, he developed the habit of drinking tea in the car. At first, he would choose some green tea, flower tea, etc., and then gradually turned to more "exciting" black tea, Pu'er tea, etc.
Until one day, Mr. Wang suddenly felt severe chest pain while driving, which almost caused a car accident, but fortunately, someone else called the emergency number in time, and he was rushed to the emergency department of the municipal hospital.
After a series of examinations, the doctor diagnosed Mr. Wang with coronary heart disease and required immediate further examination and treatment.
"According to your test report, there is a narrowing of your coronary arteries and blood circulation is blocked, which may be the cause of your chest pain."
The doctor on duty said to Mr. Wang gently, "However, your physical indicators are not too bad, so if you take appropriate treatment now, you can fully hope to recover your health." "
"However, I have a regular daily schedule and eat three healthy meals, how could I suddenly have such a disease?" Mr. Wang was puzzled.
The doctor reviewed Mr. Wang's medical records and said with some surprise: "You don't have obvious high-risk factors such as lifestyle disorders and high-fat diets, but this is the ...... Do you drink a lot of black tea and pu-erh tea every day?"
"Yes, I have this habit, but it's just for refreshment." Mr. Wang said innocently.
"That makes sense." The doctor nodded, "Studies have shown that the caffeine and phenols in tea, if consumed in large amounts for a long time, not only cannot bring benefits to the body, but will increase the burden on the heart and accelerate the occurrence of arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases." "
Only then did Mr. Wang realize that his "innocent habits" turned out to be the culprit, and that he originally wanted to refresh himself with tea, but not only failed to succeed, but also "self-destroyed the Great Wall".
During his hospitalization, the doctor prescribed Mr. Wang a comprehensive rehabilitation program such as diet control and moderate exercise.
At the same time, the doctor also advised: "I know that many people have the habit of drinking tea, but please be sure to moderate, especially some teas with high caffeine content and deep fermentation, remember not to be greedy."
Otherwise, you may be like you, unsuspecting, and suddenly attacked by disease. "
Under the persuasion of the doctor, Mr. Wang completely quit black tea and Pu'er tea, and switched to light green tea, and at the same time, he also strengthened his daily outdoor exercise.
A month later, his physical condition improved significantly and he was able to be discharged from the hospital to continue his recovery.
Mr. Wang's illness reminds us that the "little things" in life should not be underestimated.
Drinking tea is a traditional habit of the Chinese nation, but over-indulging in some "stimulating" teas may bring a burden to the body and become an "accomplice" to cardiovascular diseases.
We should be vigilant and reasonably control the intake of tea, especially those with a deeper degree of fermentation and high caffeine content.
Only by maintaining moderation can this traditional habit truly become a way of health and not become a harmful thing.
In addition, a person's lifestyle often determines his health condition. If you maintain bad habits such as a disordered schedule and a high-energy, high-fat diet for a long time, it is easy to leave opportunities for various diseases.
Therefore, we must start from the bits and pieces of life, adhere to good living habits, and stay away from various factors that are not conducive to health, so as to truly move towards the road of health.
