Get up in the morning and get sleepy
Sleepy after eating
All day long I was thinking about it
Hurry up and lie down on the bed to sleep
Do you ever feel that way?
If there is
Then pay attention
People who are often sleepy
At the time of inspection
High blood viscosity may be found
CCTV Weibo
so
What are the triggers for high blood viscosity?
Will it develop into a blood clot?
How can it be prevented?
Next
Let's take a look at it
Blood is a red, opaque fluid that flows through the blood vessels and heart. In addition to plasma, there are a large number of blood cells in the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. The content of these cells or the components in the plasma increase, the amount of substances flowing in the blood increases, and the blood becomes viscous.
Increased blood viscosity first affects capillaries. Because capillaries are the smallest diameter of all blood vessels, they are most affected by the viscosity of the blood.
When the blood viscosity of capillaries increases, the oxygen and nutrients carried by the blood cannot be transported to various parts of the body. If cells do not receive oxygen and nutrients for a long time, they will damage or even apoptosis.
After the damage to the blood vessel wall, it acts with cholesterol, triglycerides and other substances in the blood, which will lead to blood vessel damage and then develop into a blood clot.
Healthy people, after waking up in the morning, will feel refreshed, while people with thick blood will feel sleepy, unconscious, sluggish thinking and other symptoms in the morning, and will not improve until they get up and move.
People with thick blood will feel very sleepy after lunch and need to take a nap to relieve it, otherwise they will be sluggish all afternoon, which is a typical symptom of insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by blood thickness.
Middle-aged and elderly people with high blood viscosity, because the blood flow slows down, the optic nerve is not fully nourished, often look at things suddenly become blurred, especially when suddenly twisting the neck, there may be ghosting of things.
People with thick blood are prone to squatting and struggling. After squatting and standing, the amount of blood in the heart and brain decreases, and the symptoms of sudden blackness in front of the eyes and difficulty breathing appear.
Usually always feel tired and weak, feel sleepy all day, all day long, forgetful, always want to sleep, to doubt whether their blood is too viscous.
In addition to finding clues through symptoms, going to the hospital in time to do a blood viscosity test is the most reliable method.
1, eating foods containing a lot of fat, such as meat food and cooking oil, etc., these fats are too late to be absorbed by the body, which will lead to an increase in the viscosity of blood in the body.
2. Eat foods that contain a lot of sugar, such as baking products and fruit juice drinks, etc., these sugars will also accumulate in the blood, resulting in an increase in blood viscosity.
3. When the pressure is too great or the lack of exercise, the residual fat in the blood cannot be burned in time, and blood sugar and cholesterol will accumulate in the blood, which will eventually lead to poor blood circulation and viscous blood.
4. When a large amount of sweating or fever causes dehydration of the body, the water in the blood will also be reduced, and the concentration of substances in the blood will increase, and the blood will become viscous.
5. Substances such as tobacco and alcohol will increase the content of cholesterol and neutral fat in the blood, resulting in blood viscosity.
If you find that your blood viscosity is elevated, then you should start to pay attention to adjusting your original lifestyle and reducing the blood viscosity.
★ Dietary adjustments
Control diet, especially eat less greasy, sugary foods, try to achieve a light diet, to prevent blood viscosity is too high.
★ Exercise regularly
Aerobic training such as jogging or swimming can be done regularly. Exercise can not only release stress and pleasant mood, but also consume the remaining fat in the blood, achieving the effect of reducing blood viscosity.
★ Releases stress
You can't hide negative emotions in your heart, you can make your mood comfortable by brushing drama, talking with friends, walking, playing ball, etc., thereby reducing the viscosity of blood.
★ Replenish moisture
Drinking plenty of water can dilute the blood and increase blood volume. Drinking plenty of water can prevent the blood from becoming viscous, and the recommended daily drinking amount for adults is 1500 to 1700 ml.
Note: People with heart failure, kidney disease and other diseases, the amount of water they drink needs to follow the doctor's advice.
★ Quit bad habits such as smoking and drinking
//////////
Everything is
Easier said than done
Develop healthy lifestyle habits
Exercise actively, eat a balanced diet, and stay away from alcohol and tobacco
Control existing chronic diseases
May everyone's blood be as clear as a mountain spring!
Finally quietly told me,
Smoke, drink, eat sweets
What did you all do today!
