In 1990, Japanese medical scientists put forward the concept of chronic cerebral insufficiency, which refers to the chronic extensive insufficiency of blood supply to the brain caused by various reasons, causing A series of clinical manifestations of brain dysfunction due to ischemia and hypoxia.
The incidence of chronic cerebral insufficiency is very high. According to statistics, 2/3 of the middle-aged and elderly people suffer from chronic cerebral insufficiency. Insufficient blood supply is a common disease among middle-aged and elderly people. A large number of domestic and foreign medical scientists have also found that chronic cerebral insufficiency has existed for a long time in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease and cerebral infarction.
This means that if the insufficient blood supply to the brain is not treated in time, it may lead to Alzheimer’s disease and cerebral infarction, so cerebral insufficiency has become an invisible killer that threatens the health of middle-aged and elderly people.

Insufficient blood supply to the brain, these “3 signals” are already very obvious, don’t drag it on p>
1. Abnormal mental awareness
If you are always groggy and want to sleep, except for the cause of excessive fatigue, it may be a sign of insufficient blood supply to the brain. In addition to fatigue and wanting to sleep, some people also experience insomnia and personality changes.
For example, withdrawn, taciturn or indifferent, some are multilingual and impatient, and some will appear short-lived Loss of consciousness or mental decline, or even loss of normal judgment, are related to insufficient blood supply to the brain.
If you find that the elderly at home often have abnormal mental consciousness, you must pay attention and seek medical examination as soon as possible. It is caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain.
2. Motor nerve dysfunction< /p>
If the patient suffers from insufficient blood supply to the brain, it will cause the nerves in charge of the motor function of the human body to malfunction, which will cause the human body to suddenly appear crooked and drooling. , Difficulty speaking, slurred speech, aphasia or incomprehensible speech problems.
Additionally, physical impairments such as difficulty swallowing, weakness or inability to move one limb, food Falls, unsteady walking, or sudden falls, and some have limb spasms or jumps.
Everyone must pay close attention to the physical changes of the elderly at home. Be vigilant.
3. Sensory dysfunction p>
Insufficient blood supply to the brain will affect the analysis areas, sensory organs and sensory nerve fibers of the human brain. Numbness in the lips and numbness or foreign body sensation in one limb.
In addition, insufficient blood supply to the brain can also affect people’s vision, and some patients may experience visual acuity In the case of unclear, or even sudden temporary blindness, many people report that they will experience sudden dizziness, spontaneous pain in some limbs, and sudden tinnitus, hearing loss, etc.
If you find the above changes in your body, don’t take it lightly, there are some small details that may become Big problem, seek medical attention as soon as possibleThe essential.

Which conditions are prone to cerebral insufficiency?
1. Substance Abuse
There are many cases of insufficient blood supply to the brain. If you often like to take some hormonal drugs to stimulate the brain, it may cause Insufficient blood supply to the brain.
2, Diabetes
Diabetes patients may also experience insufficient blood supply to the brain. Due to the high blood sugar level of diabetic patients, the blood flow slows down, and the brain sometimes Insufficient blood supply will occur.
3, anemia
Anemia patients also often suffer from insufficient blood supply to the brain. Anemia patients stand up again after squatting for a period of time, they will feel black in front of their eyes, and the whole person cannot stand upright, because the brain caused by insufficient blood supply.
4. Unhealthy diet
I usually like to overeating is also one of the reasons for the lack of blood supply to the brain. People need to take in a certain amount of calories every day to meet their own needs. But if you eat too many calories, you will suddenly experience insufficient blood supply to the brain.
03
How to prevent cerebral insufficiency?
1. Keep exercising
Exercise outdoors can make the human body breathe more fresh oxygen, sufficient oxygen, and help the brain to think quickly, as long as every week Adhere to 3 to 4 times of exercise for more than 30 minutes, the physique will improve, and the function of the cardiovascular system will also improve, which can ensure sufficient blood supply, and can fundamentally control the problem of insufficient blood supply to the brain.
2. Get enough sleep
Nowadays, people are under a lot of work pressure, and they are in a state of high nerve tension every day, and the consumption of brain cells is also large. If you often stay up late at night and sleep for sleep time If it is reduced, brain cells cannot be fully repaired, and it will also lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone must go to bed early and get up early, work and rest regularly, and ensure enough sleep time.
3. Hydration
The transport of electrolytes in the brain mostly relies on water. When the body is dehydrated, there will be headaches, dizziness, and inability to concentrate. Especially in summer, when the weather is hot, people will have a lot of Sweating and losing water will also lose energy, so be sure to add enough water every day, and drink at least 2,000 ml of water per person per day.
4. Nutritional supplements
In order to ensure that brain cells can perform their functions, it is necessary to provide the body with sufficient protein, glycolipids, vitamins and minerals. With adequate nutrition, the brain Normal thinking activities can be played. Do not diet indiscriminately in peacetime, this habit will not only lead to malnutrition, but also reduce the function of brain cells, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the brain.

< span>Reading extension – summer is approaching, obese people pay more attention
< span>The hot summer is coming. Due to the high temperature and dryness, it is the season of high incidence of many diseases, especially for obese people, special attention must be paid to reducing the degree of periodic ischemia of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular.
Because obese people have a lot of fat deposited on the blood vessel walls, there are also a lot of lipid plaques in the blood , It is easy to form atherosclerosis, aggravate the blockage of blood vessels, affect the blood circulation speed in the body, slow down the metabolism, increase the burden on the heart, and reduce the oxygen supply capacity of the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular.
Therefore, obese people must pay attention to changing their eating habits at ordinary times, and only eat 70-80% of each meal to be full. Diet structure can effectively reduce the cyclical cardiovascular and cerebrovascular ischemia problems.
In addition, it should be noted that in summer, people who are overweight must reduce their thoughts and avoid being angry. Inducing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, taking a bath at least twice a day can not only ensure healthy skin, but also relieve stress and bring a good mood.
