People with high blood pressure, please do these 3 things well at ordinary times to protect blood vessel health and prevent cerebral infarction!
The first thing is to supplement nutrients
According to an American University research shows that people who regularly supplement with antioxidants have a lower chance of suffering from cerebral infarction.
Antioxidants can resist and eliminate the damage of harmful free radicals to blood vessels, increase coronary flow, improve capillary fragility and deposition of lipids and triglycerides in blood vessels, making blood vessels more “young” Elastic, preventing arteriosclerosis and the onset of cerebral infarction.
Antioxidants must be ingested from food.
The second thing is to control emotions
Under the dual pressure of life and work, many people will appear upset and irritable.
People who often lose their temper are prone to blood vessel problems. When losing your temper, the secretion of adrenaline in the human body will increase, and the blood will also rise accordingly.
Moreover, in the state of rage, the regulation function of blood vessels and nerves will be abnormal, or the cerebral blood vessels will be constricted, which will cause cerebral infarction.
The third thing is to move your wrist
When resting at home, we can hold some objects in our hands, preferably something that can be held, then straighten our arms, and then turn our wrists.
Because there are many acupoints in the hands, regular movement of the wrist can dredge the meridians, promote the circulation of Qi and blood, ensure sufficient blood supply to the brain, and play a certain preventive role.
Two small tests to see if the body’s blood supply is sufficient
1. Lie on your back, take off your shoes and socks, raise your legs 50°, and keep it for 2-3 minutes.
If one leg becomes pale and the other remains unchanged, the blood supply to that leg may be insufficient.
2. According to the first method, after raising your legs for 2 to 3 minutes, get up and sit on the edge of the bed, with your legs drooping naturally, and don’t step on the ground.
If the legs are faintly dark, it is likely that the blood vessels are blocked.
