From the age of 30, in order to 80 years old, we must take good care of the heart The survey results of death due to disease in China show that heart disease death is the second most common cause of death after tumor. And the most common cause of death among heart diseases is coronary heart disease. Many people will ask what causes coronary heart disease? The most important cause is atherosclerosis of the arteries (coronary arteries) that supply blood to the heart as we get older. After 40-50 years of use of blood vessels, the walls of the tubes are overloaded with high blood sugar and high blood lipids resulting in the formation of atherosclerotic plaques. Due to high blood pressure, the walls are overloaded with force for years, causing thickening of the walls, which eventually leads to narrowing of the blood vessels supplying blood, causing ischemia and lack of oxygen to the heart muscle, resulting in myocardial necrosis. The terrible thing about coronary heart disease is that the sudden onset and sudden ischemia of the heart, just like a fast moving car, suddenly the oil circuit is blocked and the engine will suddenly stop, often leading to sudden death. Many famous people have died suddenly due to sudden onset of coronary heart disease without prior prevention. First of all, we must know that coronary heart disease is caused by atherosclerosis, which in turn is a disease of many causes, many of which are closely related to our material and spiritual life. Moreover, coronary heart disease is an old age, group disease, all people who are older may develop it, in other words, everyone who is older should be concerned about their cardiovascular, cerebrovascular. It should also be known that under the current medical conditions, coronary heart disease is impossible to cure, and once diagnosed with coronary heart disease, lifelong medication and life prevention are required. Modern life puts people under great physical and mental stress. Compared with the past, our material standard of living has been greatly improved, people began to eat large fish and meat, a large mouthful of smoke, push a glass of wine, forget about the days of light meals. I do not know, it is the light meals, coronary heart disease in the past is not so terrible. Now, the term coronary heart disease appears more and more frequently, people who do not pay attention to the hygiene of material life, should be vigilant and early prevention. The richness of material life and the obvious decline in the quality of spiritual life is another characteristic of our society. People’s daily mental stress is great and sometimes exceeds their mental capacity. In this case, if there is a foundation of coronary heart disease and it is not prevented and treated, the vascular load of the heart will suddenly increase and the level of harmful hormones in the blood will rise, causing the rupture of the original vascular plaque and the formation of thrombus, which will block the coronary vessels and lead to sudden onset of coronary heart disease. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the hygiene of material and spiritual life in modern life, to prevent sudden onset of coronary heart disease and to reduce the attacks of coronary heart disease, and to take good care of the heart from the age of 30. The first step to prevent and protect the heart is diet control and exercise. The ideal diet is a low-salt, low-calorie diet. Of the proteins, fish is best, egg white protein, followed by vegetable proteins such as soy protein. Change & ldquo; heavy mouth & rdquo; bad habits, eat less salty things, eat less salty food, cooking less salt. Busy again also to maintain appropriate exercise, really can not find time to exercise, walking to and from work is also a good way to exercise. Insist on the good habit of walking after meals. The second step to prevent and protect your heart is early detection and early treatment. At the risk age (40 years old for men and around 50 years old for women), have an annual physical examination. If you find chest discomfort, especially if it is related to exercise, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to have an examination to clarify the diagnosis. If coronary artery stenosis is found, it should be treated as soon as possible. Currently, about 70% of patients with coronary artery disease (angina pectoris, myocardial infarction) are treated with interventional therapy (stenting), which is non-invasive, less invasive, and can be discharged after 3-5 days of hospitalization. Nowadays, the rapid development of medical technology and highly sophisticated medical devices have made this technology more and more perfect, allowing more patients to benefit from this treatment. For milder patients, medication is used to prevent aggravation of coronary stenosis. It must be kept in mind that coronary artery disease follows you for life, so it is important to adhere to the medication for life to prevent treatment.
