Coronary heart disease is a common disease among middle-aged and old people. From the point of view of Western medicine, coronary heart disease is formed due to the obstruction of the lumen of the blood vessel by coronary artery atherosclerosis, which leads to functional changes (spasm) of the coronary artery, thus leading to myocardial ischemia and hypoxia. And from the Chinese medicine, coronary heart disease belongs to the category of chest paralysis, heart pain, true heart pain, etc. Its onset is due to the internal deficiency of positive qi, phlegm, stasis, stagnation of qi, cold condensation and caused by the heart veins closed obstruction or impassability of a disease. Chinese medicine treatment of coronary heart disease, it can be said that there have been thousands of years of history, the formation of a number of unique theoretical system, from the ‘treatment of the disease’ point of view to justify coronary heart disease, is a popular medical topic in recent years, specifically, can be divided into three parts. The first part of the first prevention before the disease From the current point of view, coronary heart disease has four major characteristics: First, it is a typical common and frequent disease of middle-aged and elderly people , the second is that the onset of the disease is closely related to lifestyle, the third is that this disease is controllable and preventable, and the fourth is that the onset of the disease is rapid and the mortality rate is high. So, what kind of people? What physique is prone to coronary heart disease? From the Chinese medicine point of view is phlegm-dampness, damp-heat quality, blood stasis quality, qi deficiency quality of the physique, and susceptible to the crowd for men over 35 years old, hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, family history, there are the “three highs”, long-term smoking, alcoholism, less movement, and there is mental stress, neurological depression, oral contraceptives, or menopausal women. In daily life, how to maintain health to prevent coronary heart disease? Chinese medicine first emphasizes the need to regulate the mood – regulating emotions, smooth qi, light heart. Ancient book: “Qi sparing, qi and blood and adjust, balance of yin and yang, the disease from?” Secondly, pay attention to the usual diet. Deng Xuguang pointed out that eating too much will inevitably hurt the stomach and intestines, and excessive salt intake, smoking and alcoholism, hunger and satiety, eating too greasy and too sweet are not good for the body. What is favorable to eat? Vegetables that are good for curing coronary heart disease include: celery, carrot, white radish, tomato, cucumber, bitter melon, peanut rice, garlic, shiitake mushrooms, cecropia, kelp, purple beads of vegetables, and fruits that are good for coronary heart disease: apples, hawthorns, kiwi, pineapples. “And coffee, wine, sugar, strong tea, cream, chocolate, fatty meat, animal offal, animal brain, coconut oil, cuttlefish, squid, mussels, snails, crab yolk, egg yolk, etc., all of these should be eaten sparingly, which is not good for the heart.

There is also to be based on the season to health, disease prevention and health should be in line with the law of nature in the spring, summer long, autumn harvest, winter, in line with the law of the time to health, and strive for people and the world are intertwined and harmonious. The general principle of the four seasons of health: spring and summer Yang, fall and winter Yin. From the coronary heart disease health, we should pay attention to the summer to protect the heart, the summer Yang Qi is the most vigorous easy metabolism, to make the body Qi fluent, venting freely to show an open heart. The second part of the disease prevention and treatment of coronary heart disease, first of all, we must be able to learn to recognize coronary heart disease. There are many early signals of coronary heart disease, including: fatigue or nervousness, the sternum or precordial area of boring pain, or tightness pain, to the left shoulder, left upper arm radiation, lasting 3-5 minutes, after resting on their own; physical activity, chest tightness, palpitations, shortness of breath, resting on their own; sports-related headache, toothache, stomach pain, leg pain; forceful defecation, panic, tightness of the chest, shortness of breath, or chest pain and discomfort; full meal, Chest pain, palpitation when watching a thriller or in the cold; sudden chest pain, palpitation, dyspnea when sleeping; lying down at night, feeling chest tightness and breathlessness, to lie down with a high pillow, or immediately sit up, stand up to relieve; hearing the sound of gongs and drums or other noises will be panic, chest tightness; repeated pulse irregularities, unexplained tachycardia or bradycardia. When one of these phenomena occurs, it is necessary to early examination and treatment to confirm whether the disease. “How to recognize the severity of coronary heart disease?” Tightness in the chest, when the chest and pain, or pain in the anterior region of the heart, or even chest pain through the back, shortness of breath and gasping, can not sleep peacefully, for the cardiac vein paralysis due to; chest tightness and pain is not timed, more fatigue triggered, the condition is light; chest tightness and pain in a timed or static in the onset of the disease, the condition is more serious; chest tightness and pain, pain in the heart along the hand of the Shaoyin cardiac meridian in the direction to the scapula, the upper arm radiating, the condition is more light and shallow; if the pain is issued in the heart outside of the chest and moved to the heart, the condition is more If the pain originates outside the heart and chest and moves to the heart, the condition is more serious; if the pain in the heart and chest is sudden and great, or even persistent, accompanied by sweating, cold limbs, white face, purple lips, hands and feet green to the joints, and the pulse is slight or junction, then it is a symptom of critical condition.

The third part of the disease after the prevention of recurrence There is a close relationship between aging and coronary heart disease, with age, the incidence of coronary heart disease is bound to gradually increase. According to Chinese medicine, ‘the kidney is the foundation of the innate, and the spleen is the foundation of the innate’, the qi of the spleen and kidneys plays a key role in human aging, and weakness of the spleen and kidneys is an important factor in aging, therefore, strengthening the spleen and benefiting the kidneys is the root of treating coronary heart disease.
