Where does a person’s aging begin? Wrinkles? Memory? Physical strength? No! It’s actually the blood vessels! Hidden in our body’s blood vessels, once they begin to “aging”, it may lead to the decline of various systems and organs throughout the body with it. Blood vessels an old, the whole body is followed by the old! 5.18 is the vascular alert line If you want to know more about your blood vessels, please go to do a lipid first. If the total cholesterol exceeds 5.18 mmol/L and LDL-C (low-density lipid cholesterol) is ↑, it means that your vascular health has been “red light” and you need to prevent diseases. These things make the blood vessels grow old fastest 1, eat a lot of fish and meat chicken, duck and fish are high-calorie, high-fat food, eat more can lead to too much cholesterol and fatty acids in the blood. These things attached to the deposition on the blood vessels, will cause atherosclerosis. 2, always like to go to the restaurant people in their thirties and forties often socialize outside, restaurant dishes with “high oil, high salt, high sugar” and “thick oil and sauce” concoction out, resulting in more and more fat in the blood vessels, easy to block the blood vessels. 3, always stay up late 11 pm to 4 or 5 am, is to ensure that the liver metabolism time. When staying up late, the cardiovascular biological clock will be disrupted, resulting in excessive secretion of adrenaline and norepinephrine in the body, so that vascular constriction, slow blood flow and increased viscosity. 4, smoking A large amount of statistical data shows that 80% of patients with lower limb atherosclerosis occlusive disease have a long-term smoking habit, and more than 90% of patients with thrombo-occlusive vasculitis have a history of heavy smoking. Cigarettes produce structural damage through the arterial wall, bringing forward the aging process of human blood vessels by 10 years. 5, sedentary on holidays, weekends, many people will “sit” on vacation, playing mahjong and cards and playing board games. I do not know long time fixed a posture sitting, easy to cause venous compression, the formation of lower limb venous thrombosis. 6, drinking without restraint in many places without wine, but drinking too much alcohol, blood vessels are prone to lose elasticity, hardening, hypertension. Heavy drinking may also trigger aortic coarctation, once ruptured, life is at risk. 7, exercise less long-term non-exercise, the garbage in the blood vessels will gradually accumulate, the formation of atherosclerotic plaque “untimely bomb”, but also affect the capillary blood supply, and may be detonated at any time. These eight tricks to make blood vessels younger 1, two or two fruits per day A seven-year follow-up of 500,000 Chinese adults found that eating two or two fresh fruits (equivalent to an apple or orange) per day can reduce cardiovascular disease mortality from heart attacks and strokes by 1/3. Fruits are rich in potassium, antioxidants and active compounds, and low in sodium, fat and calories, which can effectively reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease death. 2, eat two cloves of garlic every day The allicin contained in garlic is known as the scavenger of blood vessels. Whether you suffer from hypertension, diabetes, or the general population, consuming two cloves of garlic a day has the effect of assisting in lowering blood pressure, dilating blood vessels, and lowering sugar. 3, drink mixed grain porridge Drink a bowl of mixed grain porridge every day to help protect blood vessels. The red, purple and black epidermis of mixed grains is a good source of anthocyanins. In barley and oats, there is also a wealth of beta glucan. These substances are beneficial to the prevention of coronary heart disease, help control blood cholesterol and protect blood vessels. 4, drink some green tea Green tea can reduce the level of cholesterol and triglycerides in the body. In addition, green tea also contains the special effects of catechol, which has the effect of preventing blood oxidation, preventing blood pressure, blood sugar, so that blood circulation more smoothly. 5, drink no more than 1 two liquor per day In fact, clinical medicine does not have “a small amount of alcohol to prevent cardiovascular disease”, so do not advocate people who do not like to drink alcohol. For people who like to drink, men can only choose one kind per day: white wine 1 two (50 grams) or wine 2 two or beer 300 ml. Women cut in half on this basis, pregnant women can not drink alcohol. 6, do vascular gymnastics “vascular gymnastics” that is, with cold water to rub the body or cold water bath. When the person’s skin contact with cold water, skin vascular contraction, a large amount of blood is driven into the viscera and deep tissue, so that the visceral vascular expansion; a little stop after the skin vascular expansion, a large amount of blood flow from the viscera to the body surface. This repeatedly a Shu and a contraction, as if doing a vascular gymnastics. Vascular gymnastics can make blood vessels more elastic and prevent cholesterol deposits on the walls of blood vessels. Cold bath can be carried out from the summer, with the temperature and water temperature gradually reduced, the body’s ability to protect against cold is gradually improved, and in the winter can be used freely. 7, laughing 15 minutes a day As the saying goes, laugh a smile, ten years less. Frequent laughter from the heart, cardiovascular health is extremely beneficial. A Japanese study showed that: in watching funny comedy, blood vessels will expand and elastic; and in watching serious documentaries, blood vessels will contract. Heartfelt laughter, and the duration of 15 seconds or more, can drive the brain to produce endorphins, expand blood vessels, reduce the inflammatory response of the blood vessel wall. 8, often stretch two hands crossed in front of the abdomen, from the chest to the top of the head stretch like lifting weights, the waist will be brought up, so several times. When the body is at rest for a long time, or work too long, muscle tissue within the veins will be relaxed, and stagnate a lot of blood, so that the circulation of blood is reduced. Stretch a lazy back, will cause a strong contraction of most of the muscles in the body. In the continuous stretching action, the stagnant blood is driven back to the heart.
