How to prevent and maintain heart disease

Chinese medicine believes that "the heart governs the blood vessels and the lung is the main force", which means that the heart and the lung are two adjacent organs in the chest cavity. The heart is behind the front lung, the heart is responsible for promoting blood movement, and the lung is responsible for breathing. This has caused the medical community to study the relationship between breathing and heart. The heart-lung relationship is complex and intertwined, with the following three points: 1. All the oxygen consumed by the heart comes from the lungs, and problems with the lungs directly lead to heart disease. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "heart and lung are homologous", which is the theoretical source of simultaneous treatment of heart and lung. The oxygen consumption of the heart itself accounts for about 20% of the whole human body. If the lungs are sick, the heart is the first to be deprived of oxygen. If there is mild hypoxia for a long time, myocardial contraction will be enhanced and heart rate will be accelerated, which will lead to coronary heart disease. In severe hypoxia, blood pressure and heart rate will drop, leading to myocardial necrosis, heart failure and even cardiac arrest. 2. To treat the heart, "breathing medicine" passes through the lungs fastest and has the best effect. Medical scientists have long believed that pulmonary administration is the best way to treat heart disease. When the blood is pressed out through the right ventricle, it will enter the pulmonary artery and be sent to the alveoli, then breathe through the lungs and enter the heart under the pressure of the lungs. At this time, if the effective pharmaceutical ingredients enter the lungs from the nasal cavity through breathing, they will dissolve into the blood through dialysis, reach the left atrium in about 10 seconds, and be attracted by myocardial cells, thus quickly treating heart disease and dissolving atherosclerotic plaques on coronary arteries. It can be said that treating the heart by pulmonary administration in respiratory medicine is a shortcut to quickly eliminate symptoms and radically cure heart disease. For example, patients with heart disease always carry a heart-saving pill, and they can achieve the purpose of saving lives by smelling it through the nose. This is a typical way of respiratory administration. 3. Patients with heart disease can save and protect the heart by driving the heart power through lung power, and even prevent sudden death from myocardial infarction. When a patient has a heart attack, his heart and lungs may have stopped working. At this time, he can restore his heart by starting lung force. For example, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), in which he presses his chest while giving artificial respiration, is a typical treatment method, which restores the patient's breathing and drives his heart power through the diastolic pressure and systolic pressure of his lungs. In addition, the "heart-saving pill" commonly used by heart patients is to inhale drug gas through the nostrils during a heart attack, so that lung power can be started first and then promoted. Generally, the lungs can continue to move rhythmically for a few minutes, and the heart can be started again, so that the heart can return to work and the patient can be out of danger of death. Jirentang Pharmaceutical, a century-old brand, invented the world's first external specific drug "Bao pericardium" to treat heart disease with "simultaneous treatment of heart and lung". It contains special traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, which can emit aromatic drug molecules into the air, and patients can enter the lungs through breathing. On the one hand, it nourishes lung cells, increases lung function and improves oxygen supply to the heart. On the other hand, drug molecules dissolve into blood in alveoli, circulate along pulmonary veins, reach the heart within 10 second, nourish myocardial cells, dissolve arterial wall plaques, increase cardiac power and blood pumping ability, and achieve the effect of cardiopulmonary synchronous treatment. How to self-discover heart disease? Judging from the palmprint medicine in Huangdi Neijing, as long as the palm square court: crown bridge line appears, it means that the heart function is not good;

When the coronary bridge line and other interference lines form a cross pattern, it indicates that the heart has arrhythmia, such as bradycardia or palpitation;

When the coronary bridge line and the interference line form a "Feng" shape, it means that you have coronary heart disease.

Look at what you say and do, and you will find it early. As the saying goes, prevent diseases early, nip in the bud; It's never too late to treat a disease early. The key to heart disease prevention and treatment is "early". So how to find heart disease at an early stage? That is to say, heart disease often has some superficial symptoms besides familiar symptoms such as palpitation and precordial pain. Pay attention to these premonitory symptoms, and you can find them early and treat them early. These body surface signs include: ◆ Breathing: shortness of breath when doing some slight activities or in a quiet state, but not accompanied by cough and expectoration. This situation is likely to be a manifestation of left ventricular dysfunction. ◆ Face: If you are pale and purple, and your expression is indifferent, this is a dying face in the late stage of heart disease. If the face is dark red, it is a feature of rheumatic heart disease and mitral stenosis. If it is pale, it may be a sign of mitral insufficiency. ◆ Nose: If the nose is hard, it means that the heart has accumulated too much fat. If the tip of the nose is swollen, it means that the heart fat may also be swollen, or the heart disease is expanding. Besides, a red nose usually indicates a heart disease. ◆ Skin: The skin of patients with chronic heart failure and pulmonary heart disease can be dark brown or dark purple, which is related to the long-term hypoxia of body tissues and the decline of adrenal cortex function. The skin mucosa and limbs are blue-purple, indicating that the heart lacks oxygen and the reduced blood protein in the blood increases. ◆ Ear: Patients with heart disease have different degrees of tinnitus in the early stage. This is because the microvascular dynamics of the inner ear is abnormal. When the disease does not cause systemic reaction, the inner ear will receive a warning signal. If there are continuous wrinkles in your earlobe, it is probably caused by coronary atherosclerosis. ◆ Head and neck: If there is superficial tendon protruding from clavicle to earlobe, such as thick little finger, it is probably right heart insufficiency. ◆ Shoulder: The weather is obviously good, but the left shoulder and left arm are sore, which may be coronary heart disease. Hands and feet: the ends of fingers or toes are obviously thick, and the nail surface is raised like a drumstick, which is common in patients with chronic pulmonary heart disease or congenital cyanotic heart disease. ◆ Lower limbs: Edema of lower limbs in middle-aged and elderly people is often a manifestation of venous blood return obstruction caused by cardiac insufficiency. In addition, if you often have palpitations and asthma, you can only relieve it by squatting, which is a unique manifestation of purple clamp heart disease. Pay attention to chest tightness and palpitation. I found that many elderly people lack understanding of some of their symptoms, while some young people pay little attention to symptoms such as chest tightness and palpitation. They often think it has nothing to do with themselves, so they can only endure it. It is these thoughts that delay the best treatment time. There is a 40-year-old college leader who is usually uncomfortable, but he doesn't pay attention to it. As a result, he died suddenly and young, which is a great pity. If he went to see a doctor in time, the result would be very different. Therefore, as long as active treatment, the cure and remission of heart disease is still very optimistic.

Suggested precautions can include: weight control research shows that weight gain 10%, average cholesterol 18.5, and the risk of coronary heart disease increases by 38%; Weight gain of 20% increases the risk of coronary heart disease by 86%, and the prevalence of coronary heart disease in hypertensive patients with diabetes is 1 times higher than that in hypertensive patients without diabetes. Nicotine in smoking cessation tobacco can accelerate the heartbeat, increase blood pressure (excessive smoking can reduce blood pressure), increase cardiac oxygen consumption, vasospasm, abnormal blood flow and increase platelet adhesion. These adverse effects make the incidence of coronary heart disease in male smokers aged 30-49 three times higher than that in non-smokers, and smoking is also an important cause of angina pectoris and sudden death. An experiment conducted by American scientists who gave up drinking confirmed that ethanol has toxic effects on the heart. Excessive intake of ethanol can reduce myocardial contractility. For people with heart disease, alcoholism will not only increase the burden on the heart, but even lead to arrhythmia, affect fat metabolism and promote the formation of arteriosclerosis. Improving the living environment with serious pollution and high noise intensity may induce heart disease. Therefore, improve the living environment, expand the green area, reduce noise and prevent all kinds of pollution. Avoid crowding and going to crowded places. Viral myocarditis, dilated cardiomyopathy, coronary heart disease and rheumatic heart disease are all related to viral infection, and even heart failure is often aggravated by upper respiratory tract infection. Therefore, we should pay attention to avoid going to crowded places, especially in the cold season, so as to avoid infection. A reasonable diet requires a reasonable diet arrangement. Hyperlipidemia, unbalanced diet, diabetes and obesity are all related to dietary nutrition, so nutritional factors are very important from the perspective of heart disease prevention and treatment. In principle, we should achieve "three lows": low calorie, low fat and low cholesterol. Take an active part in moderate exercise. Keeping regular and proper exercise is conducive to enhancing heart function and promoting normal metabolism, especially for promoting fat metabolism and preventing atherosclerosis. For patients with heart disease, according to heart function and physical strength, engaging in moderate physical activity is helpful to improve blood circulation, enhance resistance, improve the function of various organs in the whole body and prevent thrombosis. However, excessive activity should also be avoided. In order not to cause symptoms, the amount of activity should be gradually increased. Rule of life, develop healthy living habits. Live a regular life and be happy, avoiding emotional excitement and overwork.

1, it is forbidden to stimulate diet and drugs: pepper, ginger, pepper, tobacco, wine and a lot of strong tea. Taking caffeine, amphetamines and other stimulating drugs will also bring a burden to the heart, especially when the heart function of patients with rheumatic heart disease is poor. 2. Appropriate intake of salt: Like salt restriction, patients with rheumatic heart disease should eat less sodium-rich foods such as bananas to avoid edema. 3. Drink slowly: When drinking a lot of water, tea, soup, fruit juice, soda or other drinks at a time, the blood volume will increase rapidly, thus increasing the burden on the heart. Therefore, don't eat too many drinks, and it is best not to exceed 500 ml at a time. When you need to drink more water, drink it several times, less at a time and longer at intervals. 4, a small amount of meals. Patients with heart disease should not overeat, and the total heat energy should be ingested 4 ~ 5 times a day to reduce gastrointestinal overfilling and diaphragm elevation after meals and avoid the increase of heart workload. Eat dinner early and lightly, and don't add food or water after dinner. 5. Appropriately limit the intake of protein and heat energy. When heart failure occurs, the daily protein can be controlled at 25-30 grams, and the heat energy is 600 kilocalories; After 2 ~ 3 days, the protein can be increased to 40 ~ 50g, and the heat energy is 1000 ~ 1500 kcal. Protein and thermal energy should be gradually increased after the condition improves, but should not be too high, so as not to increase the heart load. 6, should eat easy to digest food. Blood circulation dysfunction, gastrointestinal congestion and edema in patients with heart disease affect the digestion and absorption of food. Therefore, food should be easy to digest. Start with a liquid and semi-liquid diet, and then switch to soft rice. 7. Adequate vitamins and appropriate inorganic salts, such as vitamin B 1 and vitamin C, should be supplemented to protect myocardium. Supplementing proper amount of calcium to maintain normal myocardial activity. Potassium has a protective effect on the heart, and it will cause arrhythmia when it is insufficient. When using diuretics, besides supplementing potassium, we should also pay attention to the supply of magnesium and zinc.

Many people think that more exercise, less greasy food, and quitting smoking and drinking can avoid the clutches of heart disease. In fact, this practice is not complete, because there are some daily neglected details of life that will also murder your heart. 1, outdoor sports in foggy days. Outdoor exercise in foggy days with the most serious air pollution will block the supply of oxygen in the blood, thus making it easier for blood to coagulate. 2. Smoking with others. If a person is exposed to other people's smoke for 30 minutes three times a week, his risk of heart disease is 26% higher than that of people who rarely smoke passively. 3. Anger will have a great influence on the heart. 4, career first, ignoring decompression. The mortality rate of patients with coronary heart disease with the greatest mental stress is three times higher than that of patients with the least mental stress. Therefore, if you meditate for 20 minutes every day, your anxiety and depression will be reduced by more than 25%. 5. pull a long face all day. Researchers at Harvard University followed 150 healthy men for ten years, and finally found that people who were very optimistic at the beginning of the experiment were half as likely to have heart disease as those who were more pessimistic. 6. Exercise must take a long time. Any regular physical activity can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, even if you only exercise for 5-0/0 minutes at a time. 7. Eat barbecue. Grilled food at high temperature will produce a blood compound called advanced glycation end products, which will reduce the elasticity of cells and increase the risk of heart disease. 8. Fried food. A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine recorded the exercise and nutrition habits of 80,000 women for 14 years. The researchers found that the biggest relationship with heart disease is the intake of trans fatty acids, which is a variant fat that can reduce the content of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and increase the content of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol harmful to human body, and the culprit is French fries. 9. Suppress anger. Suppressing anger will increase the pressure on the heart. If vented, it will make the heart feel more comfortable and reduce the chances of arrhythmia and angina pectoris. 10, lazy all day. People who are lazy all day are 28% more likely to suffer from heart disease than men who often force themselves to do strenuous exercise. 1 1, a fashionable diet plan. People with very large weight fluctuations have much weaker hearts and worse blood flow than those who lose weight slowly and maintain it well. 12, overeating for three meals. The expansion of the stomach wall will increase the pressure on the lungs, lead to the increase of cardiac metabolism and easily induce induced myocardial infarction. Therefore, middle-aged and elderly patients should not overeat every meal, generally in 70% to 80%. Stay away from friends. People who make the fewest friends at work also have the highest heart rate and the most unhealthy blood pressure index, even in emergency times. 14, temporary extramarital sex will increase the risk of heart attack. Doctors at St. Thomas Hospital in London found that 75% of sudden sexual death is related to extramarital affairs, and men who have close relationships with many young women have the greatest risk of death. In the survey of men who have been loyal to their spouses for a long time, doctors found that there is almost no risk of heart attack. 15, plan the work plan for the day before getting up. Blood pressure will soar in the morning. But listening to music can help control blood pressure, thus reducing the possibility of heart attack in the morning. 16, snoring doesn't matter. Half of men suffer from sleep apnea (people used to sleep for up to a minute) and high blood pressure, which is usually caused by high levels of aldosterone in the body. In order to eliminate sleep apnea, we should also lower blood pressure. 17, let the cold and fever go. Cold and heat have a direct impact on heart function, such as cold and fever, systemic arterial oxygen saturation decreased, and the heart works under the condition of relative hypoxia, which is easy to induce arrhythmia. 18. Put your mobile phone in your chest pocket. Men are used to putting their mobile phones in the left pocket of their coats, close to their hearts. Although there is no direct evidence to prove the influence of mobile phone radiation on the heart, it is best not to put the mobile phone in the left pocket of the coat, and it is best to stay away from the body when the mobile phone is turned on.
