If you want to prevent coronary heart disease, remember 4 sentences that I advise you to keep in mindHello, I'm Dr. Wong Wing Fai.

Coronary heart disease is a condition in which atherosclerosis causes ischemia of the heart, which in turn leads to angina. Coronary heart disease, like other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, is mostly caused by poor lifestyle and dietary habits, so the following 4 sentences are recommended to keep in mind.

First, to prevent and treat coronary heart disease, we must quit smoking and limit alcohol. Smoking and alcohol abuse are known to be the main culprits of atherosclerosis, and smoking can cause vascular lesions, such as hardening of the arteries and high blood pressure. Long-term alcohol addiction can cause changes in the heart, reduce the elasticity and contractility of the myocardium, and cause problems such as the accumulation of fatty substances in the blood vessel wall and the narrowing of the lumen.

Second, to prevent and treat coronary heart disease, it is necessary to control waist circumference. The thicker the waist circumference, the more visceral fat there is, and the higher the risk of coronary heart disease. If the waist circumference of men is more than 90 cm and the waist circumference of women is more than 80 cm, you need to be highly vigilant.

Third, to prevent and treat coronary heart disease, you have to strengthen exercise, and walking 6,000 steps a day is a good choice. Many studies have confirmed that the best form of exercise to support the heart is walking. Walking around the house, going up and down the stairs, ventilating in front of the house, and going to the farmer's market to buy something are all good walking exercises, and as for the amount of exercise, it is advisable not to be flustered and short of breath.

Fourth, drugs**. There are two main types of drugs that unclog blood vessels, one is nitroglycerin, such as nitroglycerin tablets, etc., the main effect of this type of drug is to dilate coronary arteries and inhibit platelet aggregation. The other is antiplatelet drugs, such as aspirin, which can prevent the adhesion, aggregation and release of platelets, and prevent the formation of blood clots.

The formation of all diseases is related to the usual bad habits, so people with coronary heart disease must treat the disease correctly, quit bad habits, and minimize the diseases that endanger our health.
