"Heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys", the heart is in the first place, from which we can see the importance of the heart. The human heart is like the engine of a car, and when there is a problem with the engine, the car is basically in a state of obsolescence.
The importance of the heart is self-evident, and once the heart stops beating, then life is over. In China, nearly 20 million people are diagnosed with heart disease every year, and the most terrible thing about heart disease is the occurrence of myocardial infarction, which has a very high heart attack and mortality rate. Therefore, patients with heart disease should prevent the occurrence of myocardial infarction.
If your body doesn't have these 5 manifestations, congratulations on your healthy heart!
1. Loss of appetite or diarrhea
According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, regularly skipping breakfast increases the risk of heart disease. A survey of 2,000 people showed that people who regularly skip breakfast are prone to fat accumulation and elevated cholesterol, which are triggers for heart disease.
Breakfast provides 1 to 3 of the body's nutrients, and a chronic lack of breakfast can lead to a lack of nutrients in the heart and increase the risk of heart failure. If there is loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, epigastric distension and pain, accompanied by diarrhea and other gastrointestinal discomforts, it is necessary to be vigilant, which may be a symptom of right heart failure.
As we age, heart function gradually declines, where,"Accelerate"The main causes of heart failure are, emotional agitation, nervousness, cold, excessive and rapid infusion, arrhythmia, and sudden discontinuation of medication.
2. Poor sleep quality
Patients with acute cardiovascular disease may sleep at night, and the person will be gone the next day, the main reason may be sudden cardiac death, and people with a bad heart will affect their pumping function, resulting in ischemia and hypoxia of the myocardium.
Then the patient may be awakened when he sleeps at night, accompanied by symptoms such as sweating and rapid heartbeat, while people with a healthy heart generally sleep more peacefully at night and sleep ***
Studies have proved that more than 45% of patients with heart failure will have apnea during sleep, which can cause suffocation!People with a good heart will have a high quality of sleep, fall asleep faster, and dream less;
People with a bad heart are prone to insomnia or difficulty falling asleep, and at the same time, people with a bad heart are more likely to wake up in the middle of the night, which seriously affects the quality of sleep. Because people with poor heart function are prone to cerebral ischemia, which leads to insufficient blood supply to the brain, which leads to poor sleep quality. If you sleep very well and fall asleep quickly, then your heart is good.
3. Chest tightness and shortness of breath
This is when you suddenly feel suffocated when you have difficulty breathing, or when your breathing rate and breathing speed are abnormal.
Sleep without chest tightness and shortness of breath: There are many reasons for chest tightness and shortness of breath, but the most common is caused by the decline of heart and lung function.
These conditions generally occur at night, during sleep there will be chest tightness and shortness of breath and wake up, and then forced to sit up and adjust breathing, at this time the adjustment will be fine for ten minutes, which is relatively mild. Because the heart is the "engine", when the power is insufficient, it affects the frequency of breathing.
4. Abnormally cold hands and feet, swollen lower limbs
A person with a good heart usually has warm hands and feet when he sleeps, but if he sleeps at night, his hands and feet will be abnormally cold, and his whole body will be cold, which is a sign of heart failure. This is usually due to the blood supply from the heart to the brain and other parts of the body, and the lack of blood supply to the limbs leads to cold hands and feet.
When the heart is not good, or when there is a lesion, the blood flow to the kidneys will be insufficient, or the pressure in the body veins will be too highAs a result, the amount of water excreted from the body decreases, resulting in swelling of the lower limbs. If this happens, it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up, because once it is severe, it may aggravate the process of heart failure!
5. There are no symptoms of precordial pain
People with a healthy heart in general do not experience significant symptoms of pain in the precordial area. However, when the patient has obvious symptoms of precordial pain after exercise or emotional agitation recently, especially when there is squeezing pain, which is relieved after a short rest, then everyone needs to be alert to the occurrence of angina, and the main cause of angina pectoris is due to coronary artery stenosis or blockage, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the myocardium.
So we need to protect the health of our hearts, starting with our diet!
1. You can eat 5 to 10 grams of black fungus。Anticoagulation, prevent vascular blockage. The high fiber content of fungus can stimulate intestinal peristalsis, help with bowel movements, and accelerate the excretion of cholesterol from the body.
In addition, black fungus contains antiplatelet clotting substances, which have good health care effects on arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease and obstructive stroke. Eating more mushroom foods also helps heart health, and fungus is rich in dietary fiber, which has a good effect on lowering blood cholesterol.
2. Eat more coarse grains, vegetables and fruits, fungi and grains, which contain high fiber, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, and water-soluble dietary fiberIt has the effect of excreting sodium, and regular consumption can prevent high blood pressure. Adults should eat one-third of their diet in a day, and they can make some cornmeal multigrain bread at home, or buy some oats as snacks.
Is sleeping well or not being a "weather vane" of the body?
If you can have a very good sleep Xi every day, all the functions of the body will be improved. After entering a deep sleep at night, the various organs in the body will function at different times. The brain and heart can also get better rest, which helps to improve function.
If there is an abnormality in a certain organ, it is very likely that some abnormal symptoms will occur when it is operating on its own, causing the body to be stimulated accordingly, which will cause a series of sleep disorders such as sudden awakening or unsteady sleep.
For people with relatively healthy organs, there is no abnormality when the organs are functioning on their own. The body will not be stimulated, so there will be no sleep problems.
It can be seen that sleeping well or not is indeed a "weather vane" of human health. Especially for people with a healthy heart, there will be some better sleep characteristics when sleeping.
As the saying goes, smile, ten years less. Smiling regularly and keeping you in a good mood is not only good for your body, but also good for your heart. A study in the United States showed that pessimistic heart disease patients had twice the mortality rate compared to optimistic patients
Therefore, having a good mood is the most fundamental way to get rid of all diseases!All diseases are born from anger, anger, and damage to human health, especially the health of the heart!A bad mood can greatly increase the risk of coronary heart disease or arrhythmia. There is one thing to remember: emotions come first, heart disease comes later.
