After the weather turned colder, the number of cardiovascular outpatient visits in major hospitals continued to rise, and most of them were "old patients" with heart disease. According to relevant statistics, the incidence of cardiovascular diseases in winter is 50% higher than that in summer, and the mortality rate is 33% higher than that in summer. Therefore, we middle-aged and elderly people must maintain their cardiovascular health in winter.
Specifically, I will share with you these 3 "half hours", that is, the first.
1. Walking for half an hour in the morning can help exercise the body, promote the metabolism of the whole body, help discharge toxins from the body, enhance physical fitness, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, and more importantly, it can improve the oxygen tolerance of the myocardium, increase lung capacity, improve cardiopulmonary function, promote blood circulation, and reduce the incidence of hypertension and thrombotic diseases
Clause. 2. Taking a half-hour nap at noon can help patients with hypertension control their blood pressure, even if the blood pressure is only reduced by 2 mm Hg, it can effectively reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart disease by about 10%.Clause.
3. Walking for half an hour in the afternoon or after dinner not only promotes intestinal peristalsis and helps digestion, but also has the effect of controlling blood sugar, improving the body's sensitivity to glucose, thereby helping to control blood sugar levels. At the same time, light physical activity can increase the basal metabolic rate, help burn more energy, and can promote blood circulation and contribute to cardiovascular health.
In winter, we regularly follow these three "half hours" every day to maintain the body, which is very beneficial to cardiovascular health.
