In the fast-paced modern life, arrhythmia has become one of the common cardiovascular diseases, and the incidence of central atrial fibrillation (referred to as "atrial fibrillation") is increasing year by year, which has a significant impact on the quality of life of patients. Although Western medicine has made some progress, its *** and ** rates are still problems that cannot be ignored. In contrast, traditional Chinese medicine, with its unique concept and approach, offers another possibility.
Traditional Chinese medicine, carrying thousands of years of wisdom, is not only a tool for disease, but also a way of life to maintain health and harmony. In the treatment of arrhythmia, especially in the field of "atrial fibrillation", traditional Chinese medicine aims to fundamentally adjust the internal balance of the human body by harmonizing yin and yang, dredging meridians, and adjusting the function of viscera, so as to achieve the best purpose. Unlike Western medicine, which directly acts on the heart, Chinese medicine focuses on holistic conditioning and is unique in finding and addressing the internal causes of arrhythmias.
With the continuous progress of modern research methods, many traditional Chinese medicine ingredients have been found to have the effect of regulating heart rhythm and protecting heart function, providing a new choice for patients with "atrial fibrillation". But is the role and potential of traditional Chinese medicine in this field fully recognized and utilized by modern people?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "atrial fibrillation" is mainly caused by the poor flow of qi and blood in the heart and the dysfunction of the heart. The heart is the official of the monarch, and the unimpeded flow of qi and blood is essential to maintain a normal heart rhythm. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) "atrial fibrillation" focuses on reconciling qi and blood and restoring the normal function of the heart, and its unique principle is to find and solve the root cause of arrhythmia. Through syndrome differentiation and treatment, according to the specific condition of the patient, different first-class programs are adopted, such as replenishing qi and nourishing blood, activating blood and removing blood stasis, regulating the heart and calming the nerves, etc., aiming to adjust the patient's physical state as a whole, and then alleviate "atrial fibrillation".
A variety of Chinese herbal medicines have become an important choice for "atrial fibrillation" because of their unique medicinal effects. For example, salvia, wheat winter, prunella vulgaris and other medicinal materials are widely used to promote blood circulation and dispel blood stasis, nourish the heart and calm the nerves, and then improve arrhythmia. These herbs have a good effect on "atrial fibrillation" by improving blood circulation in the heart and enhancing heart function. Modern research has also gradually revealed the active ingredients of these Chinese herbal medicines and their molecular mechanisms for the regulation of heart rhythm, providing a scientific basis for the "atrial fibrillation" of traditional Chinese medicine.
With the advancement of modern science and technology, more and more studies have begun to pay attention to the mechanism of action of traditional Chinese medicine in "atrial fibrillation". Studies have found that certain TCM ingredients can directly act on cardiac electrophysiological processes, adjust the automaticity of the heart, and improve arrhythmia. For example, certain drugs can affect the activity of potassium and calcium channels, thereby regulating the repolarization process of ventricular myocytes and reducing the occurrence of arrhythmias. These findings not only confirm the effectiveness of traditional Chinese medicine in "atrial fibrillation", but also provide the possibility for further development of new anti-arrhythmic drugs.
In addition to medications, TCM also emphasizes the importance of regimens in daily life for the prevention and prevention of "atrial fibrillation". Proper dietary adjustment, regular daily routine, moderate physical activity, etc., are all recommended methods of TCM to nourish the heart and protect the heart. For example, improving cardiovascular health by eating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, strengthening heart function by doing regular aerobic exercise, and preventing arrhythmias by adjusting your mindset and reducing stress.
