| 7 misunderstandings about heart disease |
1. Thin people will not have heart disease
In general, fat people's blood pressure, blood sugar and blood lipids are high, so fat people have a high risk of heart disease, so doctors often ask people to lose weight and maintain proper weight. However, people who are physically weak must not be relieved of their vigilance because there are many factors that can cause heart disease, such as excessive hypercysteine in the body, long-term depression or tension in the body, and lack of exercise. These factors and human body shape Little relationship. In addition, diseases such as high blood pressure, high blood sugar and high blood fat are not "patents" of fat people, and thin people will also get these diseases.
2. You can't get heart disease without eating meat.
Many people refuse to eat high-fat meats to prevent heart disease. This is not true. Practice has proved that if people insist on eating only low-fat foods such as vegetables and fruits for a long time, the intake of sugar will be too high, so that the body has to secrete more insulin to help digest the sugar, which will cause a series of Changes, such as high-density lipoprotein and other substances that are beneficial to the human body, reduce the amount of harmful substances such as triglycerides. These changes can damage blood vessels, and the result is the same as hyperlipidemia, which can cause heart disease. It can be seen that people can only prevent heart disease more effectively by following the principle of combining vegan vegetables and combining coarse and fine grains in the diet.
3. Prevention of heart disease is a matter for the elderly
Some people say that children's heart disease is congenital, and only middle-aged and elderly people will have acquired heart disease. This is not all right. Children's heart disease is indeed congenital. Many manifestations of heart disease such as angina pectoris and myocardial infarction occur mostly in middle-aged and elderly people. However, if traced back to the source, many heart patients have had heart disease in children or adolescents. Studies have shown that many heart disease patients have some purple streaks on the inner wall of their arteries during childhood. These purple streaks are the basis for the formation of atherosclerotic plaques in the future. In other words, atherosclerosis in heart disease patients has developed since childhood. Therefore, normal people should pay attention to diet and active participation in physical exercise from childhood to prevent heart disease.
4. Men are more likely to have heart disease than women
It should be said that women who are protected by estrogen before entering the menopause are indeed less likely to have heart disease than men. Therefore, many women have shifted the focus of disease prevention to gynecological and breast diseases. According to medical data, women are more likely to die of heart disease than those who die from gynecological and breast diseases. Especially after menopause, the risk of heart disease is greatly increased in women due to the loss of estrogen protection.
5. There must be a harbinger of pain when heart disease occurs
The survey found that nearly one-third of heart disease patients did not experience pain in the chest and other areas, and the mortality rate of these patients was higher than that of heart disease patients with precordial pain. Experts advise: Women, the elderly and people with a history of heart failure are most prone to "painless" heart disease. Therefore, these people should pay close attention to the non-painful performance of heart attack, such as shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, nervousness, nausea, syncope or excessive weakness, so as to get treatment as soon as possible.
6. Once a person has a heart disease, the treatment and incurable condition will become more and more serious.
Whether a patient with a heart disease will become heavier or worse depends on whether the treatment is scientific. These measures include not only medication but also lifestyle adjustments. To this end, experts have proposed three life treatments for heart disease: 1 heart disease patients can use yoga, meditation, etc. to relieve mental stress and psychological stress, so that the body and mind can be relaxed. 2 heart disease patients should adjust the diet structure, mainly vegetarian, reasonable mix with leek, and want to quit smoking, wine, eat less salt and sugar. 3 heart disease patients should insist on gentle physical exercise such as walking. If a heart disease patient can persist in the above three life treatments, it can effectively prevent the development of atherosclerotic lesions after one year, and even the hardened atherosclerotic plaque can be regressed, thereby greatly reducing the incidence of heart disease. .
7. Those who have a heart attack will definitely have a short life.
According to the data, a research department conducted a physical examination of an elderly person over 90 years old in a region, and found that the elderly with heart disease accounted for 17% of the total number of people inspected. The reason why these elderly people with heart disease can live longer is because with the advancement of modern medicine, the efficiency and cure rate of heart disease treatment have been greatly improved. In particular, with the development of cardiac surgery technology, many heart diseases that were incurable in the past have been treated, which greatly prolongs the lifespan of patients with heart disease. Therefore, patients with heart disease should not be pessimistic. As long as they follow the doctor's instructions and adhere to the correct lifestyle, they can live longer and healthier lives.
In the outpatient work, we often treat patients with angina pectoris. Because of the special importance of the heart to human health, and the pain and tension of the patient during the onset of angina pectoris, patients with angina are very concerned about their severity and often ask how serious their disease is, especially whether they can develop Acute myocardial infarction. Some even said, "How many years can I live?"
