As soon as the number on the blood pressure monitor is high, many elderly people begin to panic! Some people are in a hurry to eat home remedies, some people are crazy about square dancing, and some people even learn from young people to fast...... Don't rush to toss yourself! The doctor reminds that the most feared thing about high blood pressure is not the high value, but the dangerous operation of these "good intentions doing bad things".
1. Eating health products indiscriminately is more terrible than not taking medicine
1. "Natural blood pressure" trap
Some so-called "plant-based" health products secretly add chemical antihypertensive ingredients, which may cause a sudden drop in blood pressure. There was an elderly man who ate a certain "Ginkgo Biloba Blood Pressure Tea" in a row, and as a result, he fainted in the vegetable market.
2. Risk of vitamin overdose
Excessive vitamin E supplementation may affect the efficacy of warfarin, while vitamin K counteracts the effects of antihypertensive drugs. Nutrition is not candy, so always consult a doctor before eating.
3. Hidden dangers of mixing traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine
Luobuma tea with antihypertensive drugs may cause hypokalemia, and licorice Chinese medicine can cause water and sodium retention. At least 2 hours between doses, do not use tea to deliver medicine.
2. Assault campaigns can be compared to "suicidal depressurization"
1. Strenuous exercise in the early morning is the most dangerous
10-0 o'clock in the morning is the morning peak of blood pressure, and sudden skipping rope and playing badminton at this time may induce cerebral hemorrhage. It is recommended to do Hachidannishiki or take a walk instead.
2. Breath-holding action is unacceptable
When fishing, pulling the rod and moving the flower pot to hold your breath will cause your blood pressure to soar by more than 30mmHg. Remember the "exhale" principle.
3、盲目追求万步打卡
膝关节不好的老人强走万步,可能引发骨关节炎急性发作。戴个运动手环监测心率,别超过(170-年龄)次/分钟。
Three, these eating habits are destroying blood vessels
1. Vegetarian ≠ healthy
Long-term vegan diets may lead to vitamin B2 deficiency, which in turn worsens arteriosclerosis. It is more scientific to guarantee 0 taels of lean meat or 0 eggs per day.
2. Low-salt traps
Suddenly reducing the amount of salt to less than 3 grams per day may trigger hyponatremia. Replace regular salt with low-sodium salt to control blood pressure and prevent electrolyte imbalances.
3. Drink soup to make up for the misunderstanding
Laohuo Liang soup contains a lot of purines and fats, especially for patients with high blood pressure and gout. It is safer to drink seaweed egg drop soup or winter melon and barley soup instead.
Fourth, emotional management is more important than taking medicine
1. The card table becomes a "execution ground"
The mood swings caused by winning or losing mahjong can raise blood pressure by 40mmHg in 0 minutes. It's smoother to play mobile games, but don't sit for too long.
2. Excessive attention to blood pressure values
Measuring blood pressure 2 times a day, and being anxious when you see fluctuations, this "blood pressure anxiety" will form a vicious circle. 0 times a day at a fixed time is sufficient.
3. Concealing the condition is the most dangerous
I don't talk about dizziness symptoms even if my children are worried, and there are too many cases of sudden cerebral infarction before going to the hospital. Prepare a smart bracelet and automatically share abnormal data with your family.
Remember this life-saving mantra:
Antihypertensive drugs can't be stopped, don't believe home remedies;
Exercise should be like slow motion, and the diet should keep in mind the "three buts" (not too salty, not too oily, not too full);
Watching dramas happily every day is more effective than any panacea!
High blood pressure is not the end of the world, but it can really be fatal to lower blood pressure as a demon. Refer this article to the elders who always love to "toss around", what they need is not more treatment, but a smarter way of treatment.
