The blood in the blood vessels can be said to be the most important source of life for us. Once a person loses too much blood, it threatens our health. The components of blood are red blood cells and plasma. Without proper protection, it will be subject to toxin invasion. If the blood vessels are blocked, various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases will follow.
What kind of symptoms will usually appear when blood vessels are blocked?
1. Slow reaction
If blood vessels are blocked, it will affect the body’s oxygen supply, and some reactions will slow down, such as delayed reactions, especially in middle-aged and elderly people.
2. Chest tightness, wheezing
If a thrombus forms in our blood vessels, it will also affect the body’s oxygen supply, leading to systemic hypoxia over time. This will manifest in chest tightness, shortness of breath, wheezing, and even fainting. This is a serious condition, so everyone must pay attention.
3. Walking problems
This situation often occurs in middle-aged and elderly people. If you find yourself having slight limping, stumbling, or slow movement when walking, it is mostly due to blocked blood vessels. If this condition is not promptly treated, it may lead to hemiplegia. The reason for this is that our brain blood vessels are blocked, affecting the nerve function of the limbs, causing walking problems.
4. Skin inexplicably showing various purples, blues, and red patches
In Chinese medicine, it is said that unimpeded vessels are painless, and when there is pain, the vessels are blocked. When blood vessels in the body are blocked, pain often occurs, manifested by red patches on the skin and swelling and pain in the limbs. The reason is that blocked blood vessels and thrombosis affect blood flow speed, leading to swelling, pain, and possibly discomfort. If this happens, remember to seek medical attention promptly.
These three foods are vascular scavengers, insist on soaking in water to drink, and purify blood vessels:
1. Hawthorn
Hawthorn can dissolve triglycerides in the body and reduce blood fat concentration. As a traditional Chinese medicine, it has a good effect on lowering cholesterol and blood lipids. Drinking hawthorn-infused water regularly is very beneficial for blood vessels. It contains a large amount of flavonoids, which can dilate blood vessels, promote blood circulation, improve blood viscosity, and reduce the likelihood of thrombosis.
2. Honey
Honey is a natural “health product” that people often consume in their daily lives. It not only has a good effect on intestinal lubrication and relieving constipation but also helps clean toxins in blood vessels. It prevents the accumulation of blood garbage in the blood vessels, cleans the blood vessels, softens them, and promotes vascular health.
3. Sanqi (Panax notoginseng)
Sanqi, known for its medicinal properties, has recently gained popularity. The saponins in Sanqi can lower cholesterol and fat levels in the blood, improve lipid metabolism, and reduce blood fat concentration. It can also clean up waste in the blood, reduce blood viscosity.
