In case of cerebral insufficiency, often eat two things and press one acupoint to promote cerebral blood circulation and prevent cerebral infarction

    In fact, cerebral insufficiency refers to the insufficient blood supply of the human brain in a certain part, which causes the disorder of brain function, which is generally related to cerebral arteriosclerosis. When cerebral insufficiency occurs, it will cause great damage to the body, so what causes cerebral insufficiency? How to prevent and alleviate cerebral insufficiency in daily life?


1. Three major causes of insufficient blood supply to the brain


1. Cervical spondylosis


    Generally, most people basically do not associate cervical spondylosis with insufficient blood supply to the brain, but there are many friends with cervical spondylosis, basically have dizziness and headaches, and the reason why there are these conditions is because the cervical spondylosis compresses some related blood vessels, so it will also affect the blood flow of the brain, and finally lead to insufficient blood supply to the brain.


2. Microthrombosis


    The formation of microthrombosis may also lead to cerebral insufficiency, because the plate of microthrombosis falls off and forms microemboli in the blood, and this microemboli will reach the arterioles with the flow of blood, which will also cause blood vessel blockage, so there will be insufficient blood supply to the brain.


3. Lower blood pressure


    If there is a person with low blood pressure or heart insufficiency, the blood pressure suddenly drops, then the blood flow will be very slow, and the blood supply to the brain will be insufficient, and the decrease in stroke volume will also cause the brain to be insufficient.


2. Eat two things often and press one acupoint to prevent cerebral infarction


Eat two things often


1. Garlic. Garlic has the function of lowering blood lipids, lowering blood pressure and strengthening the brain, because the allicin contained in garlic and vitamin B1 synthesize "allimine", and the effect of "allimine" is 2-4 times stronger than that of vitamin B1, so in the case of enough glucose and vitamin B1, eating garlic can promote the conversion of glucose into more energy to supply the brain, and alleviate the symptoms of insufficient blood supply to the brain.


2. Black fungus: As far as traditional Chinese medicine is concerned, black fungus is sweet, flat, non-toxic, enters the stomach and large intestine meridian, and has the effects of cooling blood and stopping bleeding, invigorating blood and replenishing blood, benefiting the five organs, clearing the lungs and invigorating qi, promoting the intestines and strengthening the stomach, eliminating hemorrhoids and laxatives. Modern medical research has confirmed that black fungus can also reduce blood viscosity, prevent or dissolve blood clots, and alleviate coronary atherosclerosis. Therefore, in clinical and health practice, it has deep value for health preservation and disease prevention. However, black fungus is cold due to its coldness, so Chinese medicine generally pays attention to the compatibility with other ingredients, so the effect is better. For example, adding dried ginger to it can warm the stomach and prevent cold. (Source: Professor Chen Yi, a national famous Chinese medicine doctor)


Press a hole: Jiexi point


    Traditional Chinese medicine believes that stimulating the Jiexi acupoint has the effect of clearing the stomach and dissolving phlegm, strengthening the spleen and stomach, calming the nerves, nourishing qi and blood, relaxing the tendons and activating the nerves, and can effectively promote the blood circulation of the whole body, especially for improving the symptoms of insufficient blood supply to the brain.


   This acupoint is at the junction of the instep and the calf, the depression in the center of the horizontal stripe, usually can stimulate the Xie Xi acupoint to help improve the lack of qi and blood in the brain, during the massage, you can use the thumb to press this acupoint, gradually and slowly force, in the slow release, so a pressure and a release for a cycle, so repeat the massage for 30 cycles.


    In addition, to prevent cerebral insufficiency, you can also start from some lifestyle habits, such as quitting smoking, low-salt and low-fat diet, and exercising frequently, which can enhance the blood circulation of the whole body, which is a good way to improve cerebral blood insufficiency.
