The brain is an important organ that controls other parts of the human body, and only when the brain is healthy will the human body be more energetic.
However, cerebral insufficiency is very common, and most of them occur in middle-aged and elderly people between the ages of 50 and 75.
Once the conditioning is not timely, the brain is in a situation of hypoxia and ischemia, which is easy to induce corresponding cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as sudden cerebral infarction or Alzheimer's disease.
Why is there a lack of blood supply to the brain? It is mainly related to the hardening of the arteries in the brain.
When our blood pressure decreases, the stroke volume decreases and the cerebral blood supply is insufficient; When blood viscosity increases, blood flow becomes sluggish and cerebral blood supply is insufficient; When a blood clot is present, there is also a local insufficiency of blood supply to the brain.
What happens if the blood supply to the brain is insufficient?
1. Sleep groggily all day long
For example, lethargy, sleepy all day long, is not caused by excessive fatigue, but is a precursor to insufficient blood supply to the brain.
Blurred vision, or even sudden temporary blindness; There is a sudden feeling of dizziness; spontaneous pain in the extremities; Sudden onset of tinnitus, hearing loss, etc.
3. Suddenly I can't remember anything
Some people will have a temporary loss of consciousness, sudden forgetfulness, or mental decline, or even loss of normal judgment, for example, if you ask him to draw a clock to indicate 10:10, he will think for a long time and finally can't draw correctly.
4. Numbness on one side of the face or limbs
This is because the cerebral blood supply is insufficient, which affects the sensory organs and nerves of the brain, often manifested as facial numbness, tongue numbness, lip numbness, numbness or foreign body sensation in one limb, and more specifically, unsteady holding of things, unsteady gait or sudden falling.
5. Suddenly the mouth is crooked and drooling
This type of omen is the most common and is somewhat similar to the precursors of a stroke.
This is because the cerebral blood supply is insufficient, causing the nerves responsible for the body's motor function to malfunction, and the common manifestations are sudden crooked mouth, drooling, difficulty speaking, slurred speech, aphasia or slurred expression, and difficulty swallowing.
Maybe the cerebral blood supply is insufficient, what should I do?
First of all, the dietary therapy method is recommended by doctors, especially the elderly with chronic diseases, and the dietary therapy supplement is both mild and effective.
On our table, there are indeed some foods that can promote brain circulation, and we may wish to pay attention to eating more of them.
In particular, vitamin C, vitamin E, anthocyanins, lycopene and other substances can help scavenge free radicals and reduce their damage to blood vessels, thereby helping to reduce the deposition of lipids on the blood vessel wall to ensure adequate blood supply.
Tomatoes Promote blood circulation
Tomatoes represent lycopene vegetables, lycopene can help remove free radicals and reduce their damage to blood vessels, thereby helping to reduce the deposition of lipids on the blood vessel wall, dredging blood vessels, and cleaning up blood garbage. This is a good way to alleviate the lack of blood supply to the brain.
Tomatoes can be eaten raw, stir-fried, and made into soups. It is recommended to make soup with tofu or mushrooms, and it is best to make soup with eggs, and do not stir-fry at high temperatures.
Garlic promotes blood circulation
Garlic is a flavor-enhancing vegetable, garlic has a very powerful effect, stir-fry is inseparable from it, sterilization is inseparable from it, blood pressure and blood lipid lowering are inseparable from it, and anti-cancer is also inseparable from it.
Not only that, garlic is rich in vitamins and amino acids, which can effectively alleviate the lack of blood supply to the brain, provide nutrients to the brain in time, and alleviate other diseases.
It is recommended to eat mushrooms often for cerebral blood supply, dredge blood vessels, and do not numbness or dizziness in hands and feet.
Eating mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, mouth mushrooms and other mushrooms has very good nutrients for improving cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems and promoting blood supply to the brain.
For example, mushrooms contain a lot of unsaturated fatty acids, which can esterify cholesterol, reduce the content of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, reduce blood viscosity, and improve blood microcirculation, which is beneficial to protecting cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels.
In addition to mushrooms, foods rich in unsaturated fatty acids include olive oil, fish, nuts, yogurt, milk, etc.
Doing these 3 small actions often can quickly improve the lack of cerebral blood supply and improve sub-health.
Start from the top of the neck and rub it downwards to increase blood circulation in the neck and open up the blockages in the neck, not too hard to avoid damaging the skin. Do this 30 to 50 times. Relax your neck well and finally twist your neck gently.
After the neck is relaxed, we need to shrug our shoulders, keep our upper body straight, and lower our shoulders upwards to the highest point. Perform 30 to 50 shrugging movements.
What does a shrug do? It can accelerate the blood circulation of the carotid artery and let the blood flow in the neck to the brain, which is equivalent to a pumping effect.
The empty gripper is also very simple, open the five fingers, open to the maximum, and then clench the fist tightly, hold it for 1 second, and cycle the action of opening, clenching the fist, opening the fist, and clenching the fist ....... 30 to 50 times, it is best to do it every morning after getting up, the effect is better.
There are three steps to improve the lack of blood supply to the brain, the first step is to rub the neck and rub the neck, the second step is to shrug the shoulders, and the third step is to empty the gripper, these three actions are carried out together for 5 minutes, once a day, which can enhance the blood supply to the brain, promote the blood circulation of the body, and make your body become very good.
Health Principles to Promote Blood Circulation
Go to bed early and wake up early; Appropriate exercise, such as brisk walking, etc.; Be sure to eat breakfast, preferably light food, not greasy and spicy food.
To promote blood circulation, in general:
To be far three white (sugar, salt, lard), nearly three black (black sesame, mushrooms, black rice). From the perspective of nutritional value, four legs (pigs, cows, sheep) are not as good as two legs (chicken, duck), two legs are not as good as one leg (mushroom), and one leg is not as good as no legs (fish). Eating kelp and river fish regularly, fish oil can reduce the rate of brain cell death.
