Scientific Chinese New Year · Health Chapter | Eating Too Oil and Too Full? During the Chinese New Year, we must also guard against the "three highs"

2024-02-14

The Spring Festival is the most important holiday in the hearts of all Chinese people, and it is also a happy moment for family reunion and enjoying delicious food. However, if you want to eat healthily, you need to be careful. If you eat too much oil or too much, be careful of the "three highs". What are the "three highs"? The "three highs" we often refer to are the three most common risk factors for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, namely hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. The "three highs" not only attack each other, but also often cooperate with each other, so comprehensive prevention and treatment is the most effective strategy. Hypertension is currently the most prevalent and harmful type of disease, and it increases the overall risk of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, renal, and vascular complications and death. By lowering blood pressure, complications such as stroke, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and renal insufficiency can be effectively prevented or delayed. In terms of treatment, based on improving lifestyle, antihypertensive drugs should be given according to the overall risk level of hypertensive patients, while intervening in correctable risk factors, target organ damage, and coexisting clinical diseases. Generally, hypertensive patients should decrease to<140/90mmHg; Tolerable patients and some high-risk and above patients can further reduce to<130/80mmHg. Patients with hyperglycemia diabetes have a higher risk of coronary heart disease. Glucose control emphasizes the comprehensive control of multiple metabolic cardiovascular risk factors through a healthy lifestyle and drugs. Diabetes patients should choose targeted hypoglycemic drugs and combinations according to their own conditions and blood sugar characteristics, monitor blood sugar and glycosylated hemoglobin, and strictly control blood pressure and blood lipids, because diabetes insulin resistance is also one of the causes of hypertension. Elevated blood lipids, especially low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, are a direct risk factor for atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease, and cerebrovascular disease. Risk assessment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease for patients with hyperlipidemia: for patients with low and medium risk, when lifestyle intervention is strictly implemented for 6 months, the blood lipid level cannot reach the target value, drug lipid-lowering treatment should be considered; Patients at high risk or above need to undergo medication treatment while monitoring whether they can achieve the corresponding blood lipid target values. How to have a healthy diet during the Chinese New Year? As is well known, the "three highs" are closely related to diet. It goes without saying that high blood sugar and high blood lipids are also closely related to diet. Therefore, in order to prevent the "three highs" during the Chinese New Year, the first thing to pay attention to is healthy diet. Eat less salt to prevent high blood pressure. Excessive consumption of sodium salt can lead to an increase in blood pressure. Among hypertensive patients, a portion belong to salt sensitive hypertension, and reducing salt intake can significantly lower blood pressure. For most hypertensive patients, excessive intake of sodium salts may also lead to increased blood volume, sympathetic nervous system activation causing endothelial damage, and ultimately leading to elevated blood pressure. Therefore, it is important to eat less salt in the prevention and treatment of hypertension. Research has shown that reducing salt intake can lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients; The World Health Organization recommends gradually reducing the daily salt intake per person to less than 6g and increasing potassium intake,
