Human blood circulates in blood vessels. If the blood is too viscous, the blood flow will inevitably slow down. In severe cases, it can affect the blood supply of important organs of the human body, causing heart disease and stroke. Therefore, people can't help but ask: What makes blood sticky? Is there any way to make it "thick and thick"? \x0d\Water is an immediate factor in blood viscosity. As we all know, water is an important substance in the human body. More than 90% of flowing blood is composed of water. Loss of body water caused by heavy sweating, taking diuretics, diarrhea, etc. can reduce blood volume. At this time, the formed components (red blood cells, etc.) in the blood increase relatively, and the blood viscosity naturally increases. Once you drink enough water and your body is replenished with water, the thick blood will be diluted immediately. \x0d\Tangible components are the material basis of blood viscosity. Tangible substances that can thicken blood include red blood cells and proteins in blood. The greater the number of red blood cells and the weaker their fragility, the higher the blood viscosity; the more protein, fat, and sugar in the plasma, the thicker the blood; the influence of the fibrinogen content in the blood on the blood viscosity cannot be ignored. When fibrin When the original level increases, the blood viscosity will increase significantly. \x0d\Non-blood factors that make blood thicker, under the same conditions, some environmental factors can affect blood viscosity, such as high blood viscosity in summer and low in winter; high in the early morning and morning, low in the evening and afternoon; rainy and muggy heat , high when the air pressure is low, low when the wind is sunny; high after a rich meal, low after a light meal; high after diarrhea and sweating, and low after drinking enough water. \x0d\Among these factors, some are related to water balance, some are related to the increase in formed components of blood, and some are related to the operating rules of the human body's biological clock. Understanding these rules will help prevent blood viscosity and prevent related diseases. \x0d\Quick-acting diluent - water The loss of water after a night's sleep and the water consumed when digesting food are all factors related to blood thickening. Scientific drinking water can make the blood thinner immediately. \x0d\Drinking water must first grasp the timing. It is best to drink 200 ml of water after getting up in the morning, before three meals (one hour before meals) and before going to bed. \x0d\You should also drink water with good dilution effect. Salt water will promote cell dehydration and is not recommended; cold water will stimulate gastrointestinal vasoconstriction and hinder the absorption of water into the blood, so it is not suitable to drink; purified water, because it is too "pure", its hypotonic state will cause water to quickly enter the cells, which is harmful to Thinning the blood is also not ideal. The ideal dilution water is boiled water or light tea at 20 to 25°C. Its tension and density are close to those of blood and tissue cells. \x0d\Eat more foods with blood-thinning functions. Medical scientists recommend the following foods with blood-thinning functions: black fungus, onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, strawberries, pineapples, lemons, etc. that inhibit platelet aggregation and prevent thrombosis; foods with similar properties to aspirin Foods with anticoagulant effects include tomatoes, red grapes, oranges, and ginger; foods with lipid-lowering effects include parsley, carrots, konjac, hawthorn, seaweed, kelp, corn, sesame, etc. \x0d\People whose blood is too sticky should have a light daily diet, eat less high-fat and high-sugar foods, and eat more fish, fresh vegetables, fruits, beans and soy products. The above-mentioned functional foods that can thin blood recommended by medical scientists can be eaten according to the situation. You can also take 40 mg of aspirin, once a day; 100 mg of vitamin C, 3 times a day; 50 mg of dipyridamole tablets, 3 times a day; 3 tablets of Chinese patent medicine Compound Salvia miltiorrhiza tablets, 3 times a day. The above-mentioned drugs can improve the function of blood vessel walls, inhibit platelet aggregation and adhesion, reduce blood viscosity, thereby increasing blood flow rate and preventing thrombosis.
