Stroke prevention: precursors of collapse, diagnosis, lifestyle, health remedies

One gets the impression that he will never be sick with it. The further, the more cases of heart attacks and hemorrhages and, accordingly, more deaths, especially after. People say: "If I knew where you will fall, I would have spread straws." With regard to this vascular pathology, you can and should know in advance where you will fall, therefore, stroke prevention should become that straw. To deceive a stroke and prevent its blow is the goal of many people: both physicians and those to whom it is "written by nature."

Stroke has acquired epidemic status not only in Russia. The World Health Organization (WHO) is concerned about the state of affairs around the world, because cardiovascular pathology annually claims thousands of human lives, and leaves the survivors disabled. It should be noted that for the most part they are representatives of the able-bodied male population. As a result, the WHO decided to unite "the whole world" and rush to fight the disease without regard to geographic boundaries. In this regard, since 2004 October 29 is considered to be World Stroke Day for the entire planet.

The Day of Fight Against Stroke in Russia is celebrated with the departure of numerous medical centers in Moscow and St. Petersburg to city streets and rural outbacks, whose residents can be examined and consult specialists (therapists, neurologists). In addition, since 2006, Russia has Interregional Relief Fund the patient, after all, it is known what burden falls on their shoulders for caring and a loved one who has survived a vascular catastrophe.

Understand themselves

Still, this pathology has hereditarypredisposition, so you can already calculate something here. To prevent stroke, you should study the factors leading to vascular catastrophe. Of course, there are many of them, such a list, perhaps, not a single disease has. You may not understand the intricacies, but, probably, everyone knows what leads to a stroke:

• Obesity;
• Stress and psycho-emotional stress;
• Bad habits (smoking in particular).

These are the main points, although there are much more aggravating factors, but after all, almost every person knows both their heredity and their diseases, which should be added up.

Some people smile skeptically, referring to the fact that they do not have high blood pressure, and, therefore, there is nothing to fear. Unfortunately, this is not so. the brain can easily happen in a person with stable blood pressure by, because it arises from a blood clot or against the background. Other prerequisites for stroke can play a role, for example:

1. Slow movement of blood through the vessels;
2. Increased;
3. A number of heart diseases;
4. Violation of fat metabolism;
5. Some hematological diseases characterized by increased blood clotting, for example;
6. Age. If women have a heart attack up to 50 - an extremely rare phenomenon, then as decline estrogenic level, in pre- and menopause, in this regard, they begin to "catch up" with men.

What can alert you?

Some people think that since there are no symptoms of an approaching stroke, it means that they do not need to worry, while others, on the contrary, seek and find even where they are not. Both are bad, the golden mean is good. Approach intelligently and purposefully, studying the “enemy” if possible, in order to avoid a stroke without reducing the quality of life.

Having looked for the prerequisites for such a serious illness and discovered though occasionally rising pressure, you should pay attention to this. This is a warning sign for stroke, so taking medications to lower blood pressure will come in handy. And not periodic. It may be necessary to grab a captopril tablet during an attack, but it is also necessary to go to the doctor the next day in order to select medicines for systematic administration.

Arterial hypertension, which can develop from episodic rises in blood pressure, and even added atherosclerosis, should become a signal for action. Because of such signs, hemorrhagic stroke often follows - an insidious disease that poses a direct threat to life.

Obvious precursors of stroke are characteristic of only some types of cerebral infarction.(if we count "small" and), however when a cerebral vessel will rupture, it is difficult to assume and predict, therefore, the prevention of heart attack and stroke should begin long before clear signs of an approaching pathology.

It should be remembered that a stroke occurs not only from pathology in the vessels of the brain, and this disease is by no means isolated, rather, on the contrary, many disorders in the body can lead to rupture of the vessel(hemorrhage), and to it (cerebral infarction).

We start prevention

Unfortunately, it is not often that people think about stroke in order to prevent it. As the saying goes "until the thunder breaks out ...". But fearing a second stroke, surviving patients still begin to look for ways to avoid recurrence. Meanwhile, at risk but for now those who feel safe need the same prevention.

The prevention of cardiovascular pathology consists of the following indicators:

I. Nutrition

Much has been written and said about what can and cannot be eaten. Maybe it would not be worth reminding people who already know everything, but in a nutshell:

II. General health activities

This includes the fight against hypodynamia (physiotherapy exercises), massage of the collar zone for those suffering from cervical osteochondrosis (vertebrobasilar pool), spa treatment with the appointment of various physiotherapeutic procedures.

III. Mode

In addition to the diet, a person trying to prevent a stroke should not forget about the regimen. And not only nutrition:

• Work and rest regime;
• Adequate sleep;
• Evening walks;
• Coniferous baths at night will help to cope not only with the accumulated fatigue, but will also be the best regulators of the psycho-emotional state.

IV. Stroke prevention with folk remedies

It is believed that the newest method is the long forgotten old one. This happened with pine cones, which from time immemorial have treated our ancestors from various ailments. The idea of ​​using pine cones as a cure for stroke belongs to the Americans, who by now have even created bumps in pills. They say that they are in no way inferior to modern expensive medicines, but they instill confidence in the harmlessness due to their natural origin.

Pine cone medicine can be cooked at home, the main thing is to collect suitable fruits.

For infusion or decoction, the cones must be mature, but green (young) and it is better to collect them in early July (for some reason, it is believed that it is better on the day of Ivan Kupala). You can prepare an alcohol solution (5 cones per glass of vodka) or a decoction of 5 cones per liter of water. In both cases, the cones are washed, cut, in the first case, they are infused for two weeks with daily shaking and taken in a teaspoon after breakfast, in the second, they are boiled for 5 minutes and taken in 100-130 grams once a day after meals.

In addition to pine cones, tinctures of horse chestnut, calendula, lemon balm are popular among the people. Such delicious "medicines" as raspberry jam, milk, olive oil help to protect from a stroke.

Prevention from the clinic

Diagnostics

Diagnosis of a stroke involves carrying out or, but this is to determine its type. Such studies done in advance can reveal aneurysm or vascular malformation of the brain, which do not manifest themselves in anything up to hemorrhage, but at the same time CT and MRI will not tell anything about impending strokes of a different etiology.

Cholesterol

Knowing that lipid metabolism plays an important role in the development of vascular pathology, the patient himself can apply for such, in general, simple analysis. The level of total cholesterol, as a rule, is not very informative; you can learn about the formation of an atherosclerotic process from the lipid spectrum by dividing the total cholesterol into fractions. An increase in low-density lipoprotein and in blood serum are indicators that make one suspect a violation of fat metabolism, which leads to the formation atherosclerotic plaques, which…. Etc.

Thrombus formation and pressure

Prescribed for violation of fat metabolism , in this case, they will become drugs for the prevention of stroke and heart attack. In addition, drugs for ischemic stroke are considered (in particular, agents containing acetylsalicylic acid, which prevents the formation of blood clots). And don't forget about blood pressure correction! Regular intake antihypertensive drugs should get into the habit.

Stress

It is better for such people to avoid stresses and nervous experiences, but since this is impossible due to some circumstances, then at least one should protect one's nervous system as much as possible from the negative influence of psycho-traumatic factors by taking soothing drugs (up to tranquilizers and antidepressants).

Weight and blood sugar control

In addition to the listed preventive measures, a sick (or still healthy) person should constantly monitor and control their weight, which will also help prevent stroke.

Bad habits

Patients from the risk group, who have bad habits and do not want to part with them, require the most careful attention. Stroke and smoking, stroke and alcohol ... This is said in all television programs about health, it is mentioned when describing any cardiovascular pathology in medical and popular science publications, it is constantly said to the owner of the habits. Unfortunately, often without any result. But in vain ... After all, exactly these factors significantly accelerate pathological processes, and, consequently, the onset of a vascular catastrophe, which significantly shortens a person's life.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Stroke is considered the third serious illness that kills or permanently invalidates a person. Blockage or rupture of a vessel is the result of an impaired blood circulation in the brain. Previously, stroke in women was considered less common in comparison with the male part of the world's population. But gradually female stroke became a frequent and early ailment.

Stroke in women became younger: acute circulatory disorders began to be observed already at the age of 20. After 40, the chances of falling victim to this disease in men and women are almost equal. To the peculiarities of stroke in women, such risk factors as pregnancy and taking certain birth control pills are added.

The disease in the fair half of the population is more severe, and recovery is slower than in men. Often, after a stroke, women never get out of a wheelchair.

This is a compelling reason to take care of your health and try to prevent this terrible disease. The chances of full recovery are slim. The process is painful and lengthy. Therefore, a pound of prevention would be more appropriate than a pound of cure.

To prevent the disease, you need to know well the features of the disease. All diseases of the circulatory system occur due to several main reasons:

• Unhealthy Lifestyle;
• stress and neuroses;
• the environment that surrounds us.

Compliance with simple rules for women will help maintain health and enjoy a full life until old age.

Overwork, physical or mental, occupies one of the main places in terms of the level of threat to health.

General principles of prevention

The golden rules of nutrition are common truths:

What products will be useful for this?

A person who is moderate in everything is less likely to fall victim to a stroke. Excessive smoking, alcohol abuse, some food addictions, haphazard intake of medications - all this affects the general condition of the body in the most unfavorable way.

Adhering to the principles of proper nutrition, you can sometimes do without pharmacy vitamin preparations.

A well-chosen, balanced menu already contains all the useful vitamins, minerals, macro- and microelements.

List of foods that reduce the risk of stroke:

Intelligent mental activity

Excessive exertion, both physically and mentally, can damage health. But intellectual work, subject to certain rules, can only improve the functioning of the brain.

Such harmless activities as solving crosswords, puzzles, math problems tone the brain. The leading place in terms of the effectiveness of giving tone to blood vessels is the study of foreign languages.

Brain cells must be constantly engaged. It trains memory, improves blood circulation and even rejuvenates the body. Any process of learning something new improves the conductance of neurons.

Medicines

The risk of getting a stroke increases in women who already have certain pathologies:

Drug prevention is aimed at combating the above diseases that can lead to brain damage.

For the prevention of brain diseases, the attending physician prescribes the following drugs:

The dosage of drugs for the prevention of brain diseases is selected only by a doctor, based on the severity of the disease and the individual characteristics of the patient's body. When prescribing drugs, the doctor takes into account the existing contraindications:

The main focus is on lowering blood cholesterol levels and preventing blood clots.

Acetylsalicylic acid, which thins the blood and prevents excess blood clots, is very popular for the prevention of stroke.

Something from traditional medicine

Even before the advent of modern drugs, people successfully prevented the threat of stroke with the help of some simple means:

If there are no contraindications, then in order to prevent stroke, you can sometimes take drugs such as tranquilizers (Phenazepam, Nosepam). They calm and balance the nervous system, lower blood pressure and promote healthy, restful sleep.

Lack of sleep is the enemy of the nervous and cardiovascular systems.

Home healers

Hypertensive patients have long noticed that the seizure weakens if pets are nearby at this time. Animals somehow recognize where and what the owner hurts, and try to lie down on the sore spot.

The presence of a cat or a cat in the house is especially beneficial for the patient: the person calms down after a busy day. Cozy purring of an animal and touching it can relieve acute stress.

The rules for the prevention of stroke in women are simple and straightforward: healthy, nutritious food, moderate physical and intellectual activity and rejection of bad habits. This will not only help avoid a stroke, but will also greatly improve your well-being and quality of life.

There are several effective methods on how to prevent a brain stroke or prevent the disease from recurring. All measures are aimed at improving the patient's well-being and eliminating the causes of development or damage. For effective prevention, it is necessary to determine the causes of the disease and prescribe the necessary therapy.

How to avoid a stroke

In the prevention of stroke, an important role is played not only by the qualifications of medical workers, but also by the efforts of the patient himself. Therefore, at the first complaints indicating a deterioration in well-being, the neurologist, together with the patient, discusses the necessary adjustments and changes that will need to be made in the person's lifestyle and nutrition.

For convenience, a stroke prevention memo is compiled. The doctor will print a copy for the patient if necessary. Preventive measures differ depending on the stage of development of the stroke or cerebral infarction. The gender of the patient also makes certain adjustments.

Primary stroke prevention

There are two types of strokes.

1. Ischemic brain damage is associated with an acute disturbance of the blood supply. Brain tissue atrophies due to constant oxygen starvation. The result is a heart attack or ischemic attack.
2. Hemorrhagic stroke develops according to a similar scenario, only ends with internal hemorrhage due to rupture or permeability of the arterial walls.

Primary and secondary prevention measures are aimed at combating the catalyst for disorders. The effectiveness of therapy is determined by the reduction of symptoms that indicate the development of a stroke.

The following methods are used in primary prevention:

To avoid stroke in women, it is necessary to diagnose the disorder at an early stage. Symptoms of brain damage in female patients are quite unconventional, which significantly complicates the diagnosis.

Secondary prevention of stroke

In some cases, despite all preventive measures, it is not possible to avoid a stroke. Reducing the likelihood of relapse is then paramount.

The European guidelines for secondary prevention of stroke include measures aimed at controlling the main source of the disease. A thorough examination of the victim is imperative, especially if at an early stage the symptoms were not detected or were ignored.

Depending on the results of the study, an individualized program for the secondary prevention of stroke is prescribed, taking into account the characteristics of the patient's condition and the disease that caused the hemorrhagic or ischemic attack.

The main principles of repeated prophylaxis are:

Stroke Prevention Tests

The ideology of the modern prevention system is aimed at preventing primary brain damage. Permanent damage is caused to nerve tissues as a result of a stroke, pathological changes are irreversible.

New technologies of instrumental diagnostics allow detecting violations at an early stage. The following research methods are widely used:

• MRI - helps to identify various types of stroke, as well as determine the cause of ischemic or hemorrhagic lesions. Additionally, angiography is performed - a tomography method that allows you to examine the state of the vessels of the brain. It is carried out with the use of a contrast agent that increases the information content of the study.
• CT is a diagnostic method that is indispensable for diagnosing stroke in the early stages. The advantage of computed tomography is the speed of obtaining results. In terms of information content, CT is inferior to MRI.
• Additional clinical studies. Modern methods and approaches to the prevention of stroke after stroke are closely related to the constant monitoring of the patient's condition. Clinical blood tests are carried out to determine the level of glucose, bad cholesterol and prescribe appropriate therapy.

The use of modern research methods has increased the accuracy of diagnostics. As a result, the likelihood of developing a stroke has decreased by about 10-15%.

What to take to prevent a stroke

International guidelines for the primary prevention of stroke prescribe the use of drugs that prevent the development of stroke:

The National Stroke Prevention Guidelines prescribe regular supplementation with high vitamin C supplements as well as replenishment of iodine deficiencies. It is imperative to adjust your lifestyle and eating habits.

AND strokes do not happen suddenly.
You hardly think about it, but the likelihood of stroke in women 35-64 years old is 3 times higher than in men of the same age. Female mortality from strokes is also higher: according to statistics, 60% of cases end in the death of the patient. What happens to the body during a stroke? In a certain part of the brain, blood flow decreases or stops altogether. This happens because a blood clot blocks an artery or capillary in the brain (ischemic stroke), or a blood vessel bursts in the brain and bleeds (hemorrhagic stroke). In both cases, the cells of the damaged area of ​​the brain stop receiving oxygen and begin to die. Why are women at higher risk of getting sick? One of the main reasons is excess weight, which increases the risk several times. That is why it is very important to monitor blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels, and pulse rate. If your weight is even slightly above normal, talk to your doctor about whether you have a predisposition to stroke. And, if the doctor decides that you are at risk, you need to change your lifestyle and undergo treatment. One of the most serious mistakes is thinking that strokes happen suddenly. In fact, the prerequisites are formed gradually, sometimes over several years. And the patients themselves can do a lot to protect themselves from illness.

Eat foods that are good for your brain.
One of the most effective stroke prevention drugs sold at any grocery store and costing a penny is regular beets. This root vegetable is rich in nitrites - substances that can lower blood pressure. Some researchers believe that beets can improve blood flow to the brain and even stimulate the growth of young blood vessels. So include beets in your diet and follow these simple rules of a healthy diet: eat more vegetables, fruits, fish, lean meats, whole grains, healthy fats. And keep your sugar and junk food intake to a minimum.

Remove the salt shaker from the table.
The habit of adding salt to a finished dish on a plate is one of the most dangerous. Too much salt leads to high blood pressure, which raises the risk of stroke. Most women these days keep a close eye on sugar, but few pay attention to salt. Meanwhile, fast food, canned food, instant food is literally stuffed with salt! Sausages, cold cuts, smoked meats, frozen pizzas and lasagna are foods that we all need to avoid, regardless of gender or age. Try not to exceed the recommended rate of 5-6 g of salt (1 tsp) per day.

Remember the main signs of a stroke.
One possible symptom of a stroke is loss of sensation in the arms and legs, most often on one side. But how to understand whether a person really suffered a stroke or just lay his leg in a dream? In addition, with short-term ischemic disturbances (microstrokes), a person may only complain of weakness and headache. How to figure it out? Remember 4 main signs.
Smile. With a stroke, it turns out to be a curve: one corner of the mouth rises, the other goes down.
Speech. The man speaks slowly, stammering.
Arms. A stroke victim will not be able to raise two arms straight in front of him, one will be lower.
Tongue .-- It looks asymmetrical or sinks to one side.
If you notice at least some of these signs in yourself or loved ones, you need to call an ambulance as soon as possible: if you start treatment in the first three hours after an attack, the chances of recovery increase many times over.

Refrain from hormonal contraception
if you are at risk. Have at least one of your blood relatives had a heart attack or stroke? Are you suffering from high blood pressure? Do you smoke? Have doctors ever diagnosed you with deep vein clots? All these factors, in combination with the use of hormonal contraceptives, can lead to the formation of a blood clot, which can clog the vessel and trigger a stroke. When choosing a contraceptive, be sure to discuss with your doctor a possible predisposition to stroke and quit smoking in any case.

Don't throw your head back
longer than 2-3 minutes. This blocks the vertebral arteries that supply blood to the brain, and this can lead to a stroke. Remember this in the hairdresser when they wash your hair, and do not agree to "sit for a few minutes by the sink while the mask is absorbed." In some cases, the blood supply can be disrupted, even when a person watches fireworks or works in the garden for a long time with their head thrown back.

Stay calm - your life depends on it.
Chronic stress, which leads to increased blood pressure, is most dangerous for health. If you’re on edge all the time, having a noisy relationship with your family every day, feeling nervous at work, and feeling unhappy can increase your risk of stroke. Chronic stress, day after day, weakens the body, provoking inflammation and increased secretion of the hormone cortisol, which leads to cell damage. Be mindful of your state of mind for physical health benefits.

This article will focus on how to properly prevent cerebral stroke with folk remedies.

A large number of synthetic drugs have been created by pharmacists to prevent diseases of the cardiovascular system. However, exposure to artificial ingredients often gives many side effects, which sometimes bring even more harm to the body than benefit.

How to protect yourself as much as possible from possible acute disorders of cerebral circulation? There is an answer, and it is very simple: it is enough to change your lifestyle very slightly in order to minimize the risk of illness.

Stroke Prevention Nutrition

Note!

The main causes of acute cerebrovascular accident are vascular clogging and cardiac dysfunction. Therefore, by eliminating factors detrimental to the body, very good results can be achieved.

As you know, a person consists of those elements that he uses with food, water and air. And their uncontrolled intake can provoke significant pollution of the body.

It is not at all necessary to rush to extremes and give up your favorite foods forever, but adherence to the schedule and established norms will allow you to cleanse yourself without much spending both money and time.

For example, a decrease in fatty foods in the diet will significantly reduce blood cholesterol, and a low intake of sodium chloride (NaCl) will help normalize vascular tone, because sodium is part of their walls and is directly involved in smooth muscle contraction.

A large number of foods affect the work of the heart: some stimulate, others depress. Proper nutrition can normalize the function of this most important organ, which significantly reduces the risk of stroke. In addition, many substances have an indirect effect on cerebral circulation and increase the resistance of neurons to a lack of oxygen.

Protein food

The human body is designed in such a way that a lack of essential elements can lead to a fatal failure. Proteins, which have different structures and compositions, are essential for maintaining good health. But they all contain amino acids, of which exactly 20 are required for normal functioning.

Note!

However, some of these compounds are not synthesized inside the body - there are also irreplaceable ones coming from plant and animal food. Paying attention to the quality of your nutrition, you can easily make up for the lack of necessary amino acids.

1. Tryptophan strengthens and balances the nervous system and, according to some studies, even slows down aging. Contained in dried apricots, figs, bananas, nuts, cottage cheese, fish and turkey meat.
2. Phenylalanine is involved in the synthesis of excitatory hormones - adrenaline and norepinephrine. It is present in meat of domestic animals, eggs, fish and dairy products.
3. Lysine contributes to the strengthening of neurons and good thinking, even in old age. It is found in large quantities in oatmeal, corn, legumes, nuts and cocoa, as well as in poultry.
4. Leucine increases the resistance of nerve cells to oxygen starvation and activates brain activity. Contained in liver, buckwheat and fermented milk products.
5. Methionine normalizes the concentration of cholesterol, which reduces unnecessary clogging of blood vessels. It is present in the yolk of eggs, fish, legumes, cabbage, carrots, buckwheat, melons and watermelons.

Unsaturated fats

Numerous studies have proven the harmfulness of obesity, in which body weight increases so much that high blood pressure becomes chronic and the heart is increasingly malfunctioning. Excess weight is acquired by a person usually due to excessive consumption of fatty foods, but this fact does not at all imply a complete rejection of lipids.

Nutrition for the prevention of stroke includes many foods that can provide the proper level of intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which are instantly involved in metabolic processes and are practically not stored in reserve.

The most important representatives of this class of compounds are complex high-molecular structures under the general name Omega-3. These fatty acids are not synthesized in the body, but they are actively involved in metabolism. Their lack often provokes a shift in the metabolic balance, which in most cases causes obesity.

Biochemists include the following compounds as Omega-3 acids:

1. Linolenic acid(a lot in flax seeds).
2. Eicosapentaenoic acid(a lot in red fish).
3. Docosaescaenic acid(a lot in olive oil).

The effect of Omega-3 on the human body has been studied by scientists over the past decades. As it turned out, these compounds can significantly lower blood cholesterol levels, which is one of the causes of high blood pressure.

Note!

The high price of red fish can scare off many people looking to improve their health. However, do not despair - Omega-3 is also found in ordinary herring, which nutritionists recommend to consume at least 2 times a week.

Residents of the Mediterranean rarely suffer from acute impairment of blood flow to the brain, largely due to the frequent consumption of olive oil. Laboratory tests have shown that this product contains a large amount of Omega-3, so including it in the diet will also help prevent stroke.

Vitamins for Stroke Prevention

Vitamin E

In clinical practice, this element is often used to reduce the severity of the consequences of an already existing disease. However, American scientists have convincingly proved in their studies that regular consumption of vitamin E almost completely prevents the risk of stroke.

By blocking enzymes that by their activity provoke the accumulation of toxic lipids, vitamin E significantly strengthens neurons and helps to improve nerve conduction.

In nature, this compound is present in many foods:

• sea ​​fish;
• vegetable oils (especially a lot is contained in palm oil);
• eggs;
• meat;
• liver;
• milk.

Vitamin C

Statistics show that the risk of stroke is reduced by almost 25% in people who regularly consume vitamin C.

Chocolate

Although chocolate is not officially included in the list of products that prevent stroke, a lot of documentary evidence convinces us that regular consumption of it reduces the risk of acute disturbance of blood flow in the brain by almost a third.

Cruciferous vegetables and roots

Plants of the cruciferous family have natural components that can not only slow down the formation of atherosclerotic plaques, but also destroy them. Nutritionists advise to eat various salads based on ordinary white cabbage, turnips, radishes and horseradish.

Stroke prevention with folk remedies

For strengthening the heart muscle and blood vessels, both individual herbs and whole collections have long been used. Although many people are skeptical about the treatment in this way, preferring pills and injections, but time-tested and research-tested recipes have proven to be effective.

Stroke prevention with folk remedies does not conceal any great secrets and consists in the regular use of tinctures and decoctions, which, by their action, normalize blood pressure - the main cause of the disease.

Valerian and Hawthorn

1. For its preparation, they take one part of hawthorn and valerian, grind and fill it with seven parts of vodka.
2. It is necessary to insist the medicine for 2 weeks in a dark place, then strain and take 20 drops daily.

Monastery tea

Regular consumption of tea according to the monk's recipe helps to strengthen the nervous system and reduce blood pressure.

Although the composition of the drink is not a secret, it requires proper preparation:

1. Half a glass of rose hips and 10 g of elecampane root are taken as a basis.
2. The mixture is poured into a 5 liter saucepan, poured with boiling water and cooked over low heat.
3. After 3 hours, 20 g of oregano and St. John's wort are added, and rosehip roots and black tea - 1 g each.
4. They languish for another hour.
5. Tea is allowed to be drunk at any time and without restrictions, and used herbs should not be immediately thrown into the trash - you can make a drink from them one more time.

Citrus with honey

The well-known effect of vitamin C is widely used by the people for the prevention of stroke.

1. To prepare the product, take a couple of lemons and oranges, cut into slices and pass through a meat grinder.
2. The resulting gruel is poured into a glass jar and 2 tablespoons of honey and a small pinch of cinnamon are added.
3. All this is mixed and infused during the day, but not in the refrigerator, but in a warm place.

This mixture will last for about a week, if you observe the dosage: 1 tbsp. l. 2-3 times a day.

Treatment after a stroke with folk remedies

Many recipes are effectively used for the rehabilitation of patients who have had an acute cerebrovascular accident.

Treatment after a stroke with folk remedies is quite simple, but often requires care and meticulousness in the preparation of ingredients and preparation of medicines.

Pine cones

In pine forests, you can find a sufficient number of cones, however, it is necessary to collect only those that contain young seeds. The usual time for picking is early autumn, but during the summer it will not be difficult to collect the 5 buds needed for the recipe.

1. The buds are crushed and sprinkled with alcohol, although vodka can also be used.
2. The mixture should be infused for two weeks, but it must be shaken daily.

After the required period, the tincture is filtered and consumed in a teaspoon several times a day.

Medicinal herbs

1. When used correctly, celandine decoction will help rehabilitate a person who has suffered a stroke. To prepare a drink, take 1 tbsp. l. plants and pour 1 glass of boiling water, then insist for 2 hours. Celandine is a poisonous plant, so you need to take it very carefully, starting with 1 tsp. and gradually increasing to 2 tbsp. three times a day. The course of treatment is 1 month.
2. After a stroke, many patients have impaired speech, which can be restored with sage broth. For this, 1 tbsp. l. the crushed plant is poured with 100 g of water and boiled for half an hour, after which it is infused for the same amount of time. Consume 50 g three times a day.
3. The result of a stroke is often paralysis, which will help get rid of thyme tincture. 50 g of crushed dry plant is poured into a half-liter jar and alcohol is added to the brim. After 2 weeks of infusion, the liquid is used to rub the paralyzed parts of the body.
4. A well-proven juniper decoction, for the preparation of which the leaves of the plant are boiled for 20-30 minutes and insisted for 4 hours in a thermos. The resulting liquid can be used not only for ingestion, but also for rubbing.

Sports can help prevent stroke

A sedentary lifestyle gradually reduces the load on the heart, which begins to contract intensively even at rest, and small capillaries, due to the lack of normal blood flow, narrow their lumen, as a result of which it develops
