In recent years, due to the reversal of daily routines and unreasonable eating habits, the blood vessels have gradually become hardened and their elasticity has naturally decreased. Therefore, more and more people are prone to myocardial infarction, stroke and other diseases.
hardening of blood vessels has a great impact on our health. It will cause our blood circulation to be unsmooth, and even risk suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease.
In order to maintain normal blood vessel function, you should pay attention to the development of good living habits. Many people fall into misunderstandings in the process of caring for blood vessels. If unreasonable behaviors damage blood vessel function, it will be difficult for the body to maintain health
Vinegar is a common seasoning in our lives. Some people will love vinegar very much. When eating, they cannot do without vinegar. They think that adding some vinegar food will taste very good and will increase appetite. However, some people almost don’t touch it because they don’t like this taste
01
Eat some vinegar appropriately. What are the benefits for the body?
Promote digestion
Vinegar contains volatile substances and amino acid , etc., which can stimulate the brain nerve center , promote the secretion of a large amount of digestive fluid, and enhance digestive function.
Control blood sugar
Studies have shown that eating quantitative vinegar can delay the gastric emptying speed after meals, alleviate the intestinal absorption of glucose , inhibit endogenous glucose production, control the blood sugar content after meals, and avoid fat synthesis caused by high blood sugar content after meals.
sterilization
vinegar not only softens blood vessels, but also has a sterilization effect. In fact, if we eat more vinegar in our intestines, we can kill the bacteria in our intestines.
Sometimes when children have stomachache, they may have roundworms and other things in their stomachs. At this time, giving children a sip of vinegar can relieve stomachache.
weight loss
Studies have also found that vinegar has a weak effect of inhibiting fat absorption and can also accelerate fat decomposition, so it is helpful for preventing obesity. Vinegar can be added appropriately to dishes, but it is unnecessary to deliberately eat jealous food or drink vinegar.
promotes calcium absorption
The acetic acid in vinegar can effectively dissolve nutrients in food and promote the full absorption of calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients in food.

A cup of "vinegar" every day can soften blood vessels and prevent blockage. Is it true or false? The article reveals the truth
vinegar is a fermented sour liquid condiment, mostly made of fermentation of glutinous rice, sorghum , rice, corn, wheat, as well as sugar and wine. The main ingredient of vinegar is acetic acid, which is reasonably consumed as a seasoning and can stimulate appetite and digest food.
There are problems with blood vessels and blockages because the blood does not flow through, which are composed of calcium and fat. What people call softening of blood vessels is to drink vinegar to soften or even dissolve the plaques in the arteries.
But this is just people’s simple understanding and self-conception that drinking vinegar will not have any effect on softening blood vessels.
In the external environment of the human body, vinegar can dissolve calcium substances, but this mechanism of action does not work in blood vessels and blood.
is very simple because vinegar cannot enter human blood vessels. On the contrary, drinking vinegar directly may cause damage to the mouth, esophagus, and gastrointestinal tract. Because acetic acid is corrosive, drinking a lot of vinegar directly without any food will cause damage to the esophageal mucosa and gastric mucosa.

rumors about blood vessels, have you heard of
rumor 1: Drinking water to clear blood vessels
Many people say that if you want to keep blood vessels unblocked, you can replenish more water every day. In fact, the speed of atherosclerosis in most people is related to long-term smoking, drinking, intake of high-calorie foods, and lack of exercise. It is difficult to achieve the preventive effect by simply replenishing water. Although replenishing water can improve the body's circulation and metabolism ability and accelerate the excretion of harmful substances in the body, it cannot achieve the effect of softening blood vessels.
Rumor 2: Eating vegetarian food can delay blood vessel aging
Studies have shown that factors that cause blood vessel problems are indeed related to high-fat and high-calorie diets, but it does not mean that eating vegetarian food can make blood vessels younger. On the contrary, if you only eat vegetarian food, the human body will not be able to obtain the protein and fat you need for a long time, which will easily lead to cholesterol imbalance.
and related experiments have also found that if you do not eat meat and protein for a long time, it may also increase the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Rule 3: Red wine can soften blood vessels
This is a relatively old rumor. Many people have heard of this statement since they were young and have always believed it. Today, Pharmacist Wang wants to tell you that red wine cannot soften blood vessels!
The reason why there is such a saying is that red wine contains resveratrol , which is a polyphenol antioxidant, but the resveratrol content in red wine is very small, and the resveratrol consumed by normal drinking is far from reaching the effective dose, so drinking red wine cannot play a role in preventing cardiovascular diseases. On the contrary, it will hurt the body.
04
If you want your blood vessels to be permeable, you might as well do this
Quit smoking and quit drinking
Smoking is completely harmful and has no benefit to our health. If you smoke for a long time, it can easily increase the burden on blood vessels and even cause a large amount of metabolic garbage to be deposited in the blood vessels. It is not difficult to be smoothly excreted from the body.
Regular drinking will also put pressure on the cardiovascular system, which may lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as thrombosis, cerebral hemorrhage , and blood vessels will become harder and harder.
Control of weight
Obesity is the main cause of cardiovascular disease. Controlling weight can reduce risks and avoid vascular sclerosis. Therefore, in life, obese people should reduce their weight, and people with normal weight should maintain a healthy weight index.
Healthy diet
If you want a healthy blood vessel, your diet must be a healthy, comprehensive and rich diet. The general principle is low salt, low fat, low sugar. Simply put, we need less salt, less oil and less sugar for three meals a day. Excessive three flavors may aggravate atherosclerosis, aggravate vascular waste, and increase the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
exercise
exercise is a convenient and effective way to reduce blood lipids . It is recommended to exercise as much as possible in the afternoon or evening, or you can also choose the intensity of your exercise according to your age and physical condition, so that you can keep your blood lipids normal. If you persist in exercise for two or three months, I believe you can achieve good results in reducing blood lipids.
