How to check blood viscosity

As we age, our bodies age, and our blood vessels become older and our blood becomes thicker. If we don't pay enough attention, it may develop into a series of fatal diseases such as coronary heart disease and cerebral stroke. As we all know, any disease can be avoided or even cured as long as more attention is paid in the early stages. Moreover, the blood in the blood vessels cannot be seen with the naked eye, so many people want to know how to check blood viscosity. Let us now learn how to check blood viscosity!

1. How to observe the viscosity of your blood through your hands

1. First look at the color of your palm. The color of a normal person's palms should be light pink. If you find that your palms are reddish, you need to pay attention, because this just shows that your blood is slowly starting to become viscous.

2. When your palms turn red, your blood starts to become viscous, but if your palms turn purple, it means that the blood viscosity has become very serious.

3. People with red palms and purple fingertips, who also have cold hands and feet and are prone to numbness, are not just suffering from a problem of blood viscosity, but have already developed into cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease. Therefore, you must pay more attention and guard against sudden death and myocardial infarction or cerebral infarction at any time.

4. People with inward-looking nails often have more severe blood viscosity. Linear depressions will appear on the surface of the nails. This condition is related to blood vessels and is caused by poor blood circulation due to blood viscosity.

2. How to improve blood viscosity

1. Don’t eat too much

In order to prevent excess fat and sugar from accumulating in the body and making the blood viscous, do not overeat. Also, try to limit snacking.

2. Proper exercise

If you regularly perform light exercises that do not put a burden on your body, such as walking and swimming, it will help to circulate blood throughout the body, thus improving blood viscosity. However, after exercise, you will lose a lot of water, which can easily cause the blood to become viscous, so don’t forget to replenish water in time after exercise.

3. Release stress

If you are stressed, you should get rid of it as soon as possible by various means, such as listening to music, playing games, playing ball, taking a walk, laughing, talking to friends, etc. You should make yourself feel cheerful and free of burden every day. This will not only prevent the blood from becoming viscous, but also prevent sub-health.

4. Take a comfortable bath every day

In a hot bath at 38 to 41 degrees, the physical and mental fatigue of the whole day will be washed away, and the blood circulation will become smooth, which will dilute the viscous blood. However, be careful not to take a bath that is too hot suddenly, otherwise you may easily get blood clots, and there may also be a risk of myocardial infarction and cerebral stroke.

5. Hydration

The first thing is to grasp the opportunity. It is best to drink 200 ml of water after getting up in the morning, before meals (1 hour before meals) and before going to bed. Second, you should drink water that has a better dilution effect. The ideal water should be boiled water or light locust flower honey water at 20℃-25℃, whose tension and density are close to those of blood and tissue cells.
