What causes high blood levels?

Many people are unable to donate blood because their blood concentration is too high. So what is the reason for the high blood concentration? For example: high cell concentration or abnormal blood lipids. Many people may think that high blood concentration means high blood sugar. In fact, it is not. Hyperglycemia actually means that the blood sugar value is higher than the normal range, and high blood solubility means that the number of cells in the blood is relatively increased. Usually, high blood concentration is more common among the elderly. So how to solve the problem of high blood concentration? We can start by drinking more water, eating more fruits and vegetables containing vitamin C, paying more attention to a reasonable diet, and the most important thing is to insist on exercising and promoting blood circulation. Give yourself a healthy body. Here are some reasons why blood concentration is too high.

1. Cell concentration is too high

The number of cells in the blood increases relatively. For example, the water content in the body of the elderly is relatively reduced, and the water content in the blood also decreases, so the proportion of blood cells will be relatively increased. As the liquid component in the blood decreases and the solid component increases, the viscosity of the blood will naturally increase.

2. Increased blood viscosity

In addition to red blood cells, there are many plasma proteins in the blood, such as globulin, fibrinogen, etc. When these large molecular proteins increase in number, they often adhere to red blood cells to form a grid, increasing the resistance to blood flow and causing increased blood viscosity.

3. Increased aggregation of blood cells

Cells in the blood should perform functions individually, not aggregate together. When there is some abnormality in the structure of red blood cells or platelets, the red blood cells and platelets will accumulate together, blocking blood vessels and forming blood clots.

4. The deformability of blood cells is weakened

The capillaries in the human body are very thin. The smallest blood vessel can only allow one blood cell to pass through. Moreover, the blood cells have to change their shape when passing through small blood vessels to facilitate passage. When the deformation ability of blood cells weakens, it is difficult for them to pass through small blood vessels, which affects the blood flow rate and thus increases blood viscosity.

5. Dyslipidemia

Since blood circulates throughout the body, when the lipid content in the blood is too high, the blood's own viscosity can change. In addition, increased blood lipids can inhibit fibrinolysis and further increase blood viscosity. Increased blood viscosity is conducive to the occurrence of coronary heart disease and may even induce acute myocardial infarction.
