What to eat for cardiovascular stenosis?

Patients with cardiovascular stenosis need to pay attention to the fat and cholesterol intake in their diet, otherwise it may cause blood vessel blockage and threaten their lives. If you want a healthy body, you also need to have a healthy diet. You can take more vitamin C.

1. Control cholesterol intake. Studies have shown that people with high cholesterol have a 5 times higher incidence of coronary heart disease than normal people. Therefore, patients with cardiovascular diseases should eat less high-cholesterol foods such as animal brains, offal, egg yolks, and crab roe. Cholesterol intake should be controlled below 200 mg to 300 mg per day.

2. Control the quality and quantity of fat intake. Saturated fatty acids can increase blood cholesterol, while polyunsaturated fatty acids can lower cholesterol, so the intake of saturated fatty acids such as lard and beef tallow should be controlled in the diet. Fat intake should be strictly limited to no more than 30 grams per day, or less than 15% of total calories.

3. Eat more foods containing vitamin C, such as vegetables and fruits. Vitamins can increase blood vessel elasticity and protect blood vessels. Eat frequent meals, avoid eating and drinking too much, and do not eat too much at dinner, otherwise it can easily induce acute myocardial infarction.

4. Diet therapy guides patients to improve their eating habits while removing the cause of the disease and taking drug treatment. The diet should be light, eat more fresh vegetables, melons and whole grains, eat less greasy and high-fat foods, such as animal oils, offal, fatty meat, fish roe, egg yolks and high-fat milk powder, eat more onions, soybeans, mung beans, peanuts, ginger, corn, celery, kelp, spinach, dates, etc. which have the effect of lowering blood lipids.
