How long can patients with three highs live

I believe that most people have more or less a certain understanding of the "three highs". The "three highs" mainly refer to the three common conditions in the bodies of middle-aged and elderly people in daily life: high blood pressure, high blood sugar, and high blood lipids. Moreover, these three phenomena will cause serious harm to the bodies of middle-aged and elderly people, so when any of these three phenomena occurs, it should cause attention. So how long can a patient live after he suffers from the "three highs" problem?

The three highs are what we commonly call high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and high blood lipids. If high blood pressure increases suddenly, it may cause extreme harm to life. The growth of other high blood lipids and high blood sugar data takes a process and generally will not endanger life instantly, but it will affect the patient's quality of life. But it is worth noting that these diseases have certain genetic factors, and are also closely related to one's own life patterns and habits. Patients with hypertension should pay attention to long-term blood pressure stabilization. Patients with hyperlipidemia should deliberately choose low-fat foods. Patients with high blood sugar, in addition to careful food matching, should also pay attention to more exercise and more baths to promote blood circulation and the body's metabolic rate. Because the complications of high blood sugar are quite serious, such as diabetic foot.

1. Causes of hypertension

1.1. Genetic factors: 76% of young and middle-aged patients with hypertension have a family history. It often causes lesions in important organs such as the heart, brain, and kidneys and leads to corresponding consequences.

1.2. Unhealthy lifestyle: drinking, smoking, lack of exercise, long sitting time, and high-salt diet.

1.3. Age: The incidence rate tends to increase with age, and the incidence rate is highest in people over 40 years old.

1.4. Body weight: People with a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 24 kg/m have a 3-4 times higher risk of developing hypertension than those with normal weight.

2. Causes of high blood sugar

2.1. Genetic factors: The onset of diabetes is related to racial and familial genetic susceptibility. Genetic factors account for more than 90% of type 2 diabetes.

2.2. Diet and obesity: The cause of diabetes is related to long-term high-sugar, high-fat diet, lack of physical activity and obesity. In obese people, fat accumulates in cells, reducing the sensitivity of tissue cells to insulin and causing blood sugar to rise.

2.3. Mental factors: Long-term mental stress, emotional excitement, great psychological pressure and sudden mental trauma will cause the secretion of a series of insulin-fighting hormones, causing blood sugar to rise.

3. Causes of hyperlipidemia

3.1. Genetic factors: family history of hyperlipidemia.

3.2. Bad living habits: long-term smoking, drinking, high-sugar and high-fat diet, and lack of exercise.

From this, it can be seen that the common causes of the three highs are obesity, genetics or other diseases.
