How to prevent stroke

According to Prof. Dr. Pham Gia Khai - Chairman of Vietnam Heart Association, preventing formation and dissolving blood clot is a measure to limit stroke. Accordingly, patients should pay attention and apply this treatment principle.

Stroke is the third most serious disease after heart disease and cancer. According to research results published in the Lancet Medical Journal, in the past 20 years, the number of people suffering from strokes between the ages of 20 and 64 has increased by 25%. People under the age of 75 now account for 62% of new strokes, of which 45% are fatal, and 72% fall into illness and illness.

The study found that in 2010 alone, 61.5% of people were sick and 51.7% died of hemorrhagic stroke, which occurs when a weak blood vessel is broken and the cause It is caused by high blood pressure and unhealthy lifestyle.

Enzymatic Nattokinase in fermented soybeans, a traditional Japanese dish has created a new step in preventing and supporting treatment of stroke.

Professor Pham Gia Khai said that a stroke could occur at any time and is very fatal if not treated promptly. The disease is common in people with risk factors such as hypertension and diabetes. The cause is atherosclerosis, making the vein narrow, easy to cause clots to clog, or fragile vascular walls, causing bleeding. In it, blood clots were identified as the cause of 80% of stroke.

When a blood clot appears, it causes a blockage of blood flow, causing an interruption in blood circulation, causing brain ischemia (cerebral infarction). When the blood is lacking, the brain stops working and dies within seconds to minutes. At this time, patients suddenly dizzy, lose balance, headaches with unknown causes, have reduced vision, speak hard, weak or paralyzed one side of the limbs, paralyzed half of the body . The treatment is only effective maximum within the first 3 hours of the first signs of a stroke.

To avoid the unfortunate consequences of stroke, people with risk factors such as hypertension, unraveling sugar, dyslipidemia, obesity should actively prevent this dangerous disease. Sharing about effective prevention, Prof. Dr. Pham Gia Khai said: 'Studies show that preventing the formation and dissolving of blood clots is the primary measure to prevent vascular accident. Brain'. According to doctors, in addition to implementing a lifestyle, scientific mobilization, reasonable, patients can also use food to help break down blood clots to minimize the risk factors leading to complications. cerebrovascular.

Currently, science has proved that nattokinase enzyme , fermented soybean extract is effective in preventing and destroying blood clots - the main cause of stroke. This enzyme has been included in some products such as NattoEnzym with nattokinase ingredients originating from Japan.
