There are three factors that contribute to a man's rapid heart aging
1. Men have less estrogen defense than women. It was found that high levels of estrogen in women can improve the elasticity of blood vessels, reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels, and thus protect the heart;
2. Men eat more high-fat food, have bad habits such as smoking, drinking and staying up late, which will have a negative impact on the heart;
3. As the pillar of family, men often bear more pressure than women. Long term mental tension will affect the regulation of central nervous system, increase heart load and accelerate aging. Clinically, young and middle-aged patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, men are significantly more than women.
To delay heart aging, men should start from the following aspects: first of all, pay attention to exercise. Since the age of 40, male heart began to accelerate aging, and their willingness to exercise decreased, especially after the age of 45. At this time, we should pay attention to moderate exercise, but it is not recommended to carry out vigorous sports such as basketball and badminton. We recommend relatively slow aerobic sports such as fast walking and jogging. Take jogging as an example, you can choose to do it on the treadmill. If you have less exercise before, you should pay attention to step by step. You can only run 1-2km at the beginning, 2-3 times a week, and then gradually increase the amount of exercise every 2-4 weeks. Do not run more than 10km each time, and pay attention to the heart rate change displayed on the treadmill. If the heart rate is too fast, slow down gradually and rest properly.
Secondly, regular physical examination is needed. If there is a problem of too high blood lipid, it can be adjusted under the guidance of doctors, and statins can be taken according to the doctor's instructions. Usually pay more attention to their own physical state, if there are chest tightness, suffocation and other symptoms, timely medical treatment.
Thirdly, we should keep a good diet and living habits, eat more spinach, tomatoes and other vegetables, drink more milk and eat less fried food.
Finally, we should pay attention to the psychological adjustment. Men aged 30-40 have more family and social pressure. A survey shows that men with higher positions and education are more likely to have heart problems. If insomnia, irritability, communication patience, etc., we should start to pay attention to self-regulation. We should give 50% of our energy to return to our families, communicate with our families and friends, and work out a positive life plan, such as going to a movie every few months, going on a tour, etc.
Just because a man's heart ages fast doesn't mean that a woman's heart will always be young. After menopause, the estrogen in women's body is greatly reduced, which will speed up the aging of the heart and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. At this time, we should pay attention to changing our living conditions, such as weight control, non-smoking, more exercise, pay attention to diet, etc. Many menopausal women with atypical symptoms of heart disease, such as upset, sweating and other symptoms, are often mistaken for menopausal syndrome, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. Heart disease is mostly caused by decades of accumulation. Both men and women should keep their hearts when they are young.
