“人与动脉同寿”,这是19世纪法国名医卡萨尼斯的一句名言。意思是说,人的动脉在不断硬化阻塞,最后当重要脏器(心、脑)梗塞坏死之日,也就到了人的寿终正寝之时。故有人形象地把血管比作“生命的蜡烛”。目前世界上每年有800～1000万人死于动脉硬化所引起的心血管病和脑卒中。人们只知道惧怕癌症,“谈癌色变”,其实,癌症每年仅夺取500万人的生命,动脉硬化才是人类的第一号杀手。那么,怎样才能保持血管的“年轻”呢?美国心血管专家最近指出,虽然血管随着年龄的增长会自然衰退老化,但只要注意科学饮食,改进膳食结构,加强体育锻炼,并养成良好的生活 “People and Arteries Have the Same Life,” is a famous saying of the famous French scientist Cassnis in the 19th century. The meaning is that people’s arteries are constantly hardening and obstruction, and finally when the vital organs (heart, brain) infarction and necrosis of the day, also came to the end of human life. Therefore, some people vividly compare blood vessels to “candles of life.” At present, 800 to 10 million people die from cardiovascular diseases and stroke caused by atherosclerosis each year in the world. People only know that fear of cancer, “talk about cancer discoloration,” In fact, cancer seizes only 5 million people each year, life, atherosclerosis is the number one killer. So how can we maintain the “young” blood vessels? US cardiovascular experts recently pointed out that although blood vessels will naturally decline with age, aging, but as long as the attention to scientific diet, improve diet, improve physical activity, and develop a good life
