What should not be eaten with cardiovascular blockage
Patients with cardiovascular blockage should generally avoid foods high in cholesterol, salt, and sugar, and should also refrain from taking vasoconstrictive agents. Specific details are as follows:
1. Foods
1. High-cholesterol foods
Cardiovascular blockage is usually closely related to elevated blood lipid levels. Patients should generally avoid eating foods such as pork liver, chicken liver, shrimp skins, and fresh crab roe, as these can easily increase cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels.
2. High-salt foods
Excessive salt intake accelerates vascular hardening, reduces blood vessel elasticity, slows down blood flow, and may lead to vascular blockage. Therefore, patients should generally avoid high-salt foods such as salted fish, pickled vegetables, and preserved vegetables.
3. High-sugar foods
Obesity increases the risk of developing cardiovascular blockage. Regular consumption of high-sugar foods such as cakes, candies, and chocolates can promote fat accumulation and worsen obesity, thereby exacerbating vascular blockage.
2. Medications
Cardiovascular blockage mainly refers to impaired blood flow leading to ischemic myocardial necrosis. In addition to avoiding the aforementioned foods, patients should also avoid medications such as digoxin tablets and aminophylline sustained-release tablets, which are vasoconstrictors that may reduce blood flow and increase the risk of thrombosis.
It is recommended that patients take medications such as enteric-coated aspirin tablets and clopidogrel hydrogen sulfate tablets under medical supervision, which can help alleviate lipid accumulation.
