How to manage insufficient blood supply to the brain
Disease description:
My colleague has recently been feeling drowsy and frequently experiencing dizziness. At times, he suddenly feels vertiginous, nauseous, and vomits, accompanied by general weakness. After examination, he was diagnosed with cerebral hypoperfusion. I would like to ask, how can cerebral hypoperfusion be managed or improved?

Dr. Huang Shichang
Cerebral hypoperfusion, commonly referred to as impaired cerebral blood circulation, can be managed through the following approaches:
1. Dietary adjustments: Maintain a balanced diet, avoid foods high in sugar, salt, and fat, and consume more fresh vegetables, fruits, and foods rich in dietary fiber, protein, and minerals to support vascular health.
2. Moderate exercise: Engage in aerobic activities such as brisk walking, jogging, or cycling to enhance cardiopulmonary function and improve cerebral hypoxia. Avoid strenuous exercise, which may worsen symptoms.
3. Adequate sleep: Ensure at least 7 hours of sleep per day and create a comfortable, quiet sleeping environment to help relieve cerebral fatigue.
4. Psychological regulation: Reduce mental stress through distraction techniques, talking with others, or participating in outdoor activities, to prevent negative emotions from affecting cerebral blood flow.
If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly.
