  Sleep hygiene When we were young, our parents were very conscious about our sleep. They never let us stay up at night to do anything, including studying, they used to say – “There is no alternative to healthy sleep - to lead a healthy life . If we do not sleep properly, our head will not be well, which means the brain will not function properly. If the brain does not function properly, it means that the day is wasted”.  God has also designated night for rest and day for work.  But unfortunately, in the present era of extreme modernity, people have turned day into night – and night into day, we see every where!!   Desire is - I went to sleep, again - spent a few days without sleeping. Or having to take sleeping pills because you can't sleep, going to bed late, so getting up late the next day - none of this is healthy. It is not right to become dependent on sleeping pills because you are not sleeping. Said the expert - There is no substitute for adequate sleep t...

Misconceptions about blood pressure

Misconceptions about blood pressure

My housemate's father suddenly went blind. When he was taken to the doctor, the doctor told him that the patient was suffering from high blood pressure.

Many people around us are suffering from high blood pressure but do not know it or do not pay attention to it. Many also have various misconceptions about high blood pressure.

To lead a healthy life, it is important for us to be aware of the misconceptions that experts have identified -

The doctor said - High blood pressure is considered the main risk factor for stroke, kidney disease, blindness, etc.

1)    "Many people think that there is no need to measure blood pressure unless you are old. Because high blood pressure is common in adults." This idea is wrong. High blood pressure can occur at a relatively young age. It can even occur in young people. Therefore, everyone should have their blood pressure measured at some point. Again, many people think that "blood pressure can increase a little as we age, and there is nothing to worry about." This idea is also wrong. At any age, if blood pressure goes above normal levels, it should be treated.

2)    Does having no problems mean that blood pressure is normal? --- "I don't have headaches, I don't get dizzy, I sleep well, I don't have these problems, I don't have high blood pressure", - this is also wrong. In most cases, there are no symptoms of high blood pressure. It is detected during routine checkups. Therefore, blood pressure should be measured regularly.

3)    Take medicine when blood pressure increases: -- Many people say that they only take medicine when their blood pressure is high. Then, when it becomes normal, they don't take it anymore. This is dangerous. Blood pressure medicines usually have to be taken regularly. Without the advice of a doctor, they should not stop taking medicine suddenly or leave it in the middle of the day. If the blood pressure drops too much, the dose or type of medicine can be changed on the advice of a doctor.

4)    Does eating tamarind or sour reduce blood pressure? -- When blood pressure increases, many people eat tamarind pulp, while others eat lemon slices. This is said to reduce blood pressure. There is no scientific basis for this belief. Rather, eating tamarind and sour things with salt can further increase blood pressure.

5)    Is it forbidden for high blood pressure patients to eat eggs and milk? -- Excess salt is forbidden for high blood pressure patients. Excessively salty foods, such as pickles, pickles, sauced foods, processed or packaged foods are also forbidden. But eggs and milk are not forbidden. However, to avoid heart disease and stroke, you should eat less fatty and fried foods.

6)    Is it wrong to take one medicine for a long time? -- Many people have been taking a medicine for many years and their blood pressure is under control. Even then, they want to change it. Because, they think that it may not be right to take one medicine for a long time. This is also a wrong idea. There is no need to change the medicine without any reason. Blood pressure control is the real thing.

We need to know and accept all these to lead a healthy life.
