China Heart Attack Treatment Day｜Preventing heart attack, starting with red blood cell aggregation
November 20 is "Heart Attack Treatment Day" in China. Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), a sudden-onset cardiovascular disease, is a serious threat to people's lives and health due to its high mortality and disability rates. Acute myocardial infarction can easily lead to heart failure, and once an attack occurs, it is like a countdown to life, and every second of delay may bring irreversible consequences. Therefore, when chest pain and other suspected symptoms of heart attack, should immediately call 120, to fight for the precious golden 120 minutes, that is, from the onset of the infarction to open the window of time, in order to reduce the rate of death and disability.
However, heart attacks are not unpreventable. In fact, 90% of heart attack cases can be avoided through a healthy lifestyle and early medical intervention. Bad lifestyle habits such as overwork, emotional stress, overeating, and staying up late for long periods of time are all triggers for heart attacks. In addition, constipated people may also induce myocardial infarction due to increased cardiac load and decreased coronary artery perfusion when straining to defecate. Therefore, it is crucial to develop healthy living habits to prevent heart attack.
In studies in functional medicine, a strong positive correlation has been found between hyperlipidemia and the degree of red blood cell aggregation. Patients with moderate or severe aggregation of erythrocytes tend to have a higher degree of dyslipidemia, which may also be accompanied by a significant increase in blood pressure and blood glucose. Erythrocyte aggregation leads to increased blood viscosity, increased resistance to circulation, decreased mobility, and may even result in blockage of capillaries and microscopic veins. When this situation continues to deteriorate, serious diseases such as blood clots, heart attacks and strokes can ensue.
Screening for red blood cell aggregation has therefore become an important tool for detecting the early risk of heart attack. Regular functional medicine screening allows you to keep abreast of your own red blood cell aggregation status so that you can take targeted preventive measures.

When moderate and severe aggregation of red blood cells is detected, early intervention is warranted to eliminate the risk of disease. However, it is often difficult to change the condition of red blood cell aggregation in the short term by relying only on changes in daily behavioral habits. In this case, physical interventions such as acupuncture and massage in Chinese medicine or pulsed magnetic microcirculation therapy in functional medicine can be used.
Pulse magnetic microcirculation therapy is to correct the blood rheology indexes, improve the vasodilatation function and repair the blood microcirculation by changing the charge distribution on the surface of the cell membrane. It can effectively solve the problem of red blood cell aggregation, reduce the risk of blood clots and heart attacks, and improve the pathology of bones, muscles, blood and other systems.

We should start from the present moment, care and pay attention to the prevention of heart attack, and start from solving the red blood cell aggregation to minimize the risk of heart attack and protect the health of ourselves and our family.
