Many people begin to experience unpleasant sensations as they age, such as numbness in the fingers of their hands and feet at night. Most often, these symptoms indicate the development of atherosclerosis of the blood vessels.
Atherosclerosis is one of the most serious heart diseases, where the walls of the vessels thicken, and cholesterol deposits form in the damaged areas of the vessels, interfering with normal blood flow, writes the publication “Ottozh”.
Atherosclerosis can provoke angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, and stroke. To prevent this in the future, it is necessary to take care of the vessels now. We have prepared the best recipes for vessel prophylaxis at home.

Preventive measures to strengthen vessels:
“Cleanliness is not where they clean, but where they do not litter,” – this well-known proverb best characterizes the problem of cholesterol deposits on the vessels. Since atherosclerosis develops over decades, one should think about the cleanliness of the vessels from an early age.
What products to introduce into the diet
Raw seeds and nuts, dishes from the liver, beans, and fish are rich in vitamins E and A, as well as selenium. These substances improve the elasticity of blood vessels. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids prevent their fragility and also help to remove toxins from the body. Most of these acids are found in seafood.
What products to avoid
Consumption of sausages, industrially prepared sauces, confectionery products, and sugar-containing products leads to inflammation in the vessels, increases their fragility, and the body is forced to repair them.
Physical activity
Physical exercises burn fat deposits and lower cholesterol levels, regulating fat metabolism in the body. A trained heart wears out much slower and can pump more blood. Vessels also train: their walls become more elastic and stronger. This significantly reduces the risk of developing cholesterol deposits.
“If you are over 30, vessel prophylaxis is a matter of survival!” After all, millions of people die annually from cardiovascular diseases caused by atherosclerosis and the “silent killer” – cholesterol.
