Eat with your heart in mind during the holidays

CARDIOLOGY SPECIALIST ÖZGÜR ÖZ: " EATING TOO MANY FOODS AT A TIME AFTER RAMADAN MAY TRIGGER CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES "

If a person overloads on heavy meals after Ramadan, the person's heart rate may also increase. It was stated that the risk of crisis may increase.

Cardiology Specialist Özgür Öz stated that metabolism slows down during Ramadan and that one should not try to eat immediately after Ramadan. Reminding that the last days of Ramadan are approaching, Doctor Öz said, "We are now facing Eid. Since there are issues related to nutrition during both Ramadan and Eid, people need to be knowledgeable about cardiovascular diseases that occur as a result of metabolic disorders related to nutrition. Especially vascular patients." They need to take precautions. Of course, our patients with heart failure who have had a heart attack have received the necessary recommendations from us. Especially in heart failure patients, if they are using medications such as diuretics during these long days, they should avoid electrolyte imbalance or in patients who have recently had a heart attack, low blood sugar may cause high adrenaline. We made some suggestions to them in order to prevent heart attacks from occurring again by triggering them. Of course, we have a holiday coming up, what happens during the holiday, people's metabolism slows down during Ramadan, and during the holiday, we can go in with such a psychological state as if our body is going to enter Ramadan again and put a little load on it. Sudden loads during the holidays, when metabolism slows down, can lead to an increase in obesity, increased blood sugar and the risk of cardiovascular diseases in the future, as well as triggering cardiovascular diseases during the active period. It is necessary to be careful in this respect."

Oz says that the body is an adaptation mechanism. , said: "When we are hungry, we adapt to hunger, and when we are thirsty, we adapt to thirst over time. Of course, the days are very long during Ramadan, there was a period of not eating for about 17 hours. In this case, our body slows down the metabolism and tries to fill the tanks as much as possible." Our body is involved in activities aimed at When we look at it from the perspective, it is as if an organization is developing like preparation for a famine. Of course, if we suddenly put a load on such a body, what we eat before it breaks the habitual process can cause both weight gain and blood sugar increases. These can reveal metabolic diseases and possible cardiovascular diseases in the future. So healthy people also need to pay attention to these issues. It is necessary to say that it is beneficial to be a little more controlled in the process until the metabolism accelerates. Doctor Öz stated that nutrition is actually an effort and concluded his words as follows:“So we can say that eating by climbing two flights of stairs or three flights of stairs increases the load on the heart at the same rate. Therefore, heavy meals cause the intestines to malfunction, and the intestines' need for blood increases, and to provide this, the heart works harder, the load on the heart increases, and this can trigger crises. So, sudden loads should always be avoided. I hope everyone's holiday will be great. In order to have a good holiday, you need to be healthy and not be overloaded. It is necessary to go in a controlled manner. "Especially those who are overweight, those with heart failure, cardiovascular disease, and those with metabolic disorders need to pay more attention to these issues."
