Blood clots that form in blood vessels and in the heart cavity are commonly called thrombi. This occurs due to the thickening of blood cells. There may be several reasons for their formation.
Blood clots occur as a result of chronic pathological processes in the body, but also as a result of the impact of an unhealthy lifestyle and diet on the body.
Meanwhile, there are special products designed to thin the blood and prevent the occurrence of thrombosis.
These products can be divided into groups depending on the content of one or another useful substance.
1. Products rich in healthy vitamins
The presence of sufficient amounts of vitamins A, B, C, and E in the body helps to normalize blood flow and ensure a balance of lipids and glucose. It is important that these elements are present in the right amount and not in excess. Otherwise, increased blood viscosity and decreased fluid content in the body may occur. Fruits and vegetables are usually considered to be foods rich in vitamins. For example, lemon and other citrus fruits help to normalize fats in the body and also provide the required amount of vitamin C. Pomegranate prevents pathological processes in the heart and also naturally supplies vitamins C and B. Beets are rich in vitamins B, C, and E, and help to retain fluid in the body. And ginger is an edible plant with the highest content of vitamin B. A striking example of a berry that is useful in this sense is blackcurrant. Just 30 berries from this bush per day will saturate the body not only with the required level of vitamin C, but also with copper and lead, which help strengthen muscles and improve vascular tone.
2. Products that maintain water-salt balance
For the body to function effectively, it is extremely important that its ecosystem contains a sufficient amount of salts and minerals. Cucumbers, green lettuce leaves, celery, watermelon berries and tomatoes have an extremely beneficial effect on the human body for these purposes. They contain a large amount of water in their composition and can also have an antidiabetic effect, reducing glucose levels.
3. Amino acids
These substances are designed to ensure the normal functioning of the body and are part of protein products. This list includes eggs, dairy products, beef, lamb and pork, as well as cheese and some types of fish, such as cod. Getting enough of these microelements in food promotes normal growth, recovery after physical exertion and increased resistance to disease.
4. Fiber
Fiber helps the body retain water and increases its ability to regenerate. Bananas, carrots, apples, strawberries, and boiled potatoes are rich in this element.
5. Phytoncides
Phytoncides are designed to ensure the normal functioning of the digestion processes in the intestines, as well as to implement the correct balance of microelements in it. Garlic, onion, horseradish, radish and red pepper cope with the task of delivering these substances to the human body.
