According to the results of the Korea Disease Control and Prevention Agency’s 2023 Community Health Survey, there are still many people who do not know that they have high blood pressure, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia. As many as 40% of people may maintain bad eating habits while suffering from high blood pressure or hyperlipidemia. These diseases are increasingly serious in that they can be the starting point of a stroke (cerebral infarction-cerebral hemorrhage) that threatens life and causes paralysis.
Blood pressure level recognition rate 62.8% vs blood sugar level recognition rate 30.6%
The awareness rate of people knowing that they have high blood pressure was 62.8% in 2023, a slight decrease of 0.1%p compared to the previous year. It can be estimated that close to 40% of people may continue to maintain bad lifestyle habits without even knowing that their blood pressure is high. The awareness rate of blood sugar levels, an indicator of diabetes, increased by 2.2 percentage points to 30.6%. As the number of people diagnosed with obesity, high blood pressure, and diabetes continues to increase, it is important to find ‘hidden patients’ and recommend prompt treatment.
It is life-threatening and causes paralysis of the body… Do you know the ‘symptoms’ of stroke?
The recognition rate of early symptoms of stroke (cerebral infarction-cerebral hemorrhage) and myocardial infarction, which are worsened by high blood pressure, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia, was still low. The recognition rate of stroke symptoms, such as paralysis on one side of the body and speech and vision difficulties, was low at 62.0%, and the recognition rate of myocardial infarction symptoms, such as chest pain, was low at 52.9%. If you live without knowing that you have high blood pressure, diabetes, or hyperlipidemia, and it worsens into a stroke, not knowing the symptoms can make the disease worse and make it difficult to respond quickly when it occurs.
Hyperlipidemia, high blood pressure, and diabetes occur together… why?
High blood pressure or hyperlipidemia (dyslipidemia) often causes diabetes. This is because risk factors such as obesity, smoking, lack of exercise, and genes are similar. Eating too many carbohydrates (including sugar) and saturated fat (such as meat fat) increases the risk of gaining weight and hyperlipidemia. Patients with type 2 diabetes are also often obese and overweight, and if they like salty foods and smoke, their risk of high blood pressure increases. If hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and diabetes coexist, it can worsen into vascular diseases such as life-threatening stroke.
Prevent high blood pressure, hyperlipidemia, and diabetes – how do you manage it?
To prevent hyperlipidemia (dyslipidemia), it is best to avoid foods high in saturated fatty acids (animal foods such as pork belly, bacon, sausage, etc.) or trans fatty acids (snack and fried foods). Instead, it is better to eat plenty of unsaturated fatty acids (whole grains, beans, fish) that support blood and blood vessel health. Frequently eat vegetables, beans, and seaweed that are high in dietary fiber, which reduces neutral fat and cholesterol in the body. Even if you eat less rice, if you like simple sugars (sugar, etc.), you will gain weight and your blood sugar level will rise. You should avoid sweet foods.
Menopausal women need to pay close attention because the female hormone (estrogen) that protects blood vessels decreases, causing blood pressure to gradually rise and the risk of vascular diseases such as stroke to increase. You should also move your body often. As you gain weight, your risk of diabetes increases. It is recommended to do aerobic exercise, such as walking, for at least 30 minutes a day, 5 times a week. It is effective to do strength training 2-3 times a week to give your muscles time to rest.
