How to avoid another tia?

Are you tired of experiencing those mini-strokes that always seem to catch you off guard? A Transient Ischemic Attack, commonly referred to as TIA or “mini-stroke,” is a temporary interruption in blood flow to the brain. While it may not leave any long-term damage, it’s certainly no laughing matter. But since we’re all about laughter, let’s explore some hilarious ways on how to avoid another TIA.

Set Reasonable Expectations

Sometimes the reason for your stroke could be linked with your line of work or personal life expectations. Putting too much pressure on oneself and flaring anxiety levels can lead many people into having a stroke; hence setting reasonable expectations is vital in avoiding TIAs.

When life gives you lemons, don’t try juggling them while standing on one leg singing Motley Crue; set realistic goals instead. Be kinder to yourself, practice relaxation techniques such as taking deep breaths during moments of mental distress when things get overwhelming.

Watch Your Sodium Intake

Salt might make food taste better, but there’s a sting in every sprinkle – High sodium intake raises the body’s blood pressure which coincidentally relates quite well with strokes! Therefore managing salt consumption should be paramount, more so if one has already experienced TIAs or if high blood pressure runs within their lineage especially as they grow older.

Try using spices like black pepper and thyme instead. And occasionally adding herbs like basil and mint can go a long way flavor-wise without putting our bodies through added stress!

If you’re unwilling to put your smoke vices aside, know that you’d be adding unnecessary stress on your body system leading to the higher probability of strokes.

There are always alternatives that can help through the quitting process such as nicotine gum or embracing cannabis (if appropriate wherever they might permit its use). So why not take up power walking? At least then when you wake up short of breath with mobility impediments because let’s face it – breathing isn’t one of those things people would want to struggle with while moving.

Hydrate Well

Water takes almost 2/3rds our bodies; hence keeping hydrated shouldn’t feel much like a chore at all! It is essential in preventing TIAs since dehydration tends to strain blood flow within the body system. Even more, our cognition levels depend highly on being well-hydrated making daily mark-setting easier!

Not everyone is fond of drinking water. However, some fruits keep dehydration at bay like watermelons which hold around 92% water content! Though substitution with beer consumption won’t cut it after fifty pints, try hydrating yourself sufficiently by drinking enough fluids every day in reasonable amounts.

Consume Heart-healthy Foods
