Time when stroke is likely to occur

There are many factors that facilitate the occurrence of stroke such as: age, gender, occupation, habits and some diseases (hypertension, obesity, cardiovascular disease, etc.). In particular, the influence of biological rhythms has a significant impact on the progression of the disease, creating times when stroke is likely to occur.

Many scientific studies have shown that: changes in blood pressure and blood viscosity within 24 hours affect the formation of stroke, leading to the disease easily starting at certain times of the day. Accordingly, 3 am is the time when blood pressure is at its lowest and increases rapidly at 5 am. The period from 6 - 7 pm is also the time when blood pressure increases. In reality, many stroke patients are hospitalized at these times. High blood pressure causes damage to blood vessel walls, and can even rupture in small blood vessels such as blood vessels in the brain, causing cerebral hemorrhage or forming blood clots, blocking blood vessels and leading to stroke. On the other hand, blood viscosity is also one of the basic factors that form stroke. Blood viscosity follows a certain rule: from 4 - 8 am is when the blood is at its thickest, then thins, until around 12 pm is when the blood is at its thinnest and gradually thickens. Therefore, strokes often occur in the early morning – when blood is thickest.

When a stroke occurs, the patient often has some typical symptoms such as: sudden headache, slurred speech, paralysis of one arm or leg, etc. and if not treated promptly, their life will be directly threatened. Treatment for a stroke is often prescribed by doctors using anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs, hemostatic drugs, antispasmodics, etc. combined with appropriate measures to regulate pulse and blood pressure.

In addition to using Western medicine in treatment, many doctors and patients are now choosing to use products of natural origin that do not cause side effects. The leader in this product line is the functional food Nattospes. The product's main ingredient is the enzyme natokinase, which has the ability to prevent and break down blood clots, preventing and minimizing risks at times when strokes are likely to occur.

Medical experts also note: people at high risk (old age, obesity, high blood pressure, atherosclerosis...) should not get out of bed immediately upon waking up in the morning and need help if signs of stroke appear. When having a stroke, the patient needs to follow the doctor's treatment regimen, pay attention to the times when stroke is likely to occur and take Nattospes regularly to reduce the risk of recurrence.
