The blood is the postman of your body, the Manager of transpotrar nutrients, electrolytes, hormones, heat and oxygen through their system.
It is also the waste collector: deliver the waste to the kidneys and liver.
These are the vital data that every man should know:
1. Blood pressure.
Ideal range: maximum 120/80
Why it is important: with the passage of time high pressure begins to damage the arteries and veins, as well as bodies responsible for processing the blood like the kidneys.
Strategy: Check your blood pressure at least four times a year. Write down the date and outcome and have a record, if any of the numbers is outside the ideal range is time to see a cardiologist.
2. Heart rate.
Ideal range: 60 to 100 beats per minute.
Why it is important: each 15 beats per minute in a man at rest frequency increase 24% your risk of heart disease.
Strategy: It measures your pulse before you get up from the bed and have tracked for several months. Exercise regularly can reduce your pulse at rest.
3. Glucose.
Ideal range: below 100 mg/dl in fasting.
Why it is important: the blood sugar levels provide relevant data about your risk of diabetes.
Strategy: Ask your doctor to perform you a complete metabolic profile. Follow this indicator.
4. Cholesterol.
Ideal range: LDL below 100 mg/dl, HDL above 40 md/dl and non-HDL below 130 mg/dl.
Why it is important: the risk of developing a disease in the heart increases 50% by each 43 mg/dl cholesterol HDL-no.
Strategy: Lipid tests done annually.
5. Type of blood.
Why it is important: the types of blood (A; B, O, AB) are determined by proteins called antigens located in red blood cells. Some people have another protein called RH factor. People with RH-negative cannot receive an RH positive blood.
Strategy: It is useful that people with negative or type donate blood when they can because this is rare and very in demand.
