Stroke is one of the most serious conditions related to acute cerebrovascular disorders.
It is characterized by the sudden loss or impairment of brain functions caused by damage to the blood vessels in the brain.
A stroke occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted due to a blocked artery or a ruptured blood vessel wall,
leading to damage or death of nerve cells.
This condition develops rapidly and is accompanied by dysfunction in the affected part of the brain.
Main risk factors:
High blood pressure
Diabetes
High cholesterol
Obesity
Low physical activity
Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption
Stroke prevention
One of the most important ways to prevent a stroke is a balanced diet containing all essential macro- and micronutrients.
Avoiding refined and fatty foods helps significantly reduce the risk of stroke and strengthen vascular health.
Preventive measures and raising public awareness are key in combating the increasing prevalence of stroke worldwide.
