  5。防腦充血 (stroke prevention)
當發覺指甲上有紅點或黑點出現時﹐這代表體內血行不暢﹐大可能是腦充血的前 兆。腦充血預防勝於治療﹐平常的保養﹐減壓等等﹐都是重要的預防措施。對穴道 做剌激﹐也能夠產生良好作用。應多按摩剌激四指之井穴﹕ 商 陽、中衝、關衝、 和少衝。 預防腦充血(中風)要訣 (高齡、高血壓者留意): (1) 睡醒時不可立即起身落床、如廁。先做深呼吸三次方起身﹐再做深呼吸三次方 落床。 (2) 大便時不可用力太大。 (3) 飯後不得即刻 睡眠。 (4) 如不幸發生﹐宜急電醫生急救。(參看 辨認中風常識 ). 美國最新醫學研究發現越橘(Cranberry) 對中風病人非常有益。多吃(berry) 類水 果 (e.g., blueberry) 對腦健康有益。 注意保持血壓正常。不抽煙﹐早睡早 起﹐多做運動﹐留意飲食及保持心態平和。
