How do you recognize a stroke? Beata Tadla and prof. Konrad Rejdak in the “Onet Rano” program.

– Can we sense beforehand that something is wrong with us, or does it suddenly appear? The leader asked.

– These are sudden symptoms, definitely. It’s about the loss of neurological function. Any symptom related to visual impairment or muscle strength in the limbs, or balance disorders, or asymmetry in the face resulting from paralysis of specific areas, is an alarm signal – said the neurologist.

  1. What is a stroke?

– It all depends on what we do in the first minutes. Most people wait, hope it will pass, that it is the effect of being tired or sleeping on one side of the body. It must be an alarm, we have to call for help. Unfortunately, some people have such a form of stroke that they lose their ability to speak. Communication with the environment is disturbed. Then it is difficult for them to call for help, but the awareness of the environment, household members and neighbors is so important – emphasized prof. Rejdak.

– Some disturbing signal, some noise, it can be a harbinger that our acquaintance, close, has suffered something disturbing, has fallen. And that this could be the beginning of a stroke – said the guest of the “Onet Rano” program.

Folic acid reduces the risk of stroke, so its deficiency should be avoided. Medonet Market offers the dietary supplement Folian 400 mcg with a well-absorbed form of folic acid.
