Health Alert: How Comfort Food Became a Medical Emergency

The shocking reason behind a young man’s stroke has been revealed.

According to the online media outlet Sanook, a young man in his 30s working in Taiwan had a stroke. The man’s co-workers said he looked very tired that morning and continued massaging his head. Suddenly, they heard a loud noise and found the man had collapsed. His mouth was twisted to one side, showing severe symptoms.

Moreover, he was unable to move his left side, so they immediately called an ambulance and headed to the emergency room.

The doctor diagnosed, “The left hemisphere of the man’s brain was swelling and the blood flow in the central cerebral artery area decreased, causing a blockage and a stroke”. He immediately underwent emergency surgery, however, he still has difficulty moving his left side. As a result of the analysis, the cause of the man’s stroke was due to his unhealthy eating habits–fried chicken and milk tea.

According to his colleagues, the man eats these foods three days a week if he works five to six days. Since he is taller than others, he consumes twice as much of the intake as a regular person.
