According to relevant statistics, in recent years, the mortality rate of middle-aged people around the age of 40 has risen sharply, and men are higher than women. The common causes of death are cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and cerebral hemorrhage, while the incidence of coronary heart disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia and diabetes tends to be younger.
Why do young people suffer from senile diseases? The main reason is that young and middle-aged people have great work pressure, irregular life and unreasonable diet. Rome was not built in a day. If we want to delay the occurrence of these diseases, we must put prevention first. Excessive consumption and overdraft of young and middle-aged people will lead to premature aging of tissues and organs, premature occurrence of senile diseases, and it will be too late to start health preservation until the age of 60 or 70, and the aging of various organs and tissues is irreversible. Therefore, health care should start with young people. How should young and middle-aged people keep fit?
-life should be regular.
When it comes to the rules of life, it is necessary to form a good rule in the arrangement of the day, such as regular daily life, going to bed early and getting up early according to everyone's habits, or going to bed late and getting up early, so it is best not to go to bed late. Three meals a day should be timed, such as breakfast at 6: 30, lunch 12 and dinner at 6: 30. According to the four seasons of the year, the time of daily life and diet can be adjusted appropriately, which is what Chinese medicine calls "conforming to the four seasons". Regular life can make the functions of various systems of the human body more normal, which is conducive to the digestion and absorption of nutrients and makes people have abundant physical strength to work.
In winter, you should go to bed early and get up late-the traditional health theory holds that living between heaven and earth, life activities should conform to the changes of nature, and the laws of daily life should be changed according to the laws of climate change in four seasons to conform to nature. This is the idea of "correspondence between man and nature".
□ Reasonable diet.
With the improvement of people's living standards, rich materials and frequent work and social contacts, some people have more opportunities to eat out, which easily leads to unreasonable diet. Such as overeating, irregular diet, uncontrolled diet, picky eaters, etc., will lead to long-term overnutrition or nutritional imbalance, leading to diseases caused by unreasonable diet such as hyperlipidemia, hypertension, diabetes and obesity. Chinese medicine says that "sorghum is thick and full of boils", which means that eating more fat and sweet can make people grow boils. Excessive drinking can cause fatty liver and alcoholic cirrhosis. Therefore, if you want a reasonable diet, the best way is to eat it at home, because you can eat it in moderation according to your physical condition. When people reach middle age, they should eat more vegetables, fruits, high protein (such as milk and eggs) and low fat. This can prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases or delay the occurrence of some middle-aged and elderly diseases.
Eat five flavors skillfully and keep healthy scientifically-people's tastes vary widely, sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty. Chinese medicine believes that for health, all kinds of food should be eaten in a balanced way.
□ Insist on proper exercise.
Everyone knows that life lies in exercise. But how to exercise, how much exercise is appropriate, but not everyone can scientifically grasp. I think the best exercise is walking, which is easy for most people to do and stick to. The length of walking can be chosen according to each person's physique and other factors. Generally speaking, the distance is 3 ~ 5 kilometers. You can do it in the morning or after dinner. Walking is aerobic exercise, which has many benefits: it helps the digestive system and can play an auxiliary treatment role for chronic gastritis; Prevent the degradation of legs and feet; Improve cardiopulmonary function; Lowering blood pressure; It can also make people energetic, improve work efficiency and improve sleep quality. Climbing stairs is also a good exercise for young people. People who work or live in high-rise buildings can choose to exercise step by step, such as climbing three floors first, adding 1 ~ 2 floors a month later, and gradually increasing to 10 floors, and climbing 2 ~ 3 times a day can also achieve the purpose of exercise. Of course, people over 40 had better not climb stairs, because when they are older, too much weight on their joints will promote aging.
Now some people can only spare 1 ~ 2 hours of exercise every week because of their busy work, which is far from enough. If you want to strengthen your physique and improve your resistance, you must choose exercises that are easy to master and persist.
People all know the importance of physical exercise to health. On the one hand, moderate exercise can promote blood circulation and metabolism, regulate and excite the nerve center of the brain, and enhance and improve immunity. On the other hand, exercise can also increase diet and improve the quality of sleep. However, only by grasping the three links before, during and after exercise can we achieve the best effect of exercise, and exercise cannot rely on sex.
