What is Chinese's greatest hope for health? The answer is only four words: long life and 100 years!
As far as the current scientific research surveys are concerned, the normal life expectancy of people can indeed reach 100 years or more.
However, after all, life expectancy is affected by multiple factors, including living environment, bad living habits and diet, genetics, and even personality. Because of this, the average life expectancy of Chinese people is only about 76 years old!
Of course, this is not to say that 76 years old is the end of life, it is only an average of the life expectancy of mainland residents. The elderly who reach this age are already counted as the ranks of longevity.
Tracing the cause of the death of the Chinese people, after excluding accidents, the biggest root cause is a variety of fatal diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, cancer and so on!
Usually, after entering the age of 40, whether male or female, the function of various organs in the body begins to gradually decline, which is the age at which various chronic diseases are most likely to occur.
Therefore, in the clinical view, after entering the middle-aged and elderly, it is necessary to do a good job in comprehensive maintenance work and protect these three parts of the body, which is actually saving life:
1, liver nourishment is to continue life
The liver is one of the most important internal organs of the human body, and its main function is metabolic detoxification and biotransformation. Almost all toxins produced by the human body need to be converted and metabolized in the liver. Not only that, its biotransformation function also involves food digestion and absorption, endocrine balance, blood clotting and other aspects.
Therefore, once the liver is sick, the effects will also be systemic. Therefore, after reaching the middle-aged and elderly, everyone should learn to maintain liver maintenance, such as maintaining light and healthy eating habits and regularities, regular physical exercise, quit smoking and alcohol, and do not eat moldy and spoiled foods;
2. Care for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases
Among the factors that Chinese death due to disease, the biggest cause is cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, and the elderly are precisely the high-risk groups of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Because with the increase of age, people's blood vessels will gradually age, hardening, while many elderly people in the mainland have appeared cardiovascular and cerebrovascular-related diseases, such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, etc., they will also promote the emergence of atherosclerosis, for coronary heart disease, cerebral infarction buried hidden dangers.
Therefore, at this age, special attention should be paid to cardiovascular health. For example, everyone needs to maintain a light diet, actively control weight, cooperate with doctors for treatment of primary diseases, maintain adequate sleep, optimistic and cheerful mentality, etc., all of which contribute to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health;
3. Protect the stomach and intestines
Whether it is chronic gastrointestinal diseases or cancerous diseases, they are actually concentrated in the middle and elderly, and people over 45 years old in the mainland are at high risk of gastric cancer. Therefore, after entering this age group, we should pay attention to gastrointestinal health, and we can regularly conduct endoscopic screening of the intestine and stomach according to the doctor's recommendations.
In addition, dietary adjustment is also very necessary, the focus is to maintain a light diet, have a good eating pattern, fat and fiber matching is reasonable.
In fact, it is not difficult to see from the above content that there is no so-called shortcut to the maintenance of body organs, whether it is middle-aged and elderly or young and middle-aged people, the basis of physical health is to have good living and eating habits.
On the contrary, if there are unhealthy habits for a long time, even if they begin to improve after entering the middle-aged and elderly, they have already laid the foundation for chronic diseases. Therefore, regardless of the age of the present, it is very necessary to stay away from unhealthy habits.
