Today, I will collect some things that I thought was iq tax before and then "addicted" to you.
NO. 1 Wet toilet paper - "anus" is not rigid, it is very fragile
Recommendation Index: ★★★★ ☆
Suitable for: People with chrysanthemums
The anus is nicknamed "chrysanthemum" and is prone to feces and secretions due to its many folds [6].

In addition, chrysanthemums themselves are basin terrain, not ventilated and breathable, microbial growth and secretion stimulation can lead to perianal itching, eczema and even fistula.
So it's important to keep the chrysanthemums clean!
Wet toilet paper is soft and comfortable, good adsorption, is an artifact for cleaning chrysanthemums, because it is clean enough!
However, when using it, it is more important to pay attention to the technique! It is best to rub it from the back of the trip (especially for girls), pay attention to the combination of hands, open the bow left and right, rain and dew, carousel... In short, try not to have dead ends.
NO. 2 Artificial tears – are you dripping right?
Suitable for: you with dry eyes
Don't guess, your eyes must also be super long standby.
How to relieve eye fatigue and dry eyes? In addition to frequent blinking, artificial tears can also help you.

Now most of the eye drops on the market contain preservatives, and some drugs have the effect of constricting the blood vessels in the eyes, such drugs will have a mild mydriatic effect, can only be temporary or short-term use, long-term use may induce acute attacks of glaucoma, damage to the cornea, causing eye redness, dry symptoms aggravated, and even vision loss, etc., causing serious damage to vision.
Artificial tears mimic the composition of human tears and are relatively less harmful to the eyes.
Usually, when choosing artificial tears, try to choose those that do not contain preservatives (commonly used eye drops preservatives are benzalkonium chloride, benzalkonium bromide, etc.). Common artificial tears are hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, 0.1% (and 0.3%) sodium hyaluronate, polyvinyl alcohol eye drops and so on.
How to choose artificial tears?
In general, artificial tears with less viscosity are selected for patients with mild dry eye, while artificial tears with a large viscous consistency can be selected for patients with moderate to severe dry eyes [4].
If you are just starting to use it, it is best to communicate with a doctor before purchasing.
In addition, artificial tears are only to alleviate symptoms, not to cure the symptoms, if the eyes are dry and serious, it is recommended to go to the hospital for treatment.
NO. 3 Waist/Ergonomic Chair – "Sit Right" to support you
Suitable for people: lumbar muscle strainers, sedentary people, poor posture, lumbar intervertebral disc herniation...
When you sit crookedly, the waist will be subjected to huge pressure, if this is so for a long time, it will lead to uneven pressure on the pelvis and lumbar spine, resulting in lumbar muscle strain, lumbar disc herniation and so on.
In order to reduce the pressure on the lumbar spine as much as possible, it is necessary to start by "sitting right".
A good waist recliner or ergonomic chair can not only effectively correct the poor sitting posture, but also bring sufficient support to the waist.
You must not underestimate this part of the extra waist support, without it, we have to continue to use our low back muscles tense contraction to maintain a sitting posture for a long time, which is the main reason for psoas muscle strain. With the extra support that the chair brings, we can let the tense lower back muscles "rest after work".

How to choose the right chair? The most important thing is to look at the backrest, and the role of the backrest is to guide us to form the right sitting posture.
Because people's spine has a certain physiological curvature, the focus of the backrest is a waist support in place, and a good waist support can fit the curve of our back very well (feeling slightly resisted behind the back), and the softness is moderate and breathable. The second is the backrest, it is best to fit the back, and those who pursue the experience can choose the design of the double back and three backs that are separated from the top and bottom. Again, the headrest, because the height is different, so the headrest is best adjustable.
Because our tall, fat and thin are different, we can go to the offline store or a friend's house to experience and then buy.
As for the price, there is also a big difference, simple can buy a soft and moderate small pillow and an ordinary chair combination (the price is close to the people), pay attention to the will also buy hundreds, thousands of yuan of engineering chairs, but need to meet our physiological curves, healthy and comfortable. As for the multi-functional chair of tens of thousands of yuan... As long as you have money, I can't stop you.
It should be noted that even if you have a waist lean and an ergonomic chair, do not sit for a long time, sit for a period of time and remember to get up and move, and usually exercise more.
NO. 4 Floss - instead, it can maintain the gap between teeth
Referral Index: ★★★★★
Applicable people: men and women, young and old
Food residues, saliva, etc. will form plaque under the action of bacteria, and gradually mineralize to form dental calculus. Plaque and calculus can easily cause periodontitis, causing gums to retract or teeth to loosen and displace, which may eventually lead to wider gaps. Even if you are very careful with your teeth, it is inevitable that there will be fish that slip through the net [3].
Regular use of floss can effectively clean the plaque on the tooth surface between the teeth and the sides of the tooth gap, which can slow down the formation of calculus and prevent periodontitis and widening of the tooth gap.
When choosing floss, it is best to choose a floss roll that can be drawn.
Because the elasticity is adjustable, the material is soft, the use is flexible, and the price is cheap (about a few tens of yuan). The thread of the floss is made up of microfibers, which can be deformed between the teeth, bringing out food scraps and not opening the gap between the teeth.
In contrast, toothpicks are sharp and hard, more likely to poke gums, and are not recommended. There are disposable floss bars on the market, but pay attention to the material of the line, too hard or inelastic line is not recommended.
P.S. The correct use of floss not only does not make the gap between the teeth larger, but also prevents the gap between the teeth from becoming wider to a certain extent by cleaning the gap between the teeth. How to use floss correctly?
NO.5 Electric toothbrush - free the right hand
Brush your teeth well in order to clean the plaque – the culprit of gingivitis and caries. Plaque multiplies very quickly and basically makes a comeback after 4 hours of brushing! Pathogenic bacteria in plaque secrete acids that damage the teeth.
For you after a tiring day of work, it's not too cool to free your right hand with an electric toothbrush. The vibration of the electric toothbrush is transmitted to the bristles, bringing out food debris and bacteria, which is labor-saving and clean.
The price of ordinary electric toothbrushes is about a few hundred yuan, and there will be different vibration frequencies and methods, which can be selected according to preferences.
It should be noted that even if you use an electric toothbrush, the brushing time should reach 3 to 5 minutes, and do not rush it.
NO. 6 Body Milk - Autumn and Winter Dry Skin Savior
Applicable population: infants, the elderly, dry skin and eczema people [5], etc
In autumn and winter, when you take off your autumn pants, a song will instantly sound - the north wind XiaoXiao ~ snowflakes fluttering ~ But it is your dry skin that flutters with the wind.
In the dry autumn and winter season, the oil secreted by the sebaceous glands is obviously not enough to protect the skin, which requires additional moisturizing products to protect it. Especially infants, the elderly and people with dry skin and eczema, try to apply effective moisturizing products to the whole body after bathing (pay attention to avoiding the location of wounds).
Body lotions are classified as moisturizing body lotions, whitening body lotions, and body lotions with other effects.
Moisturizing body lotion focuses on moisturizing, like a protective barrier with humidity, while supplying moisturizing factors into the skin, it can also form a "protective wall" on the surface of the skin to prevent excessive loss of moisture.
Common ingredients are glycerol, hyaluronic acid, urea, etc. It should be noted that the choice of moisturizing milk is different in season, spring and summer is recommended to prefer lotion body milk, light and easy to absorb, breathable without burden; autumn and winter preferred cream body milk, fully moisturized, long-lasting moisturizing.
Common ingredients of whitening body lotion include niacinamide (vitamin B3), vitamin C and its derivatives, arbutin, coagulant acid, etc., mainly through antioxidants, inhibition of melanin production or aggregation of the way to make the skin brighter.
Be careful: try to avoid body lotions that contain harmful ingredients! Such as containing glucocorticoids (dexamethasone, hydrocortisone), synthetic oils and fats (try to use natural oils), polyethylene glycol additives, excess niacinamide (more than 5% niacinamide may cause body hair growth) and so on.
When choosing body lotion, mainly according to their own skin type and the efficacy of the product, how much the advertising is bragged about, the basic ingredients are only those few, not the more ingredients the better, not the more expensive the better, not the higher the sales volume, the better.
NO. 7 Physical examination - cure the disease, health and longevity to choose it!
Recommended Index: ★★★★★ (Direct Burst)
Who it's for: Everyone

It can be said that regular physical examination is the best means of health management.
It's just a complicated physical examination item and a variety of fancy test categories, so that you can't choose.
For example, you will see: A package 2800 yuan; B package: 3500 yuan; C package 5000 yuan...
With so many physical examination items, what should be checked? Is the more comprehensive and expensive the medical examination package, the better?
The Expert Consensus on the Basic Health Examination Project, published in 2014, tells us that the "1+X" principle can be followed in the physical examination [1].
"1" - Routine physical examination items, including physical examination, laboratory tests and auxiliary examinations. With the age of 40 as the boundary, young people are divided once a year, and middle-aged and elderly people are divided once a year once a year.
"X" – a special physical examination project that conducts special screening for different ages, genders and risks of chronic diseases. This part will also be recommended for reference in hospitals and regular medical institutions.
How to choose the specific physical examination items? Here are a few big principles to note:
Physical examination is not just a routine line, nor is it once and for all, in the early stage of some diseases can be timely intervention, to achieve early diagnosis, early treatment, to avoid the deterioration of the disease into the late stage, for you to save a large number of medical expenses, is really fragrant. In addition, the physical examination is not as comprehensive as possible, and it is reasonable to choose the appropriate physical examination items for yourself (the key is that the wallet cannot be stopped).
The above is the summary of the real incense scene, to know all things, not expensive, more functional or good, suitable for themselves is more important, scientific choice of what you need, will make your life happier.
