Liver function tests can understand the health status of your liver, including aminotransferases, bilirubin and other indicators, so as to determine whether there are hepatitis, cirrhosis and other problems.
Kidney function – A kidney function test can help you understand the health of your kidneys, including urea nitrogen, creatinine and other indicators, so as to determine whether there are problems such as kidney disease.
Blood Sugar – A blood sugar test can tell you about your blood sugar levels, which can tell if you have problems such as diabetes.

The doctor bluntly said: The four indicators in the physical examination report are normal, the body is basically fine, and the knowledge has increased
1. Blood
Blood pressure, a seemingly ordinary indicator, is actually closely related to a person's lifespan. If the years are urging people and the value on the blood pressure monitor is quietly rising, the hidden health threat is like a shadow in the dark night, which makes people vigilant. Those people in their twilight years, if they take the signs of high blood pressure lightly, may be tricked by it at some inadvertent moment.
What's more, if we allow high blood pressure to develop, it may gradually eat away at our body's vital organs. When the function of the organs gradually declines, the discomfort of the body comes like a tidal wave, and there is nowhere to escape. At this point, we must take action to treat the symptoms of high blood pressure.
2. Blood sugar
Blood sugar, the vital index, is closely related to our health. If blood sugar remains high for a long time, various uncomfortable symptoms will follow, and the consequences of limb numbness, frequent nocturia, and weight loss will gradually appear, constantly reminding us that our blood sugar has exceeded the standard.
The long-term indulgence of high blood sugar will lead to a series of complications and seriously threaten life. Therefore, maintaining the stability of blood sugar is the key to ensuring our health and longevity. In order to prevent the invasion of diabetes, we should develop good Xi to keep blood sugar stable and protect our health.
3. Blood lipids
Many people do not pay enough attention to excessive blood lipid levels when they are older. This can lead to blood viscosity, affecting blood circulation, and when blood is excessively viscous, the body's normal blood supply cannot meet demand, and vital organs can become less functional due to lack of blood supply.
At the same time, blockage of blood vessels can also occur, with serious consequences. Therefore, we need to control the blood lipid level within the normal range to prevent high blood lipids from causing harm to the body.
4. Transaminases
Aminotransferases are like the "health vane" of the liver, which can accurately reflect the health status of the liver. As an important organ of our body, the liver is closely related to our lifespan. If we ignore the health of the liver and often do some harmful behaviors to the liver, it may lead to damage to liver cells, which in turn leads to an increase in aminotransferase levels.
In order to maintain good health and prolong life, we should pay attention to the health of the liver. Through a reasonable way to maintain the liver, to ensure that its function is normal, so that the aminotransferase index will not appear inexplicably elevated. Therefore, we should always pay attention to the health status of the liver, adjust our Xi habits in time, and escort the health of the liver.
For middle-aged and elderly people, what should be done if they want to be healthy?
1. Middle-aged and elderly people should pay attention to healthy diet. Diet is the foundation of good health, and you should choose nutritious, easy-to-digest foods and avoid irritating foods such as excessive greasy, spicy, raw and cold. At the same time, it is necessary to maintain a regular diet and do not overeat, so as not to cause a burden on the gastrointestinal tract.
2. Middle-aged and elderly people should exercise appropriately. Exercise can promote blood circulation, enhance the body's immunity, and prevent various diseases. However, middle-aged and elderly people have reduced physical function and are not suitable for too strenuous exercise, so they can choose some exercise methods that suit them, such as walking, tai chi, etc.
3. Middle-aged and elderly people should also maintain good work and rest Xi. Adequate sleep can restore body functions and enhance the body's immunity. Middle-aged and elderly people should maintain a regular work and rest time, go to bed early and get up early, and avoid staying up late.
4. Middle-aged and elderly people should keep their mood happy. A good mood promotes good health and prevents various diseases. Middle-aged and elderly people should learn to regulate their emotions, maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, and avoid the influence of excessive anxiety, depression and other negative emotions.
5. Middle-aged and elderly people should have regular physical examinations. Physical examination can detect physical problems in time and treat them in time to avoid aggravation of the condition. Middle-aged and elderly people should have a comprehensive physical examination every year, including blood routine, urine routine, electrocardiogram, B-ultrasound and other items.
From "cure" to "prevention", it is time to change the concept
From "cure" to "prevent": changing perceptions towards a healthy future
In the traditional concept of medicine, we tend to focus on the treatment of diseases. However, with the progress of society and the improvement of health awareness, we need to shift from "cure" to "prevention" and change our perceptions.
The concept of "cure" is often to treat the disease after it has occurred, through drugs, surgery, etc. This notion can alleviate symptoms to some extent, but it often ignores disease prevention. The concept of "disease prevention" emphasizes the prevention of disease through a healthy lifestyle, reasonable diet, appropriate exercise, etc. before the disease occurs.
The shift from "cure" to "prevention" means that we need to focus more on prevention, rather than relying solely on treatment. This requires us to change our perception of health, raise health awareness, and take proactive preventive measures. For example, maintain a regular work and rest time, avoid staying up late and overwork, eat a reasonable diet and consume enough nutrients, exercise appropriately to enhance the body's immunity, quit smoking and limit alcohol, and reduce the damage to the body caused by bad Xi.
In addition, we also need to pay attention to mental health and maintain a positive and optimistic attitude. In the face of stress and setbacks, learn to regulate your emotions and avoid mental illness. At the same time, regular physical examinations and health check-ups are carried out to detect potential health problems in a timely manner and take effective measures to intervene and treat.
In short, the shift in mindset from "cure" to "prevention" is the key to a healthy future. By focusing on prevention, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and raising health awareness, we can better protect ourselves and our families' health and enjoy a better life.
