In recent years, with the continuous change of people's aesthetics, a slender and slender figure has become a "lifelong goal" pursued by many women, and Aunt Yao is no exception.
As a ballet dancer, she controls her weight almost all year round, and eats exactly what she eats every day, and she must never eat too much. Especially these two legs, if they are a little thicker, they will be exposed in their original shape when they wear dance clothes, Aunt Yao has more than ten years of experience in slimming legs, and I don't know how many little girls are envied by this pair of thin and long thighs.
But in recent days, Aunt Yao always felt a little chest tightness and shortness of breath, I thought it was caused by my dieting and weight loss, and I didn't pay much attention to it, but when dancing that day, Aunt Yao suddenly fainted, her lips were blue, and she was sent to the hospital, and the doctor diagnosed Aunt Yao as a sudden heart attack, which almost caused a life-threatening situation.
The doctor also warned Aunt Yao that her hungry and full lifestyle was a huge "test" for all organs in her body.
Since then, Aunt Yao has begun to pay more and more attention to maintaining her body, and she no longer dares to diet to lose weight.
These 5 places, whether they should be thick or not, should be thin or not fine, I am afraid that there is something wrong
1. The thigh circumference is too thin
Researchers at the University Hospital of Copenhagen in Denmark took physical measurements, including thigh circumference, on more than 2,700 volunteers. Over the course of more than a decade of follow-up surveys, more than 500 volunteers were found to have suffered from heart disease. Excluding other high-risk factors, the researchers compared volunteers who did not have heart disease and found that their thighs were all over 60 centimeters in circumference.
Researchers believe that the weight of the heart muscle may be proportional to the circumference of the thigh, and the thinner the thigh, the lighter the weight of the heart muscle, and the higher the probability of heart disease.
Studies have found that people with a thigh circumference of less than 60 cm may have twice the prevalence of heart disease and three times more mortality than others.
Some researchers have pointed out that thin thighs can easily cause heart disease or be related to abnormal fat distribution.
Due to the lack of muscle and fat in the thighs, too much fat may stay in inappropriate places such as cardiovascular and pancreas, which can lead to heart diseases and increase mortality.
Professor Yang Zhen of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine investigated the relationship between thigh circumference and blood pressure through the data of thigh circumference of 9,250 volunteers. The results showed that an increase in thigh circumference index was significantly associated with the prevalence of hypohypertension.
Professor Yang said this may be due to the fact that leg fat is more beneficial to metabolism, and the thigh area has more subcutaneous fat, which secretes various substances to help keep blood pressure in a relatively stable range.
Research in the journal Endocrine Connections suggests that for obese people, thicker thighs may mean a lower risk of high blood pressure and heart disease. Researchers at the German Diabetes Research Center similarly say that people with less leg fat have a worse metabolism.
In modern medical research, there is no clear clinical definition of thigh circumference and the risk of various potential diseases, but more and more studies on thigh circumference have shown that thigh muscles with moderate thickness are of great significance for supporting the human body and promoting metabolism.
2. The calves are crystal thick and strong
The lower leg is a body part that is far away from the centrifugation, and when there is a problem with blood circulation, the end of the limb is always the first to show clinical symptoms.
When there is a problem with the heart, such as valvular disease, heart failure, etc., due to the weakening of the heart muscle, the heart is unable to send blood to the lungs, and the blood flows into the veins, causing swelling of the legs.
Secondly, when there is inflammation in the lower leg, there is a build-up of fluid in the interstitial space outside the blood vessels, and when there is too much fluid accumulation, tissue edema appears. In most cases, phlebitis and other conditions involve swelling on one side. Peripheral vascular diseases, such as varicose veins, can lead to abnormal blood return in the distal veins, which manifests as swelling.
One of the most common manifestations of kidney disease is calf edema, which is caused by excessive loss of protein in the body, causing fluid to leak out of the blood vessels and into the body's tissues, thus inducing edema.
Therefore, for people who are dieting and slimming and lack protein, they will also be prone to calf edema.
3. Acromegaly
In adults, hypertrophy and widening of the ends of the fingers is most likely a sign of acromegaly.
Due to the abnormal secretion of the pituitary gland, which leads to the abnormal growth of bones and tissues at an inopportune time, but at this time the bone scales are completely closed, so too much pituitary growth hormone will cause acromegaly symptoms.
The occurrence of acromegaly may also lead to abnormal blood glucose, and due to the secretion of pituitary hormone, insulin resistance may be aggravated, aggravating the condition; patients with acromegaly should actively cooperate with the examination and treatment, pay attention to the changes in the condition, and seek medical attention if the condition worsens.
4. The neck is too thick
The muscular layer of the neck is weak, and if the neck is thickened and lumped, it usually indicates a thyroid problem.
Due to the excessive secretion of thyroid hormones, the thyroid follicle proliferates, resulting in an enlarged thyroid gland and causing Great Neck disease. However, hypothyroidism may also cause neck thickening, which is generally not as severe as hyperthyroidism, and can be diagnosed by routine thyroid examination and thyroid ultrasound.
Abnormal thyroid function can easily lead to a series of hormonal disorders in the body, so when there is a thickening of the neck, it is necessary to seek medical attention in time, and the recovery time of thyroid disease is long, and early detection and early treatment.
5. Widening of waist circumference
"General belly" and other descriptions of men's waist circumference thickened, not only affect the appearance, but also may be a sign of the beginning of the disease, such as high blood pressure, high blood lipids, high blood sugar and other diseases often appear first is obesity.
When excess nutrients in the body are synthesized into fat, and a part of them is deposited on the internal organs, and when the internal organs are overflew, the appearance of pot-bellied poop appears.
Studies have shown that men with a thicker waist circumference are four times more likely to develop diabetes than those with a normal waist circumference, and the incidence of hypertension is 50% higher than that of people of the same age.
For the female group, especially the elderly female group after menopause, some people may have a widening and thickening of the lower abdomen even if they are slim, and they must be tense at this time, and it is very likely that the ovaries, uterus and other reproductive parts have hyperplasia, tumors, etc., for example, when uterine fibroids appear, the waist circumference will become thicker, but this change is too slow, and it is easy for us to think that it is obesity and ignore it.
Studies have shown that women with a thicker waist circumference are more likely to die prematurely than women with a normal waist circumference. Therefore, when women have long-term waist thickening, they must seek medical attention in time to rule out the disease.
However, in order to cater to the pursuit of thinness and beauty in modern society, leg slimming has always been a hot topic of modern weight loss.
Healthy and thin legs, these points are enough
1. Soak your feet to reduce swelling
Modern workers, because of the long-term sitting position, the accumulated toxins and waste products in the legs will be trapped in the tissue fluid of the lower legs, resulting in the swelling of the lower legs and fatness.
Use a foot wash bucket deep enough to fill it with warm water, and add some bath salts if it is completely submerged over the calves. Soaking your feet and legs for about 15 minutes a day, combined with massage, can help achieve the effect of assisting in slimming legs.
2. Sleep to slim your legs
Leg edema is mostly caused by poor blood circulation throughout the body, which causes water to remain at the ends, causing edema. When sleeping, you can use a pillow or a thin quilt at the foot of the bed to raise a layer so that the legs are at the same height as the heart, which is conducive to the increase of blood flow back to the heart, promotes the replacement of systemic circulation, accelerates the end blood circulation, and indirectly plays a role in reducing swelling.
It should be noted that patients with underlying heart diseases should not choose this method, as it is easy to increase the burden on the heart and lead to recurrence of the disease.
3. Massage slim legs
Massage is the most direct and effective way to sculpt the body, stimulating blood and lymphatic circulation, promoting the elimination of toxins and eliminating edema. At the same time, it can also stimulate the acupuncture points on the legs, and also play a certain role in the overall regulation of the whole body.
The human body is an organic whole, the distribution of muscles has its meaning of existence, too fat or too thin will cause different degrees of damage to all parts of the body, so a healthy and well-proportioned body is a good guarantee for a healthy life.
Okay, one last question: how are you in shape? Are there any of these problems?
