"Your sudden illness has a lot to do with the health supplements you take every day." Doctor Director Wang looked at Aunt Zhang's examination report and said solemnly.
Aunt Zhang is a retired middle school teacher who is 61 years old. Recently, in order to maintain her health, she insisted on taking various health supplements every day, believing that this would enhance her physical fitness and prevent diseases.
However, just a few days ago, when she was buying fish at the vegetable market, she suddenly felt dizzy and weak, and finally fainted to the ground. Fortunately, Xiao Li, a nurse neighbor in the same building, happened to be present and immediately rushed her to the hospital.
After a detailed examination in the hospital, Director Wang found that Aunt Zhang's acute illness was directly related to the health care products she had been taking for a long time.
"Director Wang, I take health products every day for health, why did I get hospitalized instead?" Aunt Zhang looked puzzled.
Director Wang sighed and began to explain: "Health care products are not a panacea, and blind consumption may cause harm to the body. There are a few common mistakes you have made. ”
Dear readers, the author's income is so meager that he had to include a short 5-second ad in the text, and you can read the full text for free by watching it. I know it might be a little intimidating, but it does help me increase my income and keep writing. Your understanding is my biggest motivation, and I will try to bring more quality content!
In order to make Aunt Zhang more understanding, Director Wang decided to explain in detail: "First of all, health care products cannot replace drug treatment. Some people mistakenly believe that health products can cure all diseases, and as a result, normal medical treatment is delayed. ”
Director Wang gave an example. Mr. Li is a company executive who usually has a lot of work pressure and suffers from high blood pressure. In order to control his blood pressure, he began to take health supplements every day and ignored the blood pressure medication prescribed by the doctor. As a result, the blood pressure was not well controlled, which led to the deterioration of the condition and the end of the hospital. The doctor reminded him that health supplements should only be used as an adjunct and not as a substitute for medication.
Aunt Zhang nodded frequently when she heard this, thinking that she usually relied on health care products, ignoring the advice of some doctors, and this habit had to be changed.
"Secondly, excessive consumption of health supplements is harmful to the body." Director Wang continued, "Excessive intake of certain ingredients in health care products can cause a burden on organs such as the liver and kidneys, and even lead to poisoning. ”
In order to illustrate the problem more intuitively, Director Wang told the story of a young patient, Xiao Wang. Xiao Wang is a programmer, usually busy with work, and feels that his body needs to replenish nutrients, so he takes a large number of health products every day.
As a result, the body deteriorated and the liver function was found to be severely impaired. The doctor told him that an overdose of health supplements would hurt his body, and advised him to stop overdosing and slowly recover after a period of recuperation.
Aunt Zhang thought about it, and she usually eats a lot of health products, and suddenly felt that this habit really needed to be changed.
"Third, health supplements are not suitable for everyone." Director Wang continued, "Everyone's physical condition is different, and blindly following the trend of taking health care products may be counterproductive. ”
Director Wang also mentioned the situation of a patient, Xiao Zhang. Xiao Zhang is a sales manager, usually under high pressure at work, and often listens to friends recommend various health care products, but because he takes health care products that are not suitable for him, he leads to allergic reactions. The doctor advised her to consult a professional doctor before taking health supplements and choose the right health care products according to her own situation.
Aunt Zhang nodded frequently when she heard this, and decided to adjust her health care product taking habits when she went back to avoid blindly following the trend.
"In general, although health care products have certain health care effects, they must be used scientifically and reasonably." Director Wang said with a smile, "Aunt Zhang, you still have to pay attention to these misunderstandings, and you can't blindly believe in the 'miraculous effect' of health care products." ”
Aunt Zhang smiled: "It seems that I have to reconsider my habit of taking health supplements, otherwise there will be a big problem with my body sooner or later." ”
Director Wang nodded: "By the way, there is another point, pay attention to maintaining good living habits and avoid over-reliance on health products, which will help maintain the overall health of the body." ”
However, Aunt Zhang still has a question in her heart: "In addition to these misunderstandings, will the other health products we usually eat have an impact on our health?" ”
In fact, the question relates to the health impact of the choice of health supplements. In order to maintain good health, Auntie Zhang needs to pay attention to the following aspects when choosing and taking health supplements:
First of all, choose a regular brand of health supplements. Make sure that the source of health products is legitimate, and choose brands with reputable and reputable reputations to prevent the purchase of counterfeit and shoddy products.
Second, follow the advice of your doctor or dietitian. It is best to consult a professional doctor or dietitian before taking health supplements, choose suitable health care products according to your own health status, and avoid blindly following trends.
Also, maintain a balanced diet. Health supplements can only be used as a supplement to the diet, and cannot completely replace the normal diet. Maintaining a balanced diet and getting enough nutrients is the key to staying healthy.
In order to let Aunt Zhang understand better, Director Wang shared another case. Uncle Li is a retired worker, and he usually likes to listen to friends recommend various health care products, but he bought many kinds of health care products, but the effect is not good.
The doctor advised him to stop blindly buying health supplements, maintain a balanced diet, and choose suitable health supplements under the guidance of the doctor. A few months later, Uncle Li's health improved significantly.
Aunt Zhang nodded frequently and decided to adjust her health care product habits when she went back, choose regular brands, follow the doctor's advice, and maintain a balanced diet.
"In general, maintaining health requires comprehensive management, choosing a regular brand of health products, following the advice of a doctor or dietitian, and maintaining a balanced diet." Director Wang said with a smile.
Aunt Zhang smiled: "It seems that I have to reconsider my habit of taking health supplements, otherwise my health will have problems sooner or later." ”
Director Wang nodded: "By the way, there is another point, pay more attention to maintaining good living habits, avoid over-reliance on health products, maintain adequate sleep and moderate exercise, which will help maintain the overall health of the body." ”
Aunt Zhang thought to herself, it seems that there is more research on these healthy lifestyles, after all, physical health is the most important thing.
The two chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they arrived at the gate of the community. Aunt Zhang secretly calculated in her heart, and when she got home, she would tell her family the advice that the doctor said today, so that everyone should pay attention to drinking water and a healthy way of life, and stay away from diseases.
Back at home, Aunt Zhang began to prepare dinner and shared the words of the doctor Director Wang with her wife, and both of them felt that they had benefited a lot.
