"Huangdi Neijing" records: ancient people, spring and autumn are 100 years old, and the end of the day. When people are over 100 years old, they can live beyond the age of nature. In today's society, with the continuous progress of science and technology, medical level, people's concept of daily health, many people's life has been extended. So, what are the characteristics of long-lived people?
Life span is the maximum length of human life. This length is about 110-115 years old; some studies have concluded that it is about 5-7 times of a person's growth period. On the one hand, the length of life is restricted by the social and economic conditions and the level of health and medical treatment, and there are great differences in different periods of society; on the other hand, due to the individual differences in physique, genetic factors, habits, living conditions and other individual differences, the length of life varies greatly. The average life expectancy index is often used to reflect the length of life, and sometimes the median life expectancy is also calculated. Life expectancy is one of the important indexes to measure the quality of population.
People with a long life span usually have "2 hard and 2 soft". Even if you have one, you are still healthy
2 hard:
1. Hard bone
Bone, supporting people's body, strong bones, it means that bone density is high, bone is not easy to lose, not easy to be injured.
This is because the mineral content in human bones reaches the highest value at the age of 30, and then with the increase of age, bone begins to slowly lose and enter the stage of natural aging.
If the skeleton is still strong, it means that the body is still healthy and has a long-term physique.
2. Hard teeth
A healthy hard tooth, will let the food in the mouth, chew fully, is good for health.
Oral experts, according to years of research results found that tooth loose, missing more people, the average life span, than healthy teeth, 10-20 years shorter!
It can be seen that the quality of teeth is also an important basis for judging the length of life.
2 soft:
1. Soft Liver
A healthy liver is soft and elastic, touching like a lip.
Once the liver is damaged and the function is decreased, it will lead to liver "hardening" and form cirrhosis, which seriously endangers human health.
Smoking, drinking, overeating, staying up late and sitting down will accelerate the process of liver hardening.
2. Vascular weakness
As the saying goes, people live with blood.
In other words, the health of blood vessels directly affects the length of life.
Especially after middle age, blood vessels will gradually become hard and brittle, lose elasticity, and then, the ability to control blood pressure will become worse, and the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases will follow.
Therefore, if you can keep the blood vessels "soft" and elastic, it means that your blood vessels are still healthy, and your body is not bad.
To be healthy and live longer: to prevent three diseases, you need to have three partners.
1. Respiratory diseases
When people are middle-aged, they are prone to respiratory diseases.
For example, air pollution, smoking, lampblack and so on are all factors that cause respiratory diseases, and even lead to hypoxia and respiratory impact.
If after middle age, the respiratory system is good, indicating that the physical condition is not bad.
measures:
1. Frequent ventilation
Summer arrived, many office workers in the office blowing air conditioning, a sit is a whole day.
Little do you know, often closed doors and windows blowing air conditioning, will make indoor dirty air, become a hotbed of influenza breeding and transmission.
If you are attacked by virus, it will not only cause respiratory infection, but also induce asthma attack.
Therefore, unless the air quality is poor, do not open the window, usually it is best to keep ventilation, open more windows to receive fresh air.
2. Abdominal breathing
Abdominal breathing adopts lying, sitting and standing exercises in the way of "breathing drum, exhaling and shrinking";
Put one hand in front of the chest and the other on the abdomen. The abdomen should be retracted as far as possible. When inhaling, the abdomen should be inflated against the pressure of the hands. The exhalation time should be twice as long as the inspiratory time.
This method can enhance abdominal movement, improve ventilation distribution and prevent respiratory diseases.
2. Gastrointestinal diseases
Food is the most important thing for people. The digestion and absorption of food mainly depends on good gastrointestinal function.
However, with the increase of age, gastrointestinal digestive fluid flow began to decline, the probability of constipation will increase.
Therefore, if you want to live a long life, you must first live a long life!
measures:
1. Pressing acupoints frequently
Tianshu point: it is the main point in the abdomen. It is located at 2 inches beside the navel. It is two symmetrical points.
Daily use of the hands of the middle finger, point pressure on this point. Once a day for 3 minutes.
Function: it plays the role of dispersing and regulating the bowels, regulating qi and promoting stagnation and digestion.
2. Less sedentary
Often sedentary people, gastrointestinal peristalsis will be weakened, abdominal cavity, pelvic, lumbosacral blood circulation will be blocked, leading to the decline of intestinal immune barrier function.
Therefore, in daily life, to moderate exercise, every day adhere to jogging half an hour can.
In this way, not only can improve human immunity, disease resistance, but also reduce the risk of gastrointestinal lesions.
3. Diabetes
The epidemiological survey of diabetes and metabolic syndrome in China shows that the incidence of diabetes in men is twice as much as that in women.
And diabetes patients, mainly concentrated in 50 years old, 60 years old is the peak incidence.
Diabetes is not terrible, but complications, which can lead to chronic damage and dysfunction of various tissues, especially eyes, kidneys, heart, blood vessels and nerves.
measures:
1. Hypoglycemic effect of Yangchi point
Location: located in the wrist dorsal striation, it is one of the commonly used acupoints of Shaoyang Sanjiao meridian.
With the middle finger of one hand, press the Yangchi point of the other hand. When stimulating this point, the action should be slow and the manipulation should be gentle.
Function: Modern commonly used in the treatment of diabetes, forearm pain, numbness, wrist arthritis, etc.
2. Hypoglycemic effect of dried mulberry leaves
In Shennong's herbal classic, dried mulberry leaves are called "immortal leaves", which are used in clinic as the treatment of diabetes (diabetes in modern medicine).
Studies at home and abroad have confirmed that dried mulberry leaves have the effect of reducing blood sugar, alkaloids can inhibit the role of enzymes in the process of glucose metabolism, and polysaccharides can promote the analysis of insulin by β - cells, thus promoting the utilization of sugar by cells, so as to achieve the hypoglycemic effect.
If the dried mulberry leaves and yellow flower seedlings are combined to make yellow flower seedling dry mulberry tea, the effect will be greatly improved.
This is because many studies have shown that insulin resistance is closely related to inflammation.
Huanghuamiao contains a broad spectrum of anti-inflammatory components, known as "natural antibiotics", widely used in multi system inflammatory related diseases.
In addition, it also has certain hypoglycemic effect, which is helpful for postprandial blood glucose control.
3. Sleep hypoglycemic
Scientific research shows that people who sleep less than six hours a night are 4.5 times more likely to develop insulin resistance than those who get enough sleep.
Therefore, it can be said that lack of sleep is one of the causes of diabetes!
Therefore, whether or not hyperglycemia, daily to ensure adequate sleep, every night before 11 o'clock on time to sleep.
To live long and healthy: have three company
1. Laugh together
Laughter is a good medicine!
Smile, can mobilize 53 muscles, a total of more than 5000 expressions;
Smile, can relieve pressure, improve body immunity.
Smile, can also improve the level of endorphin, increase the oxygen content in the blood vessels, is the most natural, no side effect analgesic.
2. Companionship
Australian studies have found that making friends is good for longevity.
This is because, friends, can give you care, give you care.
When we are enjoying the support of our friends, you will find that the pressure is much less instantly.
3. Moving with each other
As the saying goes, if you move, you will not decline; if you use it, you will not retreat; life lies in movement!
People who persist in sports will not be in poor health.
This is because exercise can improve immunity, promote blood circulation, expel toxins from the body, and enhance cardiopulmonary function.
Middle aged and elderly people can engage in some labor or sports within their ability, such as dancing, walking, Taiji, etc.
