We usually say that we are sick, but in ancient times, the meanings of "disease" and "disease" were different. "Disease" refers to a minor illness (disease) that is not easy to detect. If effective measures are not taken, it will develop to a visible level, which is the so-called "disease". This sick state is called "sub-health" or "third state" in modern science and "not sick" in traditional Chinese medicine.
"No disease" is not no disease, nor is it a visible serious illness. According to the viewpoint of traditional Chinese medicine, the body has been in an unbalanced state of yin and yang, qi and blood, viscera and health. Our ancestors have long realized that with diseases, in addition to actively looking for ways to eliminate diseases, they have accumulated many measures to prevent diseases. One day in Huangdi Neijing: "The sage has been cured before his illness, the husband's illness has been cured, and the chaos has been cured. Isn't it too late to cross the well and fight for soldiers? " It can be seen that our ancestors have realized the importance of "preparing for a rainy day" to diseases.
Sub-health in modern medicine
[Edit this paragraph]
Sub-health refers to non-disease and unhealthy state, which is a sub-health state (meaning sub-health) and a state between health and disease, so it is also called sub-health, third state, intermediate state, free (dynamic) state and gray state. It is a state of low physiological function between disease and health, and sub-health is also a precursor of many diseases, such as hepatitis, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, metabolic diseases and so on. Sub-health people generally have six highs and one low, that is, high load (psychological and physical strength), hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, high weight and low immune function.
After careful study, sub-health is a big concept, which includes several successive stages. Among them, the one closely adjacent to health can be called "mild psychosomatic disorder", which is often manifested as fatigue, insomnia, loss of appetite, emotional instability and so on. But these obstacles are easy to recover, and they are no different from healthy people after recovery. About 25% ~ 28% of the population.
If the disease continues to develop, it can enter a "potential clinical" state. At this time, it has shown a high-risk tendency to develop into a certain disease, and it is very likely to develop into a certain disease. In the population, more than 1/3 people are in this state, and the proportion of people over 40 years old has increased sharply. Its manifestations are complex, which can be chronic fatigue or persistent psychosomatic disorder, including the above symptoms lasting for more than 2 months, often accompanied by chronic sore throat, repeated colds, listlessness and so on. Some experts also summarized its complicated performance into three types: decreased vitality, decreased responsiveness and decreased adaptability. From the clinical test, this kind of people in cities tend to be "three highs and one low", that is, they have near critical levels of hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, high blood viscosity and low immune function.
In addition, at least 10% or more people are between the latent clinic and the disease, which can be called "pre-clinical" state, that is to say, the disease has occurred, but the symptoms are not obvious or have not attracted enough attention, or they have not sought diagnosis, or even if the doctor has made an examination, they have not been found out for some time. Strictly speaking, the last category is not sub-health, but a sick and unhealthy state, which just needs a clear diagnosis. Therefore, excluding this part of the population, many researchers believe that sub-health people account for about 60% of the population.
Studies at home and abroad show that only about 15% of the total population meets the health standards in modern society. Interestingly, about 15% people were diagnosed as sick and in an unhealthy state. If health and disease are regarded as two ends of the life process, then it is like an olive with two pointed ends, with a large piece protruding in the middle, which is in the transitional state of health and disease-sub-health.
Consequences of sub-health
[Edit this paragraph]
Sub-health is a critical state. Although there is no definite disease, people in sub-health state have decreased mental vitality and adaptability. If this state cannot be corrected in time, it is very easy to cause psychosomatic diseases. Include psychological disorders, gastrointestinal diseases, hypertension, coronary heart disease, cancer, sexual dysfunction, burnout, inattention, irritability, insomnia, poor digestive function, loss of appetite, abdominal distension, palpitation, chest tightness, constipation, diarrhea, feeling very tired and even death. But there is no organ problem in the physical examination, so it is mainly a functional problem. People in sub-health state are not life-threatening except fatigue and discomfort. However, if you encounter high stimulation, such as staying up late and losing your temper, you will easily die suddenly. This is "overwork death".
"Karoshi"-a comprehensive disease, refers to that in the process of non-physiological labor, people's normal work and life rules are destroyed, fatigue accumulates in the body and shifts to overwork, which makes blood pressure rise and arteriosclerosis worse, which leads to fatal state.

How to get rid of the trouble of sub-health?
[Edit this paragraph]
Ensure a reasonable diet and balanced nutrition. Among them, vitamins and minerals are essential nutrients for human body; Vitamin A can promote the synthesis of glycoprotein. Protein on the surface of cell membrane is mainly glycoprotein, and immunoglobulin is also glycoprotein. Nowadays, urbanites don't want to eat pork liver. It is rich in vitamins, vitamin A intake is insufficient, respiratory epithelial cells lack resistance, and it is often easy to get sick.
The human body cannot synthesize vitamins and minerals, but vitamins C, B and iron are particularly important to the human body, so it is necessary to supplement multivitamin tablets properly every day. In addition, trace elements such as zinc, selenium, vitamin B 1, B2, etc. Are related to the nonspecific immune function of human body.
Adjust mental state and keep positive and optimistic; A wide range of hobbies will benefit people, not only for self-cultivation, but also for the auxiliary treatment of some psychological diseases. Be kind to stress, regard stress as an inseparable part of life, learn to decompress moderately, and ensure a healthy and good mood.
Adjust the law of life in time, combine work and rest to ensure adequate sleep; Moderate work and rest is the mother of health, the normal operation of human biological clock is the guarantee of health, and the "wrong point" of biological clock is the beginning of sub-health.
Increase outdoor physical exercise activities and ensure a certain amount of exercise every day; Modern people are keen on city life, busy with their careers, and have less and less time for physical exercise. Strengthening self-exercise can improve the body's resistance to diseases.
Smoking cessation and alcohol restriction: Medical proof shows that when smoking, human blood vessels are prone to spasm, blood supply to local organs is reduced, and the supply of nutrients and oxygen is reduced, especially the respiratory mucosa is not supplied with oxygen and nutrients, and the disease resistance is also reduced. Drinking less is good for health. Excessive drinking, drunkenness and alcoholism will reduce human immune function and must be strictly restricted.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment of Sub-health
[Edit this paragraph]
After careful study, sub-health is a big concept, which includes several successive stages. Among them, the one closely adjacent to health can be called "mild psychosomatic disorder", which is often manifested as fatigue, insomnia, loss of appetite, emotional instability and so on. But these obstacles are easy to recover, and they are no different from healthy people after recovery. About 25% ~ 28% of the population.
In recent years, the international medical community has put forward a new concept of "sub-health", which means that although there is no definite disease, the body does show a physiological state of reduced vitality and adaptability to varying degrees. This state is caused by the low physiological function and metabolic process function of various systems of the body, and it is a state of low physiological function between health and disease, which is also called "third state" or "gray state" abroad. At present, the recognized sub-health state has a wide range, which can be summarized as long-term physical and psychological discomfort that is difficult to diagnose. From the clinical practice of preventive medicine, clinical medicine, especially psychiatry, it is found that there are quite a few people in this state. Aging, fatigue syndrome, neurasthenia, menopausal syndrome and the recovery period of serious illness and chronic disease all belong to the category of "sub-health". The main reasons of sub-health state are the decline of human organ function and physical and mental discomfort, such as fatigue, irritability, headache, insomnia, chest tightness and so on. However, various instruments and biochemical tests are difficult to diagnose, and sub-health state is likely to develop into various diseases. Because the sub-health state itself is a manifestation of overall dysfunction, TCM treatment is unique.
