First, adjust the spirit. The spiritual maintenance of elderly men focuses on nourishing the heart, calming the nerves and being optimistic. Sun Simiao's "Thousand Daughters Wing" said: "The important thing is to provide for the aged. It is good that the old man can listen, speak, move and think. " As the saying goes, "smile, one less; If you are bored, you will be old. " Old people have nothing to do at ordinary times, so it's no harm to close their eyes and relax. They have no desire, no distractions, no worries, less thoughts and more anger.
Second, be careful in daily life. Old people should follow the four seasons, avoid cold and heat, live carefully, live regularly, and not be addicted to alcohol and tobacco. At the same time, they should also pay attention to the following points: 1 Ensuring less sleep is a big problem for old men, so ensuring enough sleep time and sleeping sweetly and comfortably is an important part of their health preservation. "Huashan Chu Shi is like a guest, and I can't sleep without looking for a fairy" is a famous poem seeking scientific sleep methods. There is a lot of knowledge about sleep, and older men want to sleep for a relatively long time.
2, often basking in the sun, Chinese medicine believes that heaven and man correspond, and the sunshine in nature can nourish the human yang. British experts also believe that nude sunbathing can prolong life, improve the level of human hormones, enhance sexual function and treat many chronic diseases. Therefore, elderly men should sunbathe regularly to supplement the yang and keep fit.
3. Old people who wash their feet before going to bed often suffer from yin deficiency and yang hyperactivity, with excess in the upper body and deficiency in the lower body, with hot water to wash their feet before going to bed, so as to keep the balance between yin and yang. Besides, washing feet with hot water has many functions. Japanese experts Chai Tian and Germany observed that internal organs have corresponding protrusions under the soles of feet. Massage the feet when washing feet can prevent and treat various chronic diseases of the elderly, resist aging and prolong life.
Third, do not indulge. After the age of 50, men's testicles gradually shrink, but they still have some sexual desire. Studies have found that 73.63% of the elderly men aged 60-69 have sexual needs, but the elderly men are essentially weak and cannot indulge their sexual desires. As Shou Shi Bao Yuan said: "People are old and weak in blood and full of yang, so they must be cautious and restrained ... If they don't control their indulgence, the fire will go out and the oil will be worse." Modern research believes that frequent ejaculation will inevitably increase the burden of testis, inhibit the secretion of anterior pituitary hormones in a feedback way, and lead to testicular atrophy. Testicular atrophy will accelerate aging. Some people have done animal experiments, the testicles of animals have been removed, and animals will soon age. Therefore, the elderly should abstain from sex and preserve their sperm. However, abstinence does not mean abstinence, and proper sex life is also beneficial to health.
Fourth, a reasonable diet. The Book of Care for the Aged says: "When people are old, their true qi is exhausted and their five internal organs are weak, they all rely on diet to enrich their qi and blood." Therefore, the diet of elderly men is diversified. In the recipe, rice, cereals and beans are the staple foods, and all kinds of meat and vegetables are non-staple foods, supplemented by all kinds of fruits. Because the spleen and stomach are weak and the digestive function is poor after old age, we should pay special attention to eating easily digestible food. Mainly light vegetarian food, not too salty and greasy.
Old people should also avoid satiety, excessive entertainment, smoking, drinking tea and coffee, and pay attention to comfortable environment at night, clean bedroom and good air circulation, which is beneficial to the body. If conditions permit, you can wipe your body with warm water or take a bath with hot water. Take off your coat before going to bed and change your underwear in time. If possible, you can wear a loose coat, keep the bedding clean, dry it often, keep it dry and sterilize it.

In addition, correct health care work is conducive to a better life for the elderly, so the elderly should study hard and adopt these methods. The correct method is beneficial to the elderly and their children, and can also reduce the burden of caring for the elderly. Finally, I wish you good health!
