Not only China people attach importance to health preservation, but foreigners also attach importance to health preservation. After decades of research, a medical expert in Germany recently warned middle-aged and elderly people that if they want to live a long and healthy life, they must make good use of the seven words "guarantee, live, transfer, participate, sleep, adjust and listen".

"Protecting" means keeping the brain active, so middle-aged and elderly people should use their brains more, such as reading newspapers and books, drawing and playing chess, and cultivating hobbies in all aspects. Research shows that the 65-year-old people who often use their brains are no worse than the 35-year-old people who don't like to use their brains.

"Living" means moving your fingers. As the saying goes, fingers are handy, and frequent finger movements can stimulate the two hemispheres of the brain, which has the functions of strengthening the brain, improving intelligence and delaying brain aging.

"Turn" is a movement that changes different properties. After long-term monotonous work or reading and writing, we should change other activities of different nature in time, so that the brain nerves can be relaxed without excessive fatigue, and the brain power can be kept in the best state. Walking and doing gymnastics are good ways to change activities.

"Participation" means participating in social activities and sports activities, making young friends, thus accepting the infection of youthful vitality, always maintaining a happy mood and getting rid of the isolated living environment. Active and interesting sports activities can promote the elimination of fatigue, strengthen the body and improve health.

"Sleep" means to have a good sleep and ensure adequate sleep. Middle-aged and elderly people should learn to live regularly, arrange work and rest time reasonably, and ensure 8 hours of sleep every day (about 10 hours for the elderly).

"Tune" means to adjust the diet to match the thickness, mix meat and vegetables, eclectic, eat more red dates, milk, soybean milk, egg yolk, mulberry, mustard, sesame, walnut, lily, pig brain, pig heart, fungus and most fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins and minerals; Eat less animal fat and sugary food.

"Listening" means listening to beautiful and moving songs. Beautiful melody can adjust the function of the central nervous system and make people feel relaxed and happy.

Five points of middle-aged health care and recuperation

After middle age, people's physical condition begins to change, and they are often no longer competent for high-intensity work as they were when they were young, and it is easier to "break down from constant overwork".

Middle-aged people can still have the energy to adapt to new changes as long as they make necessary adjustments in their eating habits, lifestyle and psychological state. In life, we can make appropriate adjustments from the following aspects.

Get rid of bad habits from diet

The basal metabolic rate of middle-aged people shows a downward trend, so middle-aged people should pay attention to controlling diet, eating less sweets and exercising properly to prevent obesity and overweight. Because obesity can lead to hypertension, coronary heart disease, diabetes, malignant tumor and other diseases.

The digestive system of middle-aged people is also beginning to show aging changes, so we should eat regularly and quantitatively, don't overeat, don't be partial to food, don't eat snacks, don't eat too much refined food, eat more fruits and fresh vegetables, don't eat too much salt, quit smoking and drink less.

Weight must be controlled.

In modern society, people don't have to worry about food and clothing, and the number of "big fat people" caused by uncontrolled diet has increased greatly. Obesity puts a heavy burden on people's bodies, even in the end.

In addition, obesity can easily induce many diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes.

So the cardiologist's conclusion is that people should pay attention to prevent obesity from middle age (about 35 years old). Besides paying attention to a balanced diet, daily exercise is the only rule to control weight.

Exercise should be moderate

When people reach middle age, their physical strength and energy begin to decline, and they are afraid of fatigue and easy to be lazy. Walking, jogging, climbing stairs and other physical exercises can enhance physical fitness and general disease resistance, and can consume excess energy to maintain weight stability. However, too intense sports and some straddle-riding sports, such as intense competitive sports and long-term riding, are harmful to middle-aged people and should be restrained and avoided as much as possible.

The cardiopulmonary function of middle-aged people is also gradually declining. Therefore, don't take part in excessive physical labor and strenuous exercise, and avoid high mental tension to prevent sudden death due to arrhythmia and cardiac arrest. It is not advisable to change the body position suddenly, such as standing suddenly after squatting for a long time to prevent fainting. Do more outdoor activities and breathe fresh air.

Emotion needs to be stable

Middle-aged people have many trivial family matters, heavy work tasks and are prone to mood swings. When people are angry, their mood changes dramatically, their sympathetic nerves are extremely excited, their adrenaline secretion increases, their heart beats faster, their blood pressure rises, their blood circulation in the body is not smooth, and the normal physiological functions of various organs are disturbed, which is easy to induce gastrointestinal ulcers, hypertension, coronary heart disease and so on.

Be indifferent to fame and fortune, don't work too hard and be too competitive for money, fame and status. Bad mood will not only lead to various diseases, but also affect family relations.

"Sexual interest" is moderate

A harmonious and happy sex life is beneficial to people's spirit, health and longevity. Therefore, in daily life, we should constantly draw closer the relationship between husband and wife and pay attention to the rationality and moderation of sexual life.

Avoid being absent-minded during sexual life; Don't force yourself to have sex when your physical strength and energy are poor; Reduce the frequency of sexual life appropriately, so that sexual energy can be stored to a certain extent; For hypogonadism, short-term androgen supplementation can enhance sexual function, but it must be carried out under the guidance of a specialist.
