If you accumulate virtue, you will also accumulate longevity.

Psychologists' research shows that people who do good deeds live a long and healthy life, while those who often do bad deeds should not only calculate others, but also prevent others from plotting evil deeds, resulting in physical dysfunction, decreased immunity, and much higher morbidity and mortality than those who do good deeds. People often say that people who harm others and benefit themselves will lose their lives. This is a "short-lived ghost". This is not causal inference or karma, but the reason why people who harm others and benefit themselves lose their good mental state. On the matter, if you do more injustice, you will hang yourself; As far as life is concerned, many unfair behaviors hurt the body. This is based on science.

This is always the law of nature, and no one can resist it. The secret of longevity often depends on a correct outlook on life and a good attitude towards life. A person must have a good mental state if he wants to live a long life. Charity, that is, doing more good deeds, seems ordinary and insignificant, but it is actually a manifestation of physical and mental health. Sherf Martin, an American psychologist, calls loneliness a "time bomb", which may detonate a person's death at any time. Doing good is an activity that must be in contact with others. After doing well, loneliness will naturally disappear, which will help to alleviate or overcome the influence of negative emotions, balance the mentality and be beneficial to health.

The way of life of human beings is a group, which is both cooperative and competitive. Charity is the accumulation of virtue, and its essence is to treat others as friends, be kind to others, be willing to contribute, be anxious about others' urgent needs, help others' difficulties and help others wholeheartedly. In the process of helping others, my heart will be filled with gratifying pleasure, and I will firmly believe that my life is beneficial to others, thus enhancing my confidence in life. This mentality is balanced, so it is healthy. People with this mentality live a long life. As the ancients summed up, "cultivate morality first" and "goodness is the foundation of longevity". The philosophy is worth pondering.

Charity is the accumulation of virtue, which is conducive to stressing civilization, cultivating new styles, stressing morality and sublimity. From the point of view of medical treatment and fitness, it is also a life-saving grace to be charitable and treat others sincerely!

Eight secrets of longevity

1, "peace", not "war". The immune system of quarrelsome and hostile couples suppresses blood pressure and heart rate for 24 hours than that of harmonious couples. On the contrary, a happy marriage can protect health.

Adults should also be vaccinated. Experts believe that adults may suffer from such so-called "childhood diseases" if they have not been vaccinated against measles, mumps and rubella.

3. Have good family and interpersonal relationships.

4, sleep time can not be saved. Experts point out that sleeping 7-9 hours a day is extremely beneficial to health. Sleep time is also related to longevity. A survey by California Health Bureau found that people who sleep less than 6 hours a night are 70% more likely to die earlier than those who sleep 7-8 hours.

5. Pay attention to all kinds of information sent by the body. The human body will send some health information through pain and even through the weak intuition of the brain. We must pay attention to this point and not be careless.

6. Love your job. No job satisfaction can cause many diseases, such as headache, cold, indigestion, bronchitis and pneumonia.

7. Develop the so-called "Mediterranean diet", eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, vegetable oil and gluten-free food, and eat less meat and animal fat. Experts believe that this eating habit can largely prevent the occurrence of malignant diseases such as heart disease and cancer.

8. Have spiritual support.

How can we maintain health and longevity? It is generally believed that in addition to genetic factors, it is also important to avoid smoking, alcoholism, high cholesterol food and other risk factors. However, many scientists recently think that this is not enough; People must also cultivate personality characteristics and hygiene habits that are conducive to health and longevity. The following are eight things discovered by foreign scientists through the latest research, and people are required to do their best to live a long and healthy life:

1, "peace", not "war". A recent study of newlyweds by Ohio State University.

According to the survey of women, the blood pressure and heart rate of quarreling and hostile couples are suppressed for up to 24 hours than those of harmonious couples.

On the contrary, a happy marriage can protect health. Israel's recent survey of 65,438+00,000 people.

The survey of men found that if the wife is full of love and consideration for her husband, the incidence of chest pain is much lower even if the husband suffers from serious heart disease.

Experts also believe that moderate sexual life is of great benefit to health. Mike irfan, director of the American Institute for Advanced Studies in Human Sexual Activities, recently pointed out that sexual life can activate the human immune system and improve the pain valve. He believes that sex life is a natural analgesic and psychological stress reliever. In a recent study of 55,000 people, Mike irfan found that sexually active people are less anxious and hostile and healthier than sexually indifferent people. He believes that sexual life may be the most ideal preventive and therapeutic measure.

Adults should also be vaccinated. Experts believe that if adults have not been injected with measles and mumps,

There is also rubella, and they may suffer from this so-called "childhood disease". Gardner, a physician at new york State University, believes that adults should be vaccinated like children. According to the statistics of accountants, 50,000-70,000 adults in the United States die of influenza, pneumonia, complications of hepatitis B and other diseases that can be avoided by a dose of vaccine every year. According to statistics, in some western countries, influenza vaccine can reduce the incidence of young people by 70%-90%, and greatly reduce the chances of hospitalization and death of the elderly due to influenza.

At present, the public health department in the United States has required people over 65 years old or with cardiopulmonary problems and immune function problems.

Inject pneumonia vaccine into the injured person. According to statistics, this can reduce the incidence of 60%. In the United States, 200,000-300,000 people are infected with hepatitis B every year. Because there are13 cases of unexplained hepatitis B infection, the department requires everyone to be injected with hepatitis B vaccine.

3. Have good family and interpersonal relationships. Studies have found that people who live a long and healthy life often have some relatives.

Close friends also care about others. The study also found that good family and interpersonal relationships can make pregnant women more likely to give birth, enhance people's immune function, make smokers easier to quit smoking, make fitness programs easier to adhere to, and even help to overcome cancer. According to a survey conducted by Stanford University School of Medicine, if patients with advanced breast cancer participate in some group activities related to treatment every week, their survival time will be twice as long as that of patients who only receive treatment.

American health expert Dr. Suo Beier pointed out that lack of social support is as harmful to health as smoking and lack of exercise. A survey in California found that the less contact with others, the easier it is to die of heart disease, cerebral arteriosclerosis, cancer and other diseases.

Experts believe that the lack of friends can be made up by helping others. A recent survey of 3,300 volunteers in the United States showed that

The study of volunteers found that helpful people are healthier than others in both body and mind.

4, sleep time can not be saved. Experts point out that sleeping 7-9 hours a day is extremely beneficial to health. They realized that

Because lack of sleep not only makes people feel tired, but also makes people look at life negatively.

Sleep time is also related to longevity. A survey by the California Health Bureau found that sleeping less than 6 hours a night.

Some people are 70% more likely to die than those who sleep for 7-8 hours. Other studies have found that deep sleep is very beneficial to the immune system.

5. Pay attention to all kinds of information sent by the body. The human body will experience pain and so on, and even experience brain weakness.

Intuition sends out some health information. We must pay attention to this point and not be careless. A study found that people who pay close attention to their various "signals" are less sick than those who don't care about their health.

6. Love your job. No job satisfaction can cause many diseases, such as headache, cold and indigestion.

Not good, bronchitis and pneumonia. According to a survey, people who have been engaged in jobs they are not satisfied with 10 years are five times more likely to develop colon cancer and rectal cancer than those who love their jobs. However, not everyone can jump ship at will. What should I do if I encounter this situation? Cauchy, a psychologist at the University of Chicago in the United States, said

Kozan Mikhail pointed out that a satisfactory job must have the characteristics of diversity and challenge, which often lies not in the job itself, but in the subjective views of the people engaged in the job. Therefore, we should be good at finding the satisfactory side of our work, and change the negative attitude towards our work into a positive attitude when we can't change jobs.

7, develop the so-called eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, vegetable oil and gluten-free food, eat less meat and animal fat.

"Mediterranean eating habits". Experts believe that this eating habit can largely prevent the occurrence of malignant diseases such as heart disease and cancer.

8. Have spiritual support. In western society, more and more evidence shows that religious belief and health are related.

Intimate relationship. Recently, 22 surveys show that people who go to church regularly are unlikely to suffer from certain diseases, including stroke, heart disease, tuberculosis and other cancers. Scientists don't know the exact reason yet. They estimate that religious belief may help people form a healthier lifestyle, provide more social support, and ease people's psychological pressure more easily. They also speculate that hope and optimism may contribute to immune function.
