Men are only eight or eight, women are only seven or seven, which originated from Huangdi Neijing, so this sentence has a great connection with medicine. July 7th and August 8th correspond to the age of human beings, but it should be noted that July 7th refers to the age of 49 for women and August 8th refers to the age of 64 for men. In fact, this is the summary of the ancients. They read the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic and said that the man's physical function basically declined at the age of 64, and the woman's physical function also declined at the age of 49.
The human body changes periodically. This man's body is eight years old. In the first cycle, that is, at the age of eight, men's bodies began to grow taller and their teeth gradually changed. The second cycle, the body is developed, the third cycle, and the fourth cycle, the human body functions uphill. In the fifth cycle, male physical function declines, and in the eighth cycle, he is 64 years old.
After men, let's talk about women. Women's physical cycle is one year less than that of men. In other words, the female body is a cycle of seven years. The first four cycles are uphill, and human function will reach its peak. By the fifth cycle, the body function will decline and the face will get old. In the seventh cycle, women's bodies will be in a state of old age.
Of course, modern people pay great attention to health preservation, maintain it well, and have a high level of modern medical care. It doesn't matter if the body arrives on July 7 or August 8. It is most important to keep a good attitude.
