Modern people live longer, and the age of 30-40 belongs to a "young" period of vigor and vitality. Zou Weilun, a Chinese doctor, said that if we have begun to know how to pay attention to anti-aging and health preservation at this stage, we should pay attention to "nourishing yin" and "detoxification".
Since the age of 30-40 is the period of getting married and starting a career, Wu Mingzhu, honorary chairman of the Chinese Meridian Beauty Medical Association and a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, pointed out that most people should not only be busy with their own careers, but also play a continuous role in bearing and nurturing children. The key point of anti-aging should be nourishing blood and benefiting qi, balancing yin and yang, with special emphasis on maintaining the balance of qi and blood of the five internal organs, especially the liver, spleen and kidney, which can not be ignored.
In terms of diet, Zou Weilun said that although people in this age group will pay attention to eating less than before, the eating pattern of "eating to the full" is still similar to the past. They don't realize that their metabolism has slowed down slightly compared with the peak in their twenties, thinking that they can still eat well. In fact, there has been a phenomenon that the stomach can't eat, and the digestion and absorption function of the stomach is not like that.
Run Chang shun qi Hao pai du
In view of this stage of life, Zou Weilun believes that besides nourishing yin, it is also necessary to achieve the purpose of detoxification by moistening the intestines and smoothing the qi, so that the gastrointestinal function can be well maintained and urination and defecation can be as smooth as usual. Not only should you exercise more, but you should also match it with medicated diet and smooth tea instead of special nourishing tea.
The anti-aging and disease prevention measures of this age group should be based on "continuous endurance". Zou Weilun suggested that Chinese herbal medicines such as Cordyceps sinensis, Ligustrum lucidum, tortoise, soft-shelled turtle, American ginseng, sesame and medlar can be eaten for nourishing yin.

Western medicine view-the key to anti-aging-protecting eyes and liver
From the age of 35, the slope will increase and the aging will decline faster. Some changes can already be seen from the appearance, including presbyopia, a little white hair and decreased physical strength.
These aging changes may account for 50 ~ 70% of the congenital genes, which can be observed from family history and further information can be learned from health examination. Ding suggested that at the age of 39 ~ 40, you might as well do a complete basic health examination to find out which parts of yourself are weak and need to be strengthened.
At the age of 30 ~ 40, protecting eyes and liver is a very important part of anti-aging and disease prevention. During this period, frequent attention to 3C products such as mobile phones can easily lead to eye degeneration, dryness and even retinopathy-related diseases. It is best to avoid excessive use of eyes, occasionally close your eyes and look at the distance, let your eyes have a rest or do some eye exercises moderately, so as to avoid eye muscle fatigue and premature presbyopia. You can take enough lutein from vegetables and other foods, and if necessary, you can also eat lutein and other health foods to supplement it.
Sleep well, liver detoxification works normally.
Lutein is one of the elements in carotenoids, and coexists with zeaxanthin, which can prevent common macular diseases in the eyes of the elderly, protect the retina from light damage, and prevent senile cataract and retinopathy.
When maintaining the most important liver for detoxification, we should first pay attention to sleep. Ding said that from the perspective of western medicine, growth hormone is at its peak from the afternoon of 10 to 2 am. After puberty, growth hormone plays a role in repairing organs. If you can have a good deep sleep, you can repair the body organs without aging too fast, and you can also make the liver, the most important "detoxification factory" of the human body, work normally.
In the aspect of liver-protecting diet, the most important thing is to avoid eating pesticides or too many artificial additives. Therefore, the ingredients should be natural, and the principle of pursuing safety, cleanliness and hygiene is more important than paying attention to taste, so as to avoid the burden on the liver over time.
Nourishing blood and benefiting qi and balancing yin and yang from the perspective of nutrition
In the early aging stage after the age of 30, in addition to the slight deterioration of eye vision, Huang Shuhui, a nutritionist at the Postal Hospital, pointed out that the skin will be dry and keratinized, and it is easy to get tired due to the heavy work pressure.
30 ~ 40 years old, the digestion and absorption of nutrition is the most important. In order to strengthen the gastrointestinal function, it is recommended to choose ingredients that can help digestion. The staple food can be cereals, yam, coix seed and other digestive foods, or yellow ingredients such as lotus root, lotus seed, pumpkin and sweet potato can be used instead of starch staple food, or hawthorn can be used to cook tea or eat it to help appetizers.
In terms of eye protection, you can eat more red and yellow fruits and vegetables containing vitamin A and beta carotene to help maintain your eyesight; Supplement whole grains, milk, nuts and beans containing vitamin B2 to avoid eye fatigue and photophobia. Some people have eye socket pain, so vitamin B 1 and B 12 should be supplemented to help nerve conduction. B 1 can come from brown rice and germ rice, and B 12 is rich in egg yolk and lean meat. DHA in egg yolk also helps the retina. Chinese herbal medicines such as chrysanthemum, medlar and cassia seed are also beneficial to eye repair.
In skin care, Huang Shuhui believes that vitamin A should be supplemented to assist the moisturizing effect of skin collagen and avoid keratinization; Eat more lean meat, eggs, beans and nuts containing nicotinic acid to avoid seborrheic dermatitis. People who are busy eating should avoid partial eclipse, eat less processed food and take more vitamin B group from natural food to reduce the probability of neuritis, angular stomatitis and bad skin.
In addition, you can eat more nuts such as cashews, almonds and pumpkin seeds to supplement mineral zinc to help maintain physical strength and energy; And you can eat more rhizomes, seaweed and mushrooms grown in the soil to supplement trace element selenium, help eliminate free radicals in the body and help fight aging.
