At the age of 50, people are over 500, and the body has entered an "inflection point".

Some people say: Before the age of 50, I exchanged my body for money; After 50 years old, it is to exchange money for the body.

This is because, after the age of 50, the physical function declines rapidly, and the body is prone to various "small problems".

At this time, it has entered the "longevity period" of the body. If you can take good care of your health, you may live a long life.

At the age of 50, all parts of the body begin to decline at an accelerated rate.

As a result, various "small problems" continue, and even a variety of "small problems" will break out at the same time.

At this time, we must take good care of our health and minimize the occurrence of diseases in order to lay the foundation for longevity.

After the age of 50, it is the "life maintenance period" of the body. Protect these six places and lay the foundation for health and longevity.

The first one: legs

If the body is compared to a machine, then the "leg" is the motor that provides power.

From the age of 20, if you don't take active exercise, you may lose 5% muscle tissue and calcium every 10 year.

It is not difficult to find in life that almost all long-lived old people walk steadily and walk like the wind, which is a sign of vitality.

Therefore, after 50 years old, you must take good care of your legs and make your leg muscles strong, which can help you live longer.

Countermeasures: dry cleaning legs

Hold a thigh tightly with both hands and massage it down from the thigh to the ankle with a little force.

Then, massage from ankle to thigh root, and massage the other leg in the same way. Repeat 10-20 times.

Doing this often can make joints flexible, enhance leg muscles and walking ability, and contribute to leg health.

The second one: the intestine

Intestine is the largest immune organ in human body.

Studies have found that 90% of human diseases are related to unclean intestines.

With the increase of age, the digestive function will decline and the intestine will age.

After the age of 55, the number of beneficial bacteria in the intestine began to decrease greatly.

Once the intestinal function becomes worse, it will be troubled by constipation and poor defecation, which will endanger health.

Therefore, after the age of 50, we must maintain the intestines, moisten the intestines and relieve constipation, and reduce the occurrence of intestinal diseases.

Countermeasures: replenish more water

Water is one of the important factors to keep the intestines clean and lubricated.

Supplementing more water can also promote intestinal detoxification, which is of great benefit to protecting intestinal health.

Warm boiled water, 35-40 degrees Celsius, is the favorite temperature of gastrointestinal tract. Try not to drink cold water.

In addition to boiled water, it is also a good choice to use some small plants to moisten intestines and detoxify and soak water instead of tea.

Plant tea, better than boiled water and healthier than drinks, is a good choice for maintaining intestines.

Puguding chicory tea, soaked in water instead of tea, can promote intestinal detoxification, improve intestinal flora and contribute to intestinal health.

Puguding, which can be seen everywhere, is called "detoxification grass", which helps the human body to detoxify. In addition, it can promote digestion and is beneficial to intestinal health.

Chicory is a small plant that can be used as medicine and food. Its rhizome is rich in fructooligosaccharides.

This is a kind of "indigestible" oligosaccharide, which cannot be digested and absorbed in human small intestine, but can be fermented by microorganisms in large intestine to produce lactic acid and short-chain fatty acids, which is beneficial to intestinal health.

In addition, it can also improve the flora in the body, detoxify and clear the intestines, improve lipid metabolism, regulate the immune system, enhance immunity, promote mineral absorption and other biological activities.

These two kinds, together, are very beneficial to soaking in water, moistening intestines and expelling toxins, improving constipation and protecting intestinal health.

The third one: lumbar vertebrae

Lumbar injury is very common in middle-aged and elderly people and can not be ignored.

If hyperosteogeny and lumbar osteophyte occur and the adjacent spinal nerve roots are compressed, it will cause a series of symptoms.

Or it is affected by a large external force, which affects the spinal cord and nerve function, and then affects the body's sensory motor ability, even paralysis, life-threatening.

Therefore, after 50 years old, we must protect the lumbar spine.

Countermeasures:

Maintain normal calcium and phosphorus levels in the body and avoid osteoporosis.

Eat more calcium-rich foods such as fish and milk in moderation and exercise more.

Avoid overwork. When lifting heavy objects, you should be prepared to warm up and avoid sudden exertion.

In addition, avoid sedentary, get up and exercise every hour, and don't sit still.

Fourth: heart and lung

The heart governs the blood vessels, which is superior to the lung, which governs the ancestral qi and runs on the heart pulse.

They cooperate with each other and have good cardiopulmonary function, which is the cornerstone of health.

After the age of 50, the cardiopulmonary function will gradually decline, and smoking and drinking will also damage the heart and lungs.

Poor breathing, even chest tightness, shortness of breath, poor complexion, abnormal blood pressure, etc. Should be alert to cardiopulmonary injury.

Countermeasure: Rub your hands in the morning and take a deep breath.

Early morning is the prime time to recuperate the heart and lungs.

Rub your hands or clap your hands first.

Hands and heart, there are Laogong points, rubbing and patting, which are conducive to dredging meridians and helping heart health.

Then, begin to practice abdominal breathing, get rid of the old and absorb the new, and regulate the cardiopulmonary function.

The lower abdomen is slightly outward when inhaling and inward when exhaling.

After getting up in the morning, you can often practice this method to regulate your heart and lung function and enhance your vital capacity.

Fifth: the liver.

Chinese medicine believes that nourishing the liver means nourishing life.

It can be seen that a healthy liver is important to life.

But after the age of 45, it is a high incidence of liver disease.

Fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and even liver cancer have claimed many lives.

Therefore, at the age of 50, we should pay special attention to the maintenance of the liver to avoid liver damage and harm to health.

Countermeasures: give up drinking and sleep.

If you want to maintain your liver, you must first give up drinking.

Alcohol and its metabolites are toxic to the liver.

Therefore, to protect the liver, we must abstain from alcohol and it is best not to touch alcohol. We must remember this.

Secondly, protect the liver and pay attention to ensuring sleep.

Good sleep contributes to the health of the liver, while poor sleep will damage the liver.

After the age of 50, many people's sleep quality will get worse and worse, even insomnia.

At this time, we must pay special attention to getting up early and taking a nap in the afternoon for about 30 minutes.

This can supplement sleep and nurse the liver, which is of great benefit to the body.

Sixth: blood vessels

Blood vessels are all over the human body and are called "candles of life".

But with the increase of age, blood vessels will age, harden and block.

Coupled with some bad habits, it will damage blood vessels and induce various vascular diseases.

After the age of 50, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are at a high incidence, which requires extra vigilance.

Maintaining blood vessels is undoubtedly of great help to health and longevity.

Countermeasures: not sedentary, more activities.

Sedentary and lack of exercise are the main reasons for blood vessel blockage.

Therefore, after 50 years old, don't be lazy and don't sit still for a long time.

For proper activities, it is particularly important to get up and exercise every 45 minutes.

Regular exercise of hands and feet contributes to blood circulation and blood vessel health.

Exercise ankles, do kicking activities, raise and lower toes in turn, and do this action 1 min.

Regular wrist exercise can dredge meridians, help dredge blood vessels and promote blood vessel health.

Turn your wrist slowly from the inside out, and then from the outside in.

Some people say: Before the age of 50, I exchanged my body for money; After 50 years old, it is to exchange money for the body. This is because, after the age of 50, physical function declines rapidly and many diseases begin to "break out". At this time, it has entered the "life-supporting period", and developing some good habits will help to prolong life and enjoy old age.

In fact, it's best to get up early and slow down after 50.

1, get up slowly: the early morning is the high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, when you get up in the morning, you should pay attention to slow down and not get up too hard. Once you get up quickly, it will easily lead to high blood pressure, dizziness and even cerebral infarction. Wake up in the morning, open your eyes, move your hands and feet first, then get up slowly, sit quietly by the bed for a minute, and then get dressed on the ground.

2. Slow morning exercise: After 50 years old, many people have the habit of doing morning exercises. Pay attention to "slow down" at this time. On the one hand, don't practice in a hurry in the morning, practice later, and practice after the sun rises in the morning. On the other hand, you should do some slow motion in the morning exercise, and never do too intense exercise. Once you do morning exercises or do strenuous exercise too early, it is not good for your health. Jogging and Tai Chi are both good choices.

I hope my answer can help you!

After the age of 50, the body will go downhill and all kinds of functions will have problems. However, it suits people. Everyone is different from birth to the day after tomorrow, so the parts that need maintenance are different. But one thing, the key to longevity is to "keep a good mood", and happiness is the most important. After the age of 50, what most people lack is happiness, so we should pay attention to a cheerful mood, pay attention to regulating emotions, and stop being angry, especially not sulking, which is the most harmful to our health. Most diseases are caused by anger.

Keep a happy mood every day, you will eat well and sleep well, and your body will naturally get better.
