For middle-aged and elderly friends, the best way to keep fit may not be to eat various health products indiscriminately, but to try to correct their own shortcomings and develop some good living habits and eating habits, which is the most critical step in the fitness process.
I hope you can listen to some health advice given by nutrition experts to middle-aged and elderly people.
Water is the source of life. Take the initiative to drink water and feel relaxed.
Middle-aged and elderly people often encounter constipation. The aging of the intestine makes constipation an old friend who sees you every day. Some friends may help defecate by eating bananas and drinking honey water, but there is a simpler and more effective way to moisten intestines, and that is drinking water. Water is not only an important substance to participate in human metabolism and blood circulation, but also a "master" to lubricate intestines and prevent constipation.
Many people don't have the habit of taking the initiative to drink water, but for middle-aged and elderly people whose body organ functions are beginning to decline, it is the most basic requirement to drink eight glasses of water every day to keep the whole body organs running at a high speed. Drinking water regularly can also dilute blood, so as to stabilize blood pressure and regulate blood sugar.
Maintain the skin and drive away aging.
Although people pay less attention to their appearance as they get older, the phrase "looking young" still carries a lot of weight in the hearts of some beauty lovers. With the arrival of aging, skin drooping, pigmentation increasing, wrinkles deepening, body deformity and so on will appear one by one, but good maintenance can delay the aging time.
No one is unwilling to delay the arrival of aging, but in order to realize this wish, we need to make more efforts in maintaining the skin. Pay attention to sun protection when going out, eat more fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins in your diet, develop good exercise habits, maintain emotional stability, and help tighten your skin and fade spots.
Less fat, less alcohol and tobacco, and a grateful body.
Many friends especially like to eat greasy food, especially braised pork, pigskin and roast duck. In fact, this kind of food has almost no other benefits except satisfying our appetite, and long-term intake of too much high-fat food will only bring greater pressure to blood vessels, and blood lipids will continue to rise, eventually forming blood clots and causing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Many middle-aged and elderly men have the habit of smoking and drinking. They may not agree, thinking that smoking and drinking are just to increase the fun of life, but in fact, long-term smoking will "torture" the lungs. The reason why we can breathe freely depends on the intact lungs, but harmful substances in tobacco can invade the lungs at will and accelerate lung lesions. I hope you can get rid of the habit of smoking as soon as possible.
Not to mention drinking, how many people will get drunk if they drink too much? How many people missed the big event because of drinking? How many people died because of drunk driving? I hope everyone can really understand the meaning of the sentence "alcohol harms people". Even if there is a wine bureau that can't be pushed away, don't compete with others for face. Drinking alcohol for a long time will make blood vessels more and more fragile and shorten their life. If you don't want to be associated with drugs at a young age, please give up drinking as soon as possible.
It is difficult to sum up the harm of overeating, smoking and drinking for a long time in one sentence, but for the sake of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health, I hope everyone can be self-disciplined and stay away from high-fat food, alcohol and cigarettes.
Conclusion: In addition to eating habits and living habits, middle-aged and elderly people can keep a correct attitude and learn to face the pressure and frustration in life positively, so as to avoid some unfavorable factors and keep healthy in the process of aging.
