A person grows up in adolescence, enters adolescence, and reaches the heyday of life. Regarding the concept of youth, according to the "ten-year" cycle of Huangdi Neijing, people's health will reach the peak of their lives at the age of 30, and begin to peak at the age of 40 and begin to decline.
Key points of health preservation
When people are young, they are full of qi and blood, and everything can reach the best state. Even if you are tired, you can recover your strength quickly. However, from the perspective of Chinese medicine, people's essence will gradually be consumed at this time, and it is difficult to replenish it as quickly as adolescence. If young people do not pay attention to maintenance, they often overdraw the essence stored in the human body, which is easy to damage their health and accelerate aging. Therefore, young people should pay attention to aftercare, know how to maintain, know how to live a healthy life, save energy for their own health and delay aging.
When it comes to the health of young people, we must first achieve the goal of "strengthening the body, consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan". The so-called fitness is to maintain a healthy body, not too fat or too thin. Solid essence refers to the use of health preservation to ensure the acquired essence and consolidate the essence of people.
Most people are thin when they are young, but in middle age, they are easy to get fat. From the reality, teenagers are rarely obese, but middle-aged and elderly people are obese. Both men and women, around the age of 30, are most likely to get fat and lose shape. If they have bad living habits, such as overeating and drinking beer often, it will be difficult for them to stay healthy.
On the other hand, many women often go on a diet to lose weight in order to keep slim. Therefore, they are weak, unable to provide energy for daily consumption, and prone to some diseases. Whether you are too fat or too thin, it is unhealthy for young people and may damage your body. In order to stay healthy, we should work hard on exercise and healthy diet.
When I was young, I began to work and struggle, and at the same time I should gradually assume the responsibilities of my family. At this time, people will consume a lot of physical strength whether they are engaged in manual labor or mental labor. Nowadays, the pace of life in big cities is fast and the work pressure is great. Young people are often in a state of exhaustion. At this time, they must replenish their physical strength, restore their physical strength and maintain a vigorous mental state according to their personal situation.
Running around is too tired. Eat more nutritious food and keep enough physical strength. Eat regularly, and it is best not to go hungry, which will not only hurt your stomach, but also make you lose nutrition and essence. Young people engaged in mental work should eat more brain-nourishing and educational foods and supplement trace elements such as calcium and magnesium appropriately.
Chinese medicine believes that human qi and blood run through the whole body. If they don't exercise for a long time, their blood circulation will be hindered and some diseases will appear. Therefore, exercise is beneficial to everyone who is healthy, especially those young people who work in offices. They must form the habit of regular exercise. Nowadays, many young people have cervical spondylosis and lumbar spondylosis, all of which are the result of sedentary inactivity. Some people engaged in manual labor may say, I work so hard and have such a heavy workload, do I still need to exercise? It is not the same concept as exercise. Labor often repeats an action, which can play a role similar to exercise. However, labor generally does not move to all parts of the body. So it will be very beneficial to do some exercise properly and exercise the whole body.
Nowadays, many young people like to stay up late and work all night. This habit is very bad and needs to be changed. In Chinese medicine, staying up late is the most serious of all bad habits, which damages yin and yang.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes that kidney is the innate foundation of human beings and the place to store essence. According to the theory of five elements, the heart is fire, the kidney is water, and water can control fire. Under normal circumstances, kidney water can help heart fire, so that heart fire will not be excessive and disturb the mind. However, staying up late often will cause kidney yin loss, lack of kidney water, fire will not come out, and the imbalance between yin and yang will cause problems. Staying up late hurts the kidney and the liver. The liver is responsible for detoxifying and eliminating fatigue. After a day's work, you need a rest to work normally. From 3 am to 4 am, it is time for the liver to work and nurse itself. If you don't sleep, it will increase the burden on your liver. When the liver is damaged, people's digestion and detoxification functions will be affected. Indigestion, nutrition can not keep up, can not clean up the toxins produced in the body in time. It is conceivable how much our health will be affected.
Many young people feel that the more they stay up late, the more energetic they are, which is actually an abnormal performance. If this happens, it shows that this person has serious yin deficiency and does not feel tired, because he has already begun to consume his own Yuanyang. Once he reaches the point of deficiency of both yin and yang, it will be very serious. Deficiency of yin and yang makes people prone to blood gas failure, and deficiency of qi and blood will lead to excessive liver fire, making it difficult for people to sleep and rest. At this time, people's digestion is affected by the liver, so they can't absorb nutrients through food, supplement essence, and fall into a vicious circle. Over time, the internal organs may get out of control. If you get sick, it will be very serious diseases such as cancer and stroke. Therefore, young people should never overdraw their health because of staying up late or irregular work and rest.
We should also remind young people not to covet the convenience of modern life too much and harm their health artificially against the laws of nature. Now air conditioning and heating are basically popular. In summer, people like to stay in air-conditioned rooms without sweating. In winter, they like to stay in a warm room without freezing. These modern measures do make our life comfortable, but if they are not used properly, they will also harm our health.
As the seasons change, the human body will adjust itself according to the climate change. When the weather is hot in summer, the human body often opens pores and sweats a lot to lower the body temperature. At this time, it is most afraid of rheumatism. Many people think there is nothing wrong with riding a motorcycle in winter, but it is easy to hurt their knees in summer. It is because the pores of heaven and man are open in summer, and moisture is easy to invade. Similarly, if fans and air conditioners are blown violently in summer, evil spirits will invade the body, and people are prone to paralysis of hands and feet and facial paralysis.
Some people may think it's okay to stay in an air-conditioned room all the time, but in this case, the sweat in the human body is always suppressed and can't be discharged, which is also harmful to health. Sweating is a way for the human body to regulate detoxification. It is not a bad thing to sweat properly in summer.
In a word, youth is the best period in one's life. If a person can maintain good living habits and maintain the best health at this stage, he can lay a good foundation for starting a business in middle age and creating a brilliant career, and also provide health protection for later old age.
