Old people should quit the four bad habits of getting up in the morning and be healthy.
1, no ventilation in the morning
Indoor air pollution cannot be ignored. According to the survey, the most serious environmental pollution is people's bedrooms, especially in the morning. The air in the bedroom is the most turbid in the morning. Even if the window is half open, 23% of the air can't circulate. There will be a lot of bacteria, viruses, carbon dioxide and dust particles in the polluted air, which will have an impact on the disease resistance of the respiratory tract. Therefore, people who sleep with windows closed often suffer from diseases such as colds, coughs and pharyngitis.
Step 2 get up early and smoke
Some male elderly people have smoked for most of their lives, so it is actually very difficult to quit smoking suddenly. They usually light a cigarette immediately after getting up in the morning, and have already smoked two before breakfast. In fact, it is very harmful to their health. Long-term fasting smoking can induce bronchitis, and second-hand smoke can also implicate family members.
Get up early, eager to do morning exercises
Old people should not get up early to do morning exercises, because with the aging of physical function, some old people still relax their muscles, limbs and other motor organs in a short time after getting up in the morning. Heart rate and breathing are slow, and the body's metabolism level is low. It is difficult to quickly improve the sensitivity of limb response and the flexibility of movement to a higher level. At this time, sports are easy to fall, scratch and sprain. In addition, the sugar content in the liver is the lowest in the morning. Exercise in this period will lead to arrhythmia and even cardiogenic shock, which will be life-threatening.
In addition, the risk of heart attack at 9 am is three times that of afternoon 1. Morning exercise is very unfavorable to patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension, and these patients are mostly concentrated in the elderly.
4. Eat too casually for breakfast
It is said that breakfast should be eaten like a king and dinner like a beggar, but nowadays people confuse these two things, especially some elderly friends, who are indifferent to the choice of breakfast, do not pay attention to it, or deal with last night's leftovers, or eat pickles and rice porridge for a long time, which will not only lead to hypoglycemia, but also accelerate aging and increase the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Breakfast accounts for 30% of the total energy supply in a day, so
So what actions can we do in the morning be beneficial to our physical and mental health? Small details in the morning, wake up your "small universe"
1, get up and drink some water in the morning
Each of us should drink a glass of water in the morning, which will recharge your dry body. But be sure to drink it on an empty stomach, that is, before breakfast, otherwise it will not achieve the effect of promoting blood circulation and relaxing bowels.
2. Have some fruit for breakfast
You should eat fruit at breakfast. Fruit is rich in vitamins and is very important to human body. Eating fruit for breakfast can also make the whole morning energetic.
People have heard that "the fruit in the morning is gold, the fruit from noon to 3 pm is silver, the fruit from 3 pm to 6 pm is copper, and the fruit after 6 pm is lead". After a night's sleep, the body is in urgent need of energy supplement, but the gastrointestinal function has not recovered, and the body energy cannot be replenished in time. Eating fruit at this time can provide people with the nutrition they need for work and study. Moreover, the blood sugar level of people who get up in the morning is mostly low, and the natural glucose rich in fruits can be quickly absorbed by the human body, which can quickly improve the blood sugar level and meet the needs of the human body and the brain in time.
