I don't know if you have found out that the elderly at home especially like watching health programs, and whether the health classics seen on health programs are suitable for their personal physique. There are many old people around. At a certain age, teeth begin to loosen and fall off, but they don't think so. They think they should lose their teeth when they grow up. However, tooth loss is not only an aesthetic problem, but also reduces the chewing function, increases the burden of gastrointestinal digestion, and leads to insufficient nutrient intake. Tooth loss can also indirectly lead to diseases of the heart, brain, kidneys and other organs.

I often hear people around me say that celery and fungus can lower blood pressure. Many hypertensive patients even fry celery and fungus every day. Some hypertensive patients don't take medicine well, and they are addicted to diet therapy, which has a great impact on their health. There are many such rumors, especially for the elderly, but remember that food can't replace medicine.

Some old people think that the earlier the morning exercise, the better, so they like to go out to exercise before dawn. Actually, this is unscientific. Before the sun came out, the content of carbon dioxide in the air was very high, and pollutants accumulated more in the air. Breathing these dirty air will have harmful effects on human body. Therefore, morning exercises should be arranged after the sun comes out, not on the roads with heavy traffic, because these places have accumulated a lot of carbon dioxide, which is not conducive to health.

Many elderly people like to do morning exercises on an empty stomach and drink tea together after exercise, which is easy to cause hypoglycemia, dizziness and other symptoms, and is easy to dehydrate when lacking water. In addition, 6-8 am is the peak of blood pressure, and improper exercise may also lead to an increase in blood pressure. In order to avoid accidents, you'd better eat something before exercise and bring enough water to drink. If you feel chest tightness and discomfort, stop exercising immediately or go to a nearby hospital.
