Why do modern people love to get sick? The main reasons are as follows:
1. air pollution: air pollution is an inevitable problem. In addition to the well-known PM2.5, there are other pollutants in the air: sulfur oxides, carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, floating dust and suspended particles. These pollutants come from industrial and mining enterprises (especially steel and chemical enterprises), automobile exhaust and smoke from civil heating, and burning wasteland and straw. Controlling air pollution is a top priority, and the seriousness of pollution cannot be underestimated.
2. Water pollution: Water pollution includes drinking water, farmland irrigation water and aquaculture water polluted by industrial wastewater. Water pollution mainly comes from the excessive discharge of wastewater from industrial and mining enterprises (especially pesticide, paper and chemical enterprises), which pollutes the water environment. In addition, some steel and industrial enterprises directly inject industrial wastewater into the ground, which pollutes the groundwater. Domestic garbage can also pollute water sources, while marine pollution comes from nuclear leakage and industrial wastewater discharge.
3. Environmental pollution: geographical environment, natural environment, soil environment, living environment, indoor and outdoor environment, etc. Can affect people's health. Environmental pollution is mainly caused by human beings. In addition to the environmental damage caused by modern industry, domestic garbage and sewage are also the main factors that pollute the environment. Smoking is the chief culprit of indoor environmental pollution, and passive inhalation of second-hand smoke is more harmful to people's health. Environmental pollution is the main factor affecting human health.
4, decoration pollution: indoor and outdoor decoration, often use chemical adhesives, paint, etc. These chemicals not only produce pungent odor during use, but also form residues after decoration, and residual formaldehyde or other pollutants affect the indoor environment. It can be said that the more luxurious the decoration, the more serious the decoration pollution. Therefore, the family should not over-decorate, but don't rush to move in after decoration. They must open the window for a period of time before they can move in, and they can hire professionals to control the decoration pollution.
5. Electromagnetic pollution: Modern people live in an artificial electromagnetic environment. Satellite TV, wireless broadcasting, microwave communication, mobile phone network, wireless Wi-Fi, military radar, etc. Weaving invisible electromagnetic nets, as well as outdoor high-voltage lines and mobile phone base stations, as well as household appliances and office equipment, all release electromagnetism during use. These electromagnetic pollution basically did not exist in ancient times. Even if there was electromagnetic pollution in ancient times, it came from natural magnetic field. Now electromagnetic pollution is man-made. There are two other places with high electromagnetic pollution, amusement parks and amusement halls. Amusement facilities will also release electromagnetism during operation, so try to go as little as possible. Try to stay away from household appliances running at home, especially microwave ovens.
6. Light pollution: In order to show the luxurious and modern atmosphere in the city, colorful lights are decorated on buildings and plants, or gorgeous nightlight is set up, but it causes light pollution invisibly. In the family, the abuse of decorative lights (rotating lanterns, spotlights, etc. ) is also the main source of light pollution. Light pollution damages vision, interferes with the central nervous system of the brain, affects the secretion of melatonin, easily causes insomnia, or makes people dizzy, disturbs the endocrine system of the human body, affects the heart rate and blood pressure, and makes people's physique decline. So try not to go to places with serious light pollution at night and control the use of light sources at home. Don't over-illuminate, don't mess with decorations and background lights, and don't sleep with the lights on.
7. Excessive pesticides in vegetables and fruits: Vegetables and fruits are prone to pests and diseases during their growth, so it is inseparable from the application of pesticides. Some vegetable farmers or fruit farmers often use some ripening agents and daguoling in order to make melons and fruits grow early. These applied pesticides and ripening agents are sometimes overused by people, resulting in excessive pesticides in fruits and vegetables. So when eating fruits and vegetables, try to wash and peel them, don't buy oversized fruits and vegetables, and try to blanch them with hot water before cooking.
8. Excessive harmful components in clothing: In the process of clothing production and processing, some chemical dyes and adhesives are often used to dye or shape clothing. Although these chemical reagents will volatilize, they will still produce residues on clothes, and some residual substances will do harm to people's health if they reach the concentration exceeding the standard. Therefore, soak the newly bought clothes as much as possible before wearing them. In addition, try not to buy clothes that need dry cleaning, because dry cleaning agents are also harmful to health.
9. Abuse of food additives: There are almost no packaged foods bought in supermarkets without additives, and there are more than one additive for each food. Whether it is seasoning, color matching, seasoning, preservation, thickening, anti-corrosion, etc. It is inseparable from food additives. In some black workshops, non-edible chemical raw materials are often used to produce processed food; There are also some aquatic products operators who soak some aquatic products in preservative formalin in order to make huge profits (in order to prevent aquatic products from deteriorating and gaining weight) ... The ancients said that they should keep their mouths shut, eat less snacks, eat roadside stalls, buy or eat food of unknown origin.
10, often eat fast food, love snacks and always drink drinks: fast food, snacks and drinks are all things that people like now, but these things are not good for their health. Regardless of the quality of raw materials, the cooking method of fast food is mainly frying; Snacks contain a lot of additives, and drinks contain high sugar content, which are basically blended with pigments and flavoring agents. For the sake of health, it is better to eat less of these three things.
1 1. Drug abuse: As the saying goes, drug abuse, especially antibiotics, is also the main factor endangering health. Because many drugs have adverse reactions and side effects, medication needs to be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor. Don't buy drugs at will. In addition to drugs, health care products should not be abused, otherwise it will also damage health. Blindly taking health care products will often cause some nutrients to exceed the standard and the internal environment will be disordered. If you are not very old and healthy, don't take health care products casually. Abuse of health care products is also the enemy of health. If you want to keep healthy, you can supplement it with diet therapy and strengthen your physique through physical exercise. Don't blindly rely on health care products and drugs.
12. Work stress and psychological stress: Many people feel great stress in their work and life. If you have pressure, you should relieve it in time, arrange your work and rest reasonably, strengthen your diet and nutrition, participate in recreational activities, or talk to someone and ask for help from a psychological counselor to relieve and alleviate the pressure. If the work pressure is too great, leave your present post, or let yourself rest for a few days in stages, or appropriately reduce some entertainment and leave more time for yourself to rest.
13, unreasonable work and rest: in modern cities, nightlife is becoming more and more abundant, and many people like to go out for entertainment at night. Even at home, I will stay up late because I watch TV or surf the Internet, or stay up too late or often because I have to work overtime. Unreasonable work and rest interfere with endocrine, affect the hematopoietic and detoxification functions of viscera, cause damage to health over time, make people's physique decline, get sick easily, and even induce sudden death.
14, don't like sports: Many people have no time to exercise because of their busy work, or feel that they are too lazy to exercise, or are influenced by the working and living environment to develop a quiet and inactive character and habit. If you don't like sports and don't exercise regularly, it will often make people's physique decline, and over time, it will make their health decline. Proper exercise can enhance the body's disease resistance. But don't exercise too much, it will also damage your health.
15, bad eating habits: everyone has eating habits, like to eat fat, sweet, thick, spicy, cooking high in oil, sugar or salt, like to eat game, or eat seafood and drink beer. All bad eating habits will affect health to some extent. Therefore, the diet should be reasonable and balanced. Don't eat too much greasy, sweet and spicy food, cook with low salt, oil or sugar, eat little or no game, wild vegetables and wild mushrooms, and keep the entrance closed. Eating some coarse grains and vegetarian food properly is also good for your health, but pregnant and lactating female compatriots should try not to be vegetarian. A low-oil, low-salt and low-sugar diet can prevent the increase of blood lipid and blood viscosity, which is helpful to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
16, exposure to toxic and harmful substances: Some people will inevitably come into contact with some toxic and harmful substances at work. Toxic and harmful substances in life mainly come from detergents, air fresheners, aerosol insecticides, mosquito-repellent incense tablets, hair dyes, hair gels and so on. When using oily cleaners, it is best to bring glasses, masks and gloves, and never mix all kinds of cleaners. Try not to use and use air fresheners as little as possible, dye hair as little as possible, and reduce exposure to harmful substances. If you come into contact with toxic and harmful substances at work, you should do your own protection. Female compatriots in physiological period and pregnancy should try their best to get rid of the workplace with toxic chemicals.
17, bad habits: In addition to unreasonable work and rest, bad habits will also affect your health. For example, if you don't eat breakfast, you have a rich dinner, often eat dinner after 20 o'clock, or wear thin clothes in winter, or often pick your nose with your fingers, stay up late or stay up late, sleep at night without drying your hair, smoke and drink, and so on. All the bad habits that are used to it have invisibly buried hidden dangers of diseases. Therefore, the pursuit of health should start with getting rid of bad living habits.
18, excessive dependence on TV, computers and mobile phones, and other electronic products: these are also the main factors affecting the physical and mental health of modern people. Excessive dependence on TV affects vision and sleep; Excessive dependence on computers and mobile phones often leads to psychological variation, split personality and social obstacles, which affects people's normal work and life. So when you are free, try to stay away from computers and mobile phones, communicate with your family and go out to get close to nature. ...
19. Inadvertent making friends: Inadvertent making friends is also the main factor affecting the physical and mental health of modern people. Some people go astray because they make friends carelessly, are infected by diseases, are influenced by negative emotions, or are tempted. Therefore, in the process of making friends, you must lead an honest and clean life, distinguish between good and bad, stay away from friends who have bad hobbies or will bring you bad influences, get rid of unhealthy environment, and then pursue an active and healthy lifestyle and manage your own life well.
