What are the daily life methods to prolong life?
1, life extension method
1, wear articles
Clothes should not be too thick, not afraid of high temperature;
Clothes should not be too thin, not afraid of strong winds.
The human body can only maintain its best condition within a proper temperature range, and it may get sick if the temperature in the living or working environment is too high or too low. Therefore, it is very important to adjust the thickness of clothes and quilts according to the temperature change. For example, people use "disorderly dressing in February and August" to describe people's disorderly dressing in early spring and early autumn.
It is freezing in spring and autumn, and it is relatively cool in early spring and early autumn. Improper reduction or increase of clothes can lead to colds.
When the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is large in summer, just like when the seasons have been alternating, we should pay attention to the increase or decrease of clothes.
Especially when the air conditioner is turned on, you can stop wearing shorts and put on a thin shirt or a silk scarf.
2. Washing products
Don't wash your hair when you are full, and don't take a shower when you are hungry;
Washing feet before going to bed is better than taking tonic.
Just after eating, a lot of blood flows into the stomach, so it is natural to bow your head when washing your hair, which may cause cerebral ischemia. If it is middle-aged and elderly people or people with high blood pressure and hyperlipidemia, it is easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as stroke.
Although bathing is comfortable, it is still a physical activity. When you are hungry, you are prone to hypoglycemia and even faint. On the contrary, it is not advisable to take a bath when you are just full, otherwise the blood that should be concentrated in the stomach will turn to the skin and muscles, which will affect digestion and absorption. It is recommended to rest for an hour or two before taking a bath after meals.
There are two sentences behind this sentence: sweating like a pig, not pouring cold water.
It is said that you can't take a bath immediately after sweating, and of course you can't enter the air-conditioned room immediately, because the pores will suddenly close from the expanded state under the stimulation of cold, which will destroy the perspiration function of the skin and lead to symptoms such as heatstroke and cold.
In the traditional theory of Chinese medicine, the foot is a healthy "window", and the five internal organs have corresponding acupoints. Washing feet at night and massaging Yongquan point at the foot heart properly until the whole body feels warm and comfortable can nourish the heart, improve eyesight, relieve fatigue and promote sleep.
If possible, you can also soak your feet with mugwort leaves, which can dispel cold and remove dampness and dredge meridians.
3. Sleep articles
Do not sleep in summer, do not sleep in autumn;
Spring does not expose the navel, winter does not cover the head.
Get up slowly, don't worry;
Open the window before going to bed and sleep till dawn.
In summer and early autumn, many people like to sleep on the floor, but the ground dissipates heat quickly and absorbs heat quickly, and it is easy to absorb heat from the back, which is easy to induce low back pain and rheumatoid arthritis. In autumn, the climate is dry and the weather turns cold. Sleeping on a hard bed can easily lead to local qi and blood stagnation and limb paralysis.
Even if the weather gets warmer in spring, you must cover the quilt tightly when sleeping, especially don't show your navel. It is cold in winter, and many people like to sleep with their heads covered, but the air circulation in the quilt is poor, and the carbon dioxide exhaled by the human body is easy to accumulate, leading to hypoxia.
If you open the window and ventilate for about 15 minutes before going to bed, increasing oxygen content will greatly reduce indoor bacteria and help improve sleep quality.
When people sleep, various physiological functions keep running at a low speed, the metabolic level drops, the heartbeat slows down, and blood pressure drops. When you wake up, people gradually change from a deep sleep state to an active state. If you get out of bed or get up immediately, it is easy to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
4. Walking articles
Sit as steady as a clock and stand as straight as a pine tree;
Sleep like an arch and move like the wind.
This is especially important for the elderly. Because the functions of various organs in their bodies will be degraded, the functions will be reduced, and the bones, muscles and ligaments will become slack. If they don't stand up and walk, their chests will be squeezed and their vital capacity will be reduced. It is not only easy to form humpback and humpback, but also often flustered and short of breath because of insufficient inhaled gas.
Long-term hypoxia often leads to heart disease and lung disease. Therefore, when the elderly sit standing, they must stand up.
There are two other words worth mentioning about action: keep walking with your feet and keep following your steps.
This sentence says that walking should be brisk and powerful, so as not to form the habit of walking slowly, otherwise the leg muscles will not be well exercised, and after the muscles atrophy and age, the legs will not be lifted.
2. Longevity food
1, tomato sauce. Tomato is a kind of food that often appears on everyone's table, but when it comes to ketchup, people will think it is not fresh and nutritious. In fact, the nutrition of ketchup is not worse than that of tomatoes. According to the food composition table of China, most nutrients in tomato sauce except vitamin C are much higher than those in tomatoes. For example, the content of vitamin E in tomato sauce is nearly 8 times that of tomatoes. It is particularly worth mentioning that the content of lycopene has also increased a lot after making the sauce. Tomato sauce is widely used in cooking, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, soup blocks, stewed beef brisket with tomatoes and Luo Songtang. The best way is to put oil normally, and then add ketchup when the food is almost ready.
2, bean dregs. Speaking of bean dregs, many people think that it is the leftover of bean products, which has less nutrition and poor taste. But in fact, bean dregs are excellent health food. Because it has less calories, contains more dietary fiber and is rich in calcium that the human body needs very much. The data show that 100 g of bean dregs contains about 100 mg of calcium, which is almost equal to milk. In fact, bean dregs are also a good cooking material, which can be added to staple foods, such as porridge and steamed bread, and can also be used to scramble eggs and make meatballs.
3. Egg yolk. Many people throw away the yolk when eating eggs, thinking that it contains a lot of cholesterol and will hurt the heart. The fact is that normal people eat 1 egg yolk every day, which will not cause harm to the heart. Moreover, almost all the health-care ingredients in eggs exist in the yolk, such as vitamins and trace elements, choline, betaine, lutein, omega-3 fatty acids and other health-promoting ingredients. If you find the yolk choking, you can make it into custard, egg drop soup or directly scrambled eggs.
4. Cherry tomatoes. In many people's minds, cherry tomatoes are synonymous with genetically modified food. The truth is that the cherry tomato is not a genetically modified tomato, but it is the most primitive tomato variety, and it can even be said that it has not been fully domesticated. And in terms of nutrition, large tomatoes are slightly inferior to cherry tomatoes. For example, vitamin C in them is much lower. Cherry tomatoes are often eaten as fruits, in addition, they can also be used to make big dishes.
5. dried fruit. Speaking of dried fruit, some people think it has no nutrition, others think it contains too many additives and is unhealthy. In fact, the real dried fruit is the product made of fruit after drying. The production process does not add sugar or salt, and does not involve essence and pigment. In this drying process, sugar, protein, fat and various minerals in fruits will be concentrated, as well as dietary fiber and some antioxidant components and vitamins that are not afraid of heat. Therefore, natural fruits such as raisins, dried mangoes and dried apricots can help the human body to supplement minerals such as potassium and calcium and dietary fiber, which is especially suitable for eating when sweating for a long time in summer. It should be noted that when buying, you should carefully read the label on the package and choose natural dried fruits that are not fried or added with extra salt or sugar.
