"Blessings are like East China Sea , and longevity is better than the southern mountains". This is the most familiar blessing in the banquet for the elderly. It seems that when people get older, they are healthy, and peace and longevity are the greatest blessing.
However, there is also a common saying among Chinese people, which means that the elderly live long and defeat their descendants. Is this sentence passed down through the ages true? Does the elderly’s longevity really have a negative impact on their children? This matter starts with China's persistent pursuit of longevity since ancient times.
's pursuit of longevity has never stopped
If you ask China what eternal things have been since ancient times, it must be people's pursuit of longevity. From men to women, from ordinary people to the supreme emperor, people have tireless pursuit and fantasy for longevity. Especially many people with high powers do not hesitate to spend manpower, material resources and financial resources to pursue the magic pill that makes people live long. As we all know, Xu Fu traveled thousands of miles to Japan because of Qin Shihuang's dream of immortality.
Although they failed and ultimately failed to reality and failed to escape the laws of human life, there are still generations of people who explore and pursue longevity. Some are obsessed with exploring the secret recipes of magic medicines in the alchemy furnace, while others have exhausted their experiences and explored the physiological mysteries of human beings, and their views on longevity are different.
Generations of people have passed experiments and research. Some people believe that immortality cannot be achieved, because everything has its own laws. There is no eternal thing, and life is death. If everyone can live forever, then wouldn’t this world be in chaos? Some people also believe that the reason why people cannot achieve immortality is because the level of science and technology has not reached a certain level. Today's technology and medical level are developing so fast. I believe that the secret of longevity will be solved one day.
No matter how many factions there are about immortality, or how much exploration people have made in immortality, people currently have to respect reality if they want to live long and healthy. There is no magic pill that can make people go once and for all.
, you have to rely on yourself,
There is a place called Bama Village in Guangxi where the elderly live very long, at least over 70 years old. researchers have done relevant research on the elderly in this place and found that the people here live longevity is by no means accidental, but rely on their living environment and diet to develop daily habits.
Bama Village is surrounded by mountains and water, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The air here is fresh, the water resources are abundant, the climate is mild and humid, there is no excessive cold, and there is no unbearable heat.
People find that the people in Bama Village work from sunrise and rest from sunset. Although they are not as stressed as the living conditions in big cities. The food eaten by the people in Bama Village is all local self-sufficient crops, without pesticides, and they are picked and made immediately. And they all had very light food, no big fish or meat.
Through research on this longevity village and combined with medical experience, people have found that the secret to longevity lies in life itself. If you want to live a healthy and long life, you must first have excellent genes and have no genetic history of major diseases. Because modern medical research has found that many cancer patients have a certain family history. Although cancer genes are not the absolute condition for cancer, the two have a certain connection.
Secondly, if you want to be healthy and have no diseases, you must control your mouth. I believe that in recent days, everyone must have been flooded with the Internet buzzword "Hex Technology". The additives written in the ingredient list have finally been valued by people. Although it is incorrect to talk about toxicity aside from the dosage, some additives are legal and compliant, this matter at least reminds everyone that food safety has once again received attention from people.
Nowadays, many people are unwilling to cook by themselves because they don’t have time and laziness, so they go to the restaurant to order takeout. Although this is very convenient, it is not good for the body in terms of health, because we will never know whether the raw materials used by merchants are fresh or healthy.If you want to eat , you have to make it yourself. Controlling your mouth and moving your legs is the unchanging truth to obtain a healthy body.
The impact of longevity on children
After understanding of the traditional culture about longevity and the actual basis for longevity, let’s explore whether the longevity of the elderly and their descendants are real.
First of all, we need to delineate the feudal superstitious color of this sentence, directly analyze the origin, and analyze the impact of the elderly on their children.
First point, if the elderly are very old and have physical illnesses, it will affect their children. In fact, longevity is not scary. What is scary is that you are old and have diseases, you cannot take care of yourself and need the care and company of others. In today's society, the most tormenting elderly diseases are diabetes and the other is cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases , including Alzheimer's disease . Although these two types of diseases are not as fatal as cancer, subsequent rehabilitation requires manpower and material resources. Therefore, if you have children of elderly people with these two types of diseases at home, you have to put in more effort to take care of the elderly.
Second point, older people usually have a generation gap with the younger generation, and if they live together, there will inevitably be conflicts. There are great differences in lifestyles and values of the elderly and young people at present. The elderly have relatively conservative ideas, while young people have received more advanced education and have their own perspectives on their views and understanding of things.
The ideological differences between the elderly and young people are almost impossible to change, but we can realize this problem early and find ways to solve it. The most important question is how two generations can get along well.
Conclusion
If you understand the saying that the elderly live long and defeat their descendants as feudal superstition, it is wrong. Because if the elderly can live a long life, it is a happy event worth celebrating and a blessing for a family. Life is actually very short, I believe everyone can hope that their relatives can stay with them for longer.
