The elderly should do a good job in health preservation in winter, pay attention to physical examination
Second, pay attention to "eat food in moderation, and you will be free of disasters."
Diet is moderate. each meal is 70% full. Don’t eat too much for dinner. The most fear of lying down when you are full.
There are chapters for diet. means that the staple food and complementary food should be matched well, with meat and vegetables, and pay attention to the acid and alkali balance in the selection of ingredients. It is best to be the "omnivorous" diet style.
Diet is rhythmic. : You should chew carefully and swallow slowly, and you should not eat voraciously, that is, "food should be fine and slow, and not coarse and fast."
At the same time, pay attention to "do not move before eating and do not remain calm after eating" to allow the body's metabolism to produce the best effect.
Diet is balanced and regulated, which can play a role in preventing diseases
Third, pay attention to drinking more water and tea.
In autumn and winter, middle-aged and elderly people should pay attention to "hydrating" their bodies so that their organs can operate normally. Don’t drink water if you are not thirsty or not. You are afraid of frequent use of the toilet and don’t drink water. This habit should be changed, otherwise it will be difficult to meet the metabolic needs and the toxins in the body will be difficult to excrete.
Drinking water should develop good habits in daily life. Drinking boiled water and tea is good. It is recommended that the elderly drink some black tea in autumn and winter to warm the stomach and heart to drive away the cold, and promote blood circulation and help digestion and refresh the spirit.
Drinking black tea in winter is good for health
Fourth, friends who drink alcohol must be in moderation.
Many middle-aged and elderly friends like to drink alcohol in autumn and winter to "activate blood circulation and remove stasis". There is a saying among the people that "wine can eliminate all evils."
Compendium of Materia Medica says that soju (white wine) "can eliminate cold accumulation, dry phlegm and dampness, relieve depression, and stop water and drainage." In ancient times, people believed that wine was a good thing to keep cold. It can promote qi with blood, refresh the spirit and keep cold, relieve sorrow and relieve depression.
A scholar said, "One glass of wine is a nutritional product, two glasses of wine are medicine, and three glasses are drugs." This shows the importance of drinking in moderation.
Many middle-aged and elderly people have the habit of "drinking a cup" in winter, but they must not drink greedy.
wine is a "double-edged sword". A small amount is beneficial and more harmful. Not everyone can drink it. Older people must pay attention to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health, especially those with hypertension and . People who cannot drink alcohol must restrain their "desire".
The elderly should drink in moderation, and those with diseases should try not to drink
Fifth, pay attention to proper strengthening of the body.
The climate in autumn and winter is cold and dry. The elderly should pay attention to their physical fitness, period and duration, and do what they can.
These "five don'ts" are in mind:
Don't go out too early in the morning, don't go out on an empty stomach, don't exercise for too long, don't act alone, don't go too far.
The elderly have poor physical fitness and it is difficult to recover from the past once an accident occurs. As I get older, my memory is getting worse and worse. It is also very troublesome to go too far and not come back. No one knows about some emergencies.
The elderly should go out for a walk together with them
Sixth, be careful not to "cross your legs" or sit for a long time.
When it comes to cold weather, middle-aged and elderly people like to sit cross-legged at home for a long time. Some people are still accustomed to "mediating" every day, and this lifestyle needs to be changed.
As you get older, the blood flow rate is slow, especially in winter. This kind of sitting cross-legged, cross-legged, and meditating without moving for a few hours is prone to blood clots, which may still be fatal.
Even if you don’t go out indoors and the temperature in the house is low, don’t sit on the bed and stay inactive for a long time. In the past, there were elderly people in Northeast China who liked to sit cross-legged, but now many people also have this habit.
I have seen an old man who has suffered from sitting inactive for a long time and has caused limb necrosis, and finally has to amputate his limbs to save his life. His quality of life was greatly reduced and he almost lost his life.
"mediation" across the legs should not be too long
Summary:
In short, pay attention to these six points, and the elderly will ensure that they can improve their quality of life in autumn and winter, at least safely spend the cold and dry weather that needs to be prevented, and welcome the next beautiful spring with a new posture and vigorous vitality.
Looking forward to the next beautiful season in life together
The most beautiful life is to accompany each other until the end of the world.
