Long-lived elderly people have given up these things!

The health preservation methods of the elderly are of concern to many children. Some people think that the health preservation of the elderly is just about doing exercises and paying attention to diet. In fact, there are four major rules for the health preservation of the elderly. Remembering these four points can make the elderly healthy and live longer.

Avoid anger

Middle-aged and elderly people have many household chores and heavy work tasks, and their emotions are easily fluctuating. When people are angry, their emotions change drastically and their sympathetic nerves become extremely excited. Adrenaline secretion increases and the heart rate speeds up. When blood pressure rises, the blood circulation in the body urgently needs to be readjusted, and the normal physiological functions of the organs are disturbed, which can easily induce gastric ulcers, hypertension, coronary heart disease, etc. Therefore, when people reach middle age or old age, they must learn to control their emotions.

Stop being lazy

When people reach middle age or old age, they unconsciously feel their legs become heavy and easily fatigued, and therefore they don't like to exercise. This shows that aging has quietly arrived. Therefore, middle-aged and elderly people should avoid laziness, take walks and exercise more frequently.

Avoid overwork

Middle-aged and elderly people shoulder the double burden of work and housework. If they are overworked, the body's tissues and organs will not get proper rest. Over time, they will develop illnesses due to overwork, causing poor sleep, loss of appetite, and weight loss.

Abstain from indulgence

When people reach middle age or old age, some people think that the situation is hopeless and rush to “catch up”. Medical scientist Sun Simiao once said: If you indulge in lust, your life will be as fleeting as morning dew. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that excessive sexual activity can damage the kidneys. If the kidney qi is weak, the symptoms may be dizziness, soreness of waist and knees at the mildest, or various diseases and life-threatening at the worst. When people reach middle age, it is understandable that couples love each other, but they should know when to stop and not indulge in lust.
