For the decline of immune function, the elderly with poor cold resistance, winter health care is particularly important. However, many elderly people nowadays have many misconceptions about survival in winter, resulting in unsatisfactory health effects and even harming their health. Let Xiao Bian crack these misunderstandings for you from the three aspects of sports, tonics, and rests to help the elderly better prevent diseases, rejuvenate their lives and keep safe.
[correct exercise]
As the saying goes, life is sport, but it is accurate to say that only proper exercise can prolong life.
For example, many elderly people used to go to morning exercises early in the morning and mistakenly thought that the fresh air in the morning, in fact, this practice is not scientific. When the temperature in winter decreases, the blood vessels of the human body contract, and the blood viscosity increases, which is very disadvantageous for elderly people with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. In addition, the early morning haze is relatively large and the PM2.5 index is high, which can easily cause respiratory diseases such as bronchitis and asthma. Therefore, it is best to choose the exercise time of the elderly after 9 o'clock, or the park at 4-5 o'clock in the afternoon. When exercising, pay attention to the protection of the face and limbs to prevent frostbite.
Outdoor dry weather in winter can also exacerbate the loss of body moisture and minerals. Therefore, it is necessary not only to pay attention to the supplement of white water before and after exercise, but also to supplement minerals and vitamins together. A freshly squeezed pear juice or kiwi juice is a good choice at this time. Pears have the effect of moistening throat, regulating lungs and relieving cough, while kiwifruit is rich in various vitamins such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, and carotene.
[Scientific supplementary]
Winter is the best time for tonic, but if it cannot be supplemented according to individual physical science, the result will be counter-productive.
The imaginary complement, non-deficiency patients should not use tonic, this is the principle of Chinese medicine treatment. Even sea cucumbers, bird's nests, Cordyceps, and other popular supplements or health products cannot be taken blindly. It should be noted that tonics consume physical energy during digestion and decomposition and increase organ burden. Many seniors have limited knowledge and vigilance. If they are not careful, they will be overwhelmed by the "Health Care Seminar" and fall into the trap of unscrupulous merchants. Loss of money does not say that physical health will be threatened.
The so-called "drug supplement" is not as good as Food Supplement, then what principles should be paid attention to in the winter soup supplement? First of all, in the concept of many old friends, the longer the soup, the better. This is not the case. Experts say that eating soup for too long can easily destroy amino acids in foods, increase the content of purines, and cause the loss of many nutrients such as proteins and vitamins. Taking fish soup as an example, the best cooking time is about 1 hour, while chicken soup and rib soup are about 1 to 2 hours.
[reasonable rest]
Old people generally have poor night-time sleep quality, coupled with low winter temperatures, and many people have the habit of playing during the day. Little do they know that excessive sleep is harmful to the body.
According to expert analysis, people have slower heart rate during sleep, blood flow slows down, and prone to thrombosis. Excessive sleepiness also presents with problems such as hardening of the arteries. Studies have shown that older people with more sleep than men with less sleep have twice the heart attack rate and four times as many stroke victims.
Therefore, the elderly should adjust the change of the biological clock so that the state of the sleeping biological clock is synchronized with the natural cycle as much as possible. Try to stay awake during the day as much as possible, and go out for a walk to ensure a good night's sleep. Of course, if you feel drowsiness at 1-2 pm, you can sleep for a while, 15-30 minutes.
Second, the humidity in the room during sleep should also be controlled at an appropriate level. Too dry or too humid will accelerate the proliferation of bacteria in the air. Especially for the dry north, many families suffer from respiratory diseases such as mild asthma due to improper use of humidifiers for a long time.
Some elderly people think that the humidifier should be turned on throughout the day to maintain indoor humidity. However, experts say that once the indoor humidity exceeds 60%, the respiratory system and mucous membranes of the human body will produce discomfort, and bacteria, mold, and actinomycetes in the air will also become active. At the same time, the humidifier is used for a long time, and the fungus or bacteria that the inner wall breeds will also be sprayed together with the water mist, enter the respiratory tract and lungs of the human body, cause allergic reactions, and even induce pneumonia.
