1, add more protein.
First of all, we should add more protein. Among the seven elements that make up the human body, protein accounts for a very high proportion. Our body is so big that protein is contained in muscle tissue and cell tissue, so protein is also necessary to prevent muscle atrophy in the elderly. In our daily diet, we can often eat some foods rich in high protein, such as eggs, soybeans, milk and so on.
2. Keep a good sleep
Good sleep can help us recover from a day's fatigue, stabilize the body's metabolic state and promote organ detoxification. Especially for middle-aged and elderly people, only sleeping can regulate the body well, so it is essential to have a good rest in order to prevent muscle atrophy. I suggest those old people who can't sleep well every day to find ways to improve their sleep quality, such as warming their sleeping environment or drinking a glass of milk half an hour before going to bed at night.
Step 3 drink plenty of water
The proportion of water in human body is very high. As you may know, you need to drink plenty of water if you want to prevent dry skin. Similarly, for the elderly, drinking more water can also play a good role in preventing muscle atrophy and degeneration. So I suggest that the elderly try to keep a certain amount of water every day. Although normal people should drink about 2000 ml of water, it is possible that the body of the elderly does not need to meet this standard, but we should try our best not to let the body lack water.
