What is the appearance mark of health of the elderly?

When people get old, the degradation of organs and systems in the body is an irresistible natural law. However, if proper health care measures are taken, this degradation process can be delayed, so as to achieve the purpose of delaying aging, improving health and enjoying life. From a medical point of view, the physical signs of healthy elderly people are mainly manifested in ten aspects.

1. Pulse is very small. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that most of the elderly are deficient in qi and blood, so the pulse condition is mainly thick. If you can still keep a small pulse at the age of 60, it means that the heart function is good, the degree of arteriosclerosis is light, and the blood circulation system is normal.

2. Clear thinking. When people enter old age, if they still keep their thinking agile, their speech logical, their attention focused and their movements coordinated, it shows that the nervous system is functioning normally.

3. There are two ears. Deafness is one of the important signs of aging. If the hearing of the elderly is normal, it means that the hearing function is good and the body is slightly aging.

4. Two eyes are clear. Eyes are the place where human essence meets. If the old man's eyes are flexible and bright, it is evidence that the essence is strong, especially the heart, liver and kidney function are good. The so-called "Heaven prospers" is the truth.

5. Silence and harmony. If the elderly have a loud voice and breathe calmly, it means that the lung function is good, and they are full of vital energy such as the loyalty, vitality, Qi Ying and Stephy. The so-called "keeping healthy qi inside, evil can't be done" is the truth.

6. Waist and leg spirit. As the saying goes, "old people start with their legs and sick people start with their waists", which makes sense. If the waist and legs are still flexible when you are old, it means that the muscles, meridians and joints are very strong.

7. The back door is tight. In old age, if the diet and stool are regular, it shows that the functions of spleen and stomach and large intestine have not declined.

8. The front door is loose. Prostate hypertrophy in male elderly and reproductive system diseases in female elderly. Often oppress the urethra, causing frequent urination or dysuria. If the urine is unobstructed. It shows that the genitourinary system is basically intact.

9. The teeth are very strong. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the kidney governs the bone, produces marrow, and the tooth is bone. If the old man's teeth are tight, it reflects that the old man's kidney gas is well filled.

10. The shape is not rich. As the saying goes, "a thousand dollars is hard to buy old and thin." It means that the body of the elderly should not be obese. According to the survey, no one in China who is over 100 years old is obese. Relevant data also prove that the incidence of thin people is significantly lower than that of obese people among patients with hypertension, coronary heart disease and diabetes.

Knowing the health signs of the elderly is helpful for us to observe the aging process of the body, so as to take active measures to delay aging and stay young forever.
