What is the relationship between the rhythm of life and longevity?

The great physiologist Pavlov pointed out: "Nothing is more powerful than rhythm in human activities." The rhythm of life is closely related to longevity. It can be said that whoever has a good rhythm will get the key to health and longevity.

Why does the pace of life have such a great influence on life expectancy? Roland Prin, a zoologist in Frankfurt, Germany, has studied and revealed its mechanism. She believes that any living thing depends on energy consumption. For those creatures that can save energy, their "biological clocks" move slowly, thus prolonging their life; Those creatures that have no rhythm and "waste" energy have shorter lives. This law also applies to human beings. The life expectancy of women is generally higher than that of men 10%, especially among monks and hermits, because they live a quiet and rhythmic life, save energy consumption and better control the rhythm of the "biological clock", thus prolonging their life.

A life without rhythm can cause high tension. And high pressure will inevitably lead to a sharp acceleration of metabolism, increased energy consumption, and then lead to an increase in body temperature, which is very unfavorable for prolonging life.

So, how to master the rhythm of life to prolong life? The expert's advice is: (1) control the psychological rhythm.

Due to changes in age, social role and family status. People are prone to some psychological and emotional fluctuations. When encountering contradictions and problems. We should control our own psychology and emotions, be good at relaxing the tense heartstrings, lower the passionate tone, and be calm, calm, unpretentious and supercilious. (2) Adjust the movement rhythm

Whether exercising or taking part in labor, we should properly control the amount of exercise and follow the principle of "step by step". In life, we should always pay attention to the combination of activity and relaxation. After exercise or work, you should arrange some activities such as reading, reading newspapers, entertainment, watching cultural performances or movies to relax your body and mind. (C) a strict pace of life

We should have a regular daily life and form the good habit of getting up regularly and going to bed regularly. Even on holidays, you shouldn't stay up late or sleep late. Pay attention to food hygiene, eat regularly and quantitatively, and don't overeat under any circumstances. Have good living habits, don't smoke and drink less. We should insist on regular and moderate physical exercise. (4) Follow the law of age

When you reach retirement age, you should retire; Give priority to rest after retirement. Do not retreat, or arrange a lot of housework, busy from morning till night, as nervous as middle-aged people; Or, in the name of "exerting the waste heat", re-enter the society to undertake heavy work tasks, and be busier and more tired after retirement than when going to work. You know, time and tide wait for no man. When you get older, your physical strength will inevitably decline, and your physical fitness will inevitably decline. If you undertake heavy housework and work tasks, overload operation will inevitably break the law of human body changes and cause damage to human health and longevity.
