We can test our health by doing the following four actions.
Action 1: Lift heavy objects with both hands.
Pick up an object weighing about three kilograms with both hands, and then feel whether your hands and arms have strength and whether you will feel pain. This action can test whether the muscle penetration strength of our shoulders, back, chest, knees and biceps brachii is still normal. For people who don't like sports at ordinary times, the maximum muscle strength will reach its peak around the age of 25, and then it will gradually decline. After the age of 55, the decline will be faster. If muscle strength is not up to standard, it is easy to suffer from diseases such as osteoporosis and arthritis, and it is also easy to get injured in life.
If you are over 55 years old and can easily lift 3 kilograms of objects without feeling muscle aches, congratulations, your body is still strong.
Action 2: Close your eyes and stand on one leg.
This test method was put forward by Japanese scholars and can be used to test the aging degree of human body.
The method is to stand, let your hands droop naturally, let your palms stick to the hem of your pants, then gently close your eyes, slowly lift one foot and start for a few seconds in your heart. If you can persist for 8 seconds, it means that your body is still healthy, aging is slow, and the chances of longevity are greater.
Action 3: Make a fist for 30 seconds.
Clench your fist for 30 seconds. At this time, clenching your fist will block the blood flow, and then open your palm to see if the blood flow can quickly return to normal.
If the palm returns to normal within 10 second, the blood vessels are healthy, elastic and expandable. If it takes more than 20 seconds for the palm to return to normal, it means that your blood has become sticky, which is a sign that blood vessels are gradually aging.
Action 4: Hold your breath for 30 seconds.
The method is: first adjust your breathing, and then start to hold your breath. If you hold your breath for more than 30 seconds, it means that your cardiopulmonary function is normal. If you can hold your breath for more than 60 seconds, it means that your cardiopulmonary function is still very strong, which indirectly means that your body is healthy. Such a constitution may live longer. If you can't reach this level, you can do deep breathing training every day, do more jogging and exercise your cardiopulmonary function.
1, do a good job of diet conditioning
Diet should be light, eat more fruits and vegetables, mix with appropriate coarse grains, chew slowly, which will help digestion and let the body fully absorb nutrients.
Step 2 walk slowly
Sticking to exercise is good for your health, but you can't do too much exercise after 55 years old. Walking is a good way to exercise. If the elderly are in poor health, you can use crutches to increase the support of your legs when walking slowly.
Step 3 get up slowly
Because most elderly people suffer from chronic diseases such as hypertension, they should not get up immediately after waking up in the morning, but should lie still in bed for three minutes, exercise their limbs, and then get out of bed slowly, so as not to suddenly change their posture, causing blood pressure fluctuation, dizziness and danger.
4, ensure sleep
Good sleep helps to keep hormone balance in the body and improve immunity, so you must get rid of the bad habit of staying up late and fall asleep on time.
