First, the misunderstanding of women's health
1, working all day without rest
Being engaged in a job for a long time will make people feel bored, and boredom just makes the body feel tired. Try to have some fun for yourself every day, such as reading jokes, reading leisure magazines and calling good friends.
Allow yourself to daydream occasionally and other things that can relax yourself.
2. Ma Daha in the gym
It is best to prepare special fitness soft-soled shoes or thick cotton socks, because wet gym carpets can easily hide and breed bacteria, such as athlete's foot and plantar warts. Similarly, there are slippers in the locker room and swimming pool. Although they are all disinfected, it is safest to wear them yourself.
3. Contraceptive methods that have remained unchanged for many years.
Contraceptive methods should change with the change of physical condition. Even if you are used to the current contraceptive methods, you should ask the doctor whether it is still suitable for your current situation during the physical examination. Birth control pills, which were commonly used five years ago, may not be suitable for your body now.
4. Overloaded tampons
I may forget the existence of tampons in my body for a few days when I am busy. Long-term failure to replace tampons can easily lead to gynecological diseases such as inflammation of female private parts. The longest loading time of tampons is 8 hours, so be sure to replace them before going to bed.
The so-called combination of work and rest, if you work all day without rest time, will make people feel very tired, on the contrary, it will affect work efficiency. In addition to the bad habit of working all day without rest, there are 15 bad habits in life that are not conducive to health. Come and see if you have these flower habits!
5. Will dental floss widen your teeth?
This kind of worry is unnecessary. In fact, because dental floss is soft, it won't hurt teeth more than toothpicks. Generally, flossing once a day is enough, but if your teeth are sparse, you must bring flossing with you. Floss your teeth after each meal, and try to make the flossing reach the depth of the teeth and the bottom of the gingival sulcus to clean the gingival sulcus area, but be careful not to use too much force to avoid damaging the periodontal tissue.
6. The exercise pattern remains unchanged.
If you don't change your exercise style for many years, it's easy to cause muscle strain that you exercise regularly, but the muscles that don't exercise have been ignored.
In the long run, it is likely to make the body develop disproportionately. Moreover, from the psychological point of view, changing the way of exercise often not only makes the exercise effect better, but also fresher and easier to adhere to.
7. Beautiful mistakes in high heels
High heels have been favored by women since they came out. High heels with heels above 7cm will naturally move the center of gravity forward and put pressure on the knee joint. Studies have found that excessive knee pressure is one of the direct causes of arthritis. In addition, if the body weight is too much concentrated on the palm of the front foot, the phalanges will become thicker because of the heavy burden. It is scientifically proved that high heels are also the chief culprit of deformation of Achilles tendon and spine. According to statistics, 62% of British women who like to wear high heels suffer from the above diseases to varying degrees.
8. Breathing too shallow
People usually breathe too shallow. In this way, the oxygen content in blood vessels is lower than that of carbon dioxide, so people will feel tired. If there is insufficient oxygen in the blood, the heart rate will increase and blood pressure will rise. This is very bad for people's health. Take a few deep breaths every day.
9. Brush your teeth with cold water for a long time
According to the data, the temperature of human teeth is most suitable for 35 ~ 36.5 degrees Celsius. If it is often stimulated with cold water, gum bleeding, pulp spasm or other dental diseases will occur. The average life span of teeth is shorter than that of people 10 years, and the fundamental reason lies in the habit of "brushing your teeth with cold water".
10, ignoring routine gynecological examination.
The latest medical report found that the mortality rate of early detection of cervical cancer has dropped by 70% in recent five years. The early symptoms of gynecological cancer are easily overlooked, so it is very important to check gynecological secretions regularly. Doctors suggest that all women over 18 years old, especially those who have had sexual experience, have a routine gynecological examination at least once a year, including secretion examination and pelvic examination.
1 1. I forgot to change my toothbrush.
Toothbrush bristles that have been in service for too long are deformed, which can not only effectively clean teeth, but also often poke gums. The longest service life of a toothbrush is half a year, and dentists suggest changing the toothbrush every three months.
12, negligence health insurance
Women aged 20-35 are generally healthy and tend to neglect health insurance. And once there is an emergency here, it is difficult to deal with it. Therefore, it is particularly important to plan ahead. It is suggested to choose pure protection life insurance with low premium, such as hospitalization insurance and cancer prevention insurance. The insured amount accounts for 7 ~ 10 times of the annual income, and the total premium expenditure accounts for about110 of the income.
13, misunderstanding of "high protein diet"
A popular concept of losing weight is that protein will stay in the body for a long time after mixing with carbohydrates. If you only take one pill, it will reduce the time to stay in the body and be absorbed, thus achieving the effect of losing weight. Everyone knows that carbohydrates are the main energy source of the body. If they are lacking, it will lead to fatigue and dehydration. Vegetables and fruits rich in vitamins and fiber are also indispensable. No matter how you lose weight, you must ensure that the daily intake of grains, vegetables and fruits accounts for more than 55% of the total intake.
Wash your hands only before eating.
Many experts believe that the most effective way to reduce diseases is to wash your hands frequently. It is obviously not enough to wash your hands just before meals. Wash your hands in time after going to the toilet, sneezing, coughing, wiping your nose and stroking small animals.
15, weight gain
If you suddenly gain 5 pounds, then you must feel tired more easily than before.
Every movement you make should be carried out with these extra fats. Being overweight will also increase the burden and pressure on the heart. Besides regular exercise, we should also pay attention to a healthy diet and eat less junk food. Because for every pound of fat you lose, you will reduce the extra burden of one pound for your body.
Second, women's ways to keep healthy
1, exercise for 30 minutes every day.
Researcher MollyBrewer said that the first thing for women to keep healthy and prevent diseases is to exercise for 30 minutes every day, which can not only improve their cardiovascular health, but also help to maintain a healthy weight and body mass index, while reducing the risk of endometrial cancer, breast cancer and colon cancer in women, which are directly related to obesity; With the gradual increase of obesity rate in the United States, the cancer rate of the population has also increased, especially the uterine cancer of women. In addition, exercise can also reduce the excessive hormone levels in the body, thus reducing cancer.
2. Make time for your health.
Women usually lead a busy life. In addition to daily exercise, individuals should also ensure a healthy lifestyle, including annual physical examination. Danielle. Gynecologist Luciano said that it is very important to have a simple conversation with doctors to maintain the overall health of the body, whether in cancer prevention, prenatal and postnatal care or effective management of menopause.
Step 3 listen to your body
Many things will happen in a woman's life. The most common ones are endometriosis, ovarian cyst, hysteromyoma, breast cancer or gynecological cancer (ovarian cancer, etc. It is very important to see a doctor regularly for preventive disease screening to maintain women's health. Some warning signs, such as menstrual cycle changes, abnormal bleeding, flatulence, fatigue and changes in health status, may attract your attention and remind doctors to help identify the culprit. At the same time, treating some diseases through non-invasive means may also help to potentially save women's lives.
4. Eat healthily every day.
Just like preventing heart disease, it is very important to take a certain dose of nutrients, fruits and vegetables of various colors every day to prevent and reduce the risk of breast cancer and other cancers caused by obesity in women. Researcher AlexMerkulov said that women should try to reduce the intake of processed food, and natural and complete new things may be the best choice. In addition, avoid eating fried foods containing trans fats, and it is best to eat foods with low fat, sugar and salt content.
Step 5 quit smoking
At present, more than 13% of women in the United States still smoke, although studies have shown that smoking can lead to premature death, heart disease and lung cancer. In fact, lung cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women; If women are currently smoking, they need to quit smoking in order to reduce the probability of various health risks in the future. If they can quit smoking, female cancer induced by smoking may be preventable, so finding a smoking cessation plan may help women quit smoking effectively.
Step 6 check your breasts regularly
1/8 women will get breast cancer at some point in their lives, but the good news is that if breast cancer can be found early, it can be effectively treated. Women should have a baseline mammogram from the age of 40, so that women's breast health and any abnormal changes can be found early; Researcher Merkulov said that more than 90% of abnormal mammograms were eventually found to be benign, so he stressed that early mammograms may be the only way to help reduce female breast cancer deaths. In the annual mammogram, women should also do breast self-examination once a month.
7. Cervical smear examination
Experts say that once a woman is sexually active, she should consult a doctor for regular pelvic examination and cervical smear examination, so that female private parts and cervical cancer, as well as some sexually transmitted diseases caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) or genital warts can be found as soon as possible; Researcher ShannonDeGroff said that some human papillomaviruses put women at higher risk of cervical cancer. Human papillomavirus infection is very common in sexually active men and women, but this virus generally does not induce disease symptoms, which is why early screening is so important, especially for high-risk cancer-promoting viruses.
8. Prevention of human papillomavirus infection
The high prevalence of human papillomavirus often increases the risk of cervical cancer in women, and also increases the risk of head and neck cancer induced by oral transmission of human papillomavirus. In 2006, researchers developed an effective vaccine to prevent human papillomavirus infection. However, some research data show that only 25% of eligible young women aged 65,438+0,654,38+0-26 have been vaccinated with HPV. HPV vaccine can effectively prevent the spread of human papillomavirus in men and women. Researcher Brewer said that more than a decade ago, Australia required school-age children to inject HPV vaccine, which can effectively prevent the spread of human papillomavirus and reduce the incidence of cervical cancer in the country.
9. Take necessary care of pregnancy.
The premise of prenatal and postnatal care is to have a healthy woman (mother). Researcher ChristopherMorosky said that paying attention to women's physical and mental health before pregnancy is very important for a healthy pregnancy in the later period. Early care includes folic acid intake, reaching a healthy pre-pregnancy weight, healthy diet and daily exercise. These measures are very important for a healthy pregnancy, while avoiding drinking, smoking and some unhealthy behaviors.
10, colonoscopy.
Colon cancer is the third leading cause of cancer death in women. Researcher Brewer said that women need to ensure routine colonoscopy at the age of 50. Using colonoscopy to find any abnormal colon polyp growth is very important for effectively preventing colon cancer and developing new colon cancer prevention strategies. Of course, following a healthy lifestyle and diet strategy may also help women effectively prevent colon cancer.
Through the above introduction, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the content of bad habits affecting health in life. If you want to be healthier, you must pay attention to avoiding the above bad habits in your daily life.
