In addition, the elderly basically don't rest at home, and they keep chickens and ducks when they have nothing to do. They are in good health. Everything you eat is grown and raised by yourself, and the food is pure natural.
First of all, as the saying goes, "Guilin's landscape is the best in the world." Guangxi has beautiful scenery, beautiful scenery, blue sky and white clouds, fresh air, warm climate and sunny days. There is no cold and heat all year round, and there are few floods and droughts. A good natural environment is an important objective factor for the elderly to live longer.
Second, the above-mentioned "hometown of longevity" are all located in remote areas, with simple folk customs and poor life, but with high happiness index, living and working in peace and contentment.
Third, Guangxi is rich in soil and water, good in ecology, and rich in all kinds of fruits and foods conducive to longevity; The vast forest, criss-crossing rivers and high negative oxygen ions in the air are called "vitamins in the air" and "longevity elements"; The spring water in Kezi Mountain is clear, cool, sweet and delicious, and rich in trace elements. Tested by relevant departments, Guangxi's "hometown of longevity" is mostly an area with high selenium, iodine, zinc and manganese content. These trace elements are necessary for human body, which have the functions of anti-oxidation and anti-aging, and reduce the occurrence of many endemic diseases.
Fourth, Guangxi's "hometown of longevity" is mostly in economically underdeveloped areas. People live in poverty and frugality and have a light diet. They eat more fruits and vegetables, whole grains and bean products, like drinking tea and mountain spring water, don't overeat, chew slowly, insist on going to bed early and getting up early, have a reasonable schedule, have enough sleep time, have fewer dreams and have high sleep quality, so they are healthy and have fewer patients.
Fifth, most people in Guangxi, the hometown of longevity, like to do farm work. They are not too tired, but they can also exercise. Step-by-step and uniform exercise is good for health. It is very reasonable to say that working people are beautiful and life lies in sports. The "longevity stars" all practice the principle of longevity that is the most difficult for modern people to implement: working for a lifetime.
Sixth, longevity generally has family genes, which can prevent diseases and health care and help to prolong life. Due to the above reasons, most "longevity towns" in Guangxi have formed a virtuous circle and a good atmosphere for many years. The overall level of DNA methylation is high, and the telomere length of white blood cells is significantly longer than that of ordinary people. The unique phenomenon that father and son, husband and wife, brothers and sisters are centenarians often appears. A family, a family and a village are full of "longevity stars", so it is difficult for you not to live long.
Guangxi is a famous hometown of longevity in China. I think there are several reasons for the longevity of the elderly in Guangxi:
1, our industry in Guangxi is relatively underdeveloped, but it may be precisely because of the underdeveloped industry that we have a better preserved ecological environment.
2. Guangxi belongs to the subtropical region, and the green mountains and green waters are the greatest wealth. People in Guangxi breathe fresh and good air and drink clear and good water every day. The quality of air and water are definitely two important factors for health.
3. Guangxi people (including most southerners) have good living habits. For example, we have the habit of taking a bath every day-don't underestimate this little habit, it is definitely an important factor in strengthening our physique. There are also habits such as light diet and contentment.
4. The soil in many areas of Guangxi is rich in selenium and other healthy minerals. Good air, good soil and good water are our unique advantages in Guangxi, especially the selenium-rich soil, which is definitely a big advantage that other provinces can't compare with us. As the saying goes, what kind of people will there be when one side is nourished by water and soil. With such superior natural conditions of water and soil that are beneficial to health, how can Guangxi people living in this land be unhealthy?
5. Guangxi people are tough, independent and easy-going. They are not as good at and keen on political power struggle as northerners, nor as smart, strong and calculating as Wenzhou people or even Cantonese people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. You see, Guangxi people only choose Guangdong as their work place and seldom go to other areas. Contentment is the healthiest emotional trait of Guangxi people.
In a word, Guangxi is the back garden and drinking tower of Guangdong. One of the most important tasks of the Datengxia project under construction in Guangxi is to provide sufficient clean water for the Pearl River Delta, especially Macao, Jiangmen and Zhaoqing, so as to prevent seawater from flowing backwards in dry season and endanger the drinking water safety in Macao and other places. It can be seen that the green water and green mountains in Guangxi not only nurtured Guangxi, but also made Guangxi healthy and benefited Guangdong and Macao, which contributed greatly!
