When people sleep, most organs get a full rest, while the digestive organs are still digesting and absorbing the food left in the gastrointestinal tract the day before, and gradually enter a state of rest in the morning.

The ratio of calcium and phosphorus in aquatic products is 1: 1? 1∶2 is the most suitable for calcium absorption, and it is best to eat more products. Don't forget to be jealous when supplementing calcium. Vinegar can react with calcium in food to produce calcium acetate, which is soluble in water and easily absorbed by human body.
2. Regular sunbathing is also a good way to supplement calcium. The sunshine is warm and soft in winter, which is suitable for outdoor sunbathing. Especially from 9: 00 a.m. to 4: 00 p.m. every day, the sunshine is mainly warm and soft infrared rays, which is the prime time to bask in the sun in a day.

Sleep and health of the elderly, when people get old, because the function of cerebral cortex is not as active as that of young people, metabolism slows down, physical activity is greatly reduced, and the required sleep time is also reduced. Generally, sleeping for about 5 hours every night is enough. Old people tend to wake up in the middle of the night and have short sleep time, which can be supplemented by resting or dozing off during the day. Sleep and health of the elderly
1、? Have a full breakfast, a good lunch and a small dinner? . Eating too much at dinner will affect sleep. Try to drink less water before going to bed, otherwise defecation will affect sleep. Tea and coffee are stimulants and diuretics and should not be drunk before going to bed. Soaking feet with hot water is good for sleep. 2、? Sleep patterns? Very important. Scientists believe that there is a kind of clock in living things, called biological clock, which is an evolutionary adaptation of living things and a biological rhythm phenomenon. If you don't work and rest on time for a long time, it will interfere with the sleep biological clock, often causing insomnia and easily leading to neurasthenia.
3. Sleeping posture? Stand like a pine, sit like a bell, lie like a bow? . In other words, sleeping on the side with a slight bend is better than lying on your back and lying on your stomach. When lying on your back, putting your hands on your chest is easy to cause nightmares, and falling at the root of your tongue is easy to cause snoring and cough; Sleeping on your stomach will affect your heart and lung function.
4. The height of the pillow should not exceed the distance from the shoulder to the neck on the same side. Without pillows, more blood will flow into the head, and the next morning, the head will swell, the neck will be sore, and the eyes will swell. Most elderly people suffer from cervical spondylosis, such as poor neck posture, which will aggravate cervical spondylosis and cause headache and upper limb pain.
5. What about insomnia? First, don't be overtaxed, don't be anxious, and have the confidence to cure; Second, find out the cause of insomnia and eliminate it; Third, take medicine under the guidance of a doctor. The dosage should be small but not large, and the course of treatment should be short and not long. Sleeping pills should not be fixed and should be used alternately or intermittently to avoid drug resistance or poisoning. Take the medicine with warm water half an hour before going to bed and go to bed immediately after taking the medicine. Don't drink tea or coffee after meals, don't smoke, and don't take it with alcohol or stimulants. Withdrawal drugs should be gradually reduced.

? Seven? It's moderate exercise. Exercise until your age plus your heartbeat equals 170. Three? Thirty seconds? Three? Thirty minutes? Get up at night and insist on repeated orders? Thirty seconds? 1. Open your eyes and stay awake for 30 seconds; 2. Sit up for 30 seconds; Stand by and stay in bed for 30 seconds, and then leave.
Psychological balance. The following focuses on the maintenance of psychological balance: (1) Psychological balance is the most important and important guarantee for us to maintain a good health. As the saying goes? Happiness is like sticking medicine, but sadness is disease? . To maintain psychological balance is to master the golden key to open the door to health. Whether a person can live a long and healthy life depends largely on whether his psychology can be truly balanced. According to the survey of the health status of the elderly over 100 years old in China, their living habits are varied, but the same side is: open-minded, optimistic, easy-going, kind-hearted, diligent, passionate about sports and emotionally stable. A person with poor psychological quality is not only unsatisfactory in dealing with people, but also hard to imagine that he can live a long and healthy life (Zhuge Liang is angry with Zhou Yu and Qi Shan is angry with Wang Situ). In real life, quarreling makes people angry (my pre-hospital Chinese medicine patients), some people are crazy about things, and there are countless cases of suicide.
