WHO has defined ten standards of human health:
1, energetic, able to undertake daily busy work calmly.
2, optimistic, positive attitude, willing to take responsibility, not picky.
3. Be good at rest and have a good sleep.
4, strong adaptability, can adapt to various changes in the environment.
5, can resist the common cold and infectious diseases.
6, moderate weight, well-proportioned, head, shoulders, hip position coordination when standing.
7, bright eyes, quick response, eyes and eyelids are not inflamed.
8, clean teeth, no dental caries, no pain, normal gum color, no bleeding.
9, the hair is shiny, no dandruff.
10, muscular and elastic skin.
Second, what are the factors that affect health?
I think there are four factors that affect our health: the basic material of life, psychological quality, natural social environment and personal behavior habits.
(1) The basic material health that constitutes our human life is physical health.
1, first of all, genetic material (gene) is better. It's from our parents. We have no choice. Of the 23 pairs of chromosomes that make up our human genome, half are from our father and the other half are from our mother. He decides what diseases we can't get in this life and what diseases we may get under what conditions. (See "Genes and Health" on this website for details)
2. The diet we eat in the process of growing up should meet the requirements of health. For example, we all know that about 70% of people's weight is water. First of all, it is very important that the water we drink every day should meet our health standards; Secondly, it is very important that the food we eat every day should meet our health requirements. This is an important condition to ensure our health.
(2) The correct attitude towards life and society is: psychology and health.
1, the first is to keep a psychological balance, so that honor and disgrace are not surprised. That is to say: No matter what we encounter in life and work that deserves your happiness or misfortune, we should face it frankly. Because everything has a limit, and if it goes too far, it will go to the other side of things. Therefore, great joy and great sorrow will stimulate the nervous system, thus affecting the disorder of other physiological circulatory systems, damaging our health and even hurting our lives. For example, Jin Fan was overjoyed; The legendary "Cheng Xiao died in an iron ball grave" is a tragedy caused by his unexpected joy because he didn't grasp his psychological balance.
2. If you can't change others, you can live in harmony with others.
3, correctly face setbacks and diseases, remember: "What hurts you is not the event itself, but your view of the event"!
(c) Good natural and social environment: environment and health.
If you can't change the environment, you can adapt to it. The environment mentioned here is the natural environment and social environment. Our own strength is very small for the environment. Therefore, we should try our best to adapt to nature and society. "Natural selection, survival of the fittest" is also the basic law of the survival of all things.
Humans are constantly evolving to adapt to many changes in the natural environment. A good natural environment is of course the basic condition of health. Based on sunshine, air and water, we have been able to improve the local environment and return to nature. (such as: sun protection and radiation protection products; Air filter, negative ion generator; Good natural water machine, ozone detoxification machine, etc. )
We all know that "everyone who lives near Zhu Zhechi is black", so it is very important for our health to choose what kind of social environment to live in. What friends you make and who you often deal with will subtly influence and change your habits. Mencius, a thinker and educator, only appeared with three neighbors in Meng Mu.
The positive social environment makes our thoughts open actively; Otherwise, in the harsh social environment, it is easy to produce pessimistic and depressed thoughts; A stable social environment makes us feel safe and can concentrate on our work; Otherwise, in a turbulent environment, people will be nervous and afraid; Harmonious social environment makes us feel comfortable and healthy physically and mentally; Otherwise, you fight for each other, and the law of the jungle leads to "rabbits bite when they are in a hurry", and the tragedy that should not happen is repeated.
(D) Personal life behavior has a great impact on health: habits and health.
This is determined by our subjective thoughts, accounting for about 60% of the ingredients that affect health. Especially those bad hobbies, which are harmful to health. Active and healthy living habits can make sick people recover gradually. How can we achieve the above four points?
Third, we should work hard in four aspects.
1992 world health organization. Put forward four cornerstones of health: reasonable diet, moderate exercise, quitting smoking and drinking less, and maintaining psychological balance. According to my understanding of health, it should be revised as: reasonable diet, moderate exercise, quitting smoking and drinking, and maintaining psychological balance.
1, reasonable diet
Diet, drink first and then eat. As early as Li Shizhen's time, people have realized the importance of drinking water to health. So he put "water" before "food" in Compendium of Materia Medica. It is pointed out that "medicine is not as good as food, and food is not as good as water." Good water is the king of all medicines, and good water is the source of longevity. This is what I want to modify for the truth.
Have you seriously considered the importance of drinking water health? According to the WHO survey of the World Health Organization, 80% of human diseases are related to water. Modern nutritionists believe that the quality of drinking water is an important part of our quality of life. Your drinking habits today will also determine your health in 10 years.
What water should we drink today is good for our health?
Let's take a look at the only place in the world where cancer has never happened, Changshou Village in the Caucasus Mountains. /kloc-There are many elderly people over 0/00 years old. According to WHO research, the most fundamental reason for their longevity is that the water they drink every day is: small molecular groups and weak alkalinity. Water is the medium of body nutrition.
Nutrition believes that according to physiological functions, there are three major nutrients in the human body:
One kind: structural nutrients, such as protein, fat, carbohydrate, macro minerals, inorganic salts, etc.
The second category: regulating nutrients, such as trace elements and vitamins.
Three types: medium nutrients, namely water.
Water plays the role of "medium" and "bridge" in constructing and regulating the absorption of nutrients by human body. The mission of water is to transport these two nutrients to human cells. If there is no water, these two nutrients will be rejected by cells, which is why people will die if they are dehydrated.
In addition, water also has the function of discharging garbage from the body through defecation and perspiration. Under normal circumstances, the water content of human body is 18, and people who don't drink water for 7 days will die of thirst. The reason is that when the human body is seriously short of water, it will cause electrolyte disorder, blood concentration and liver function disorder. If you are short of water for 7 days, your body will lose 20% water and die of thirst. 2, moderate exercise, I read in a medical book, moderate exercise is for exercise. There are some reference indicators: when you are exercising, your heart rate should not exceed about 30% of your normal heart rate, which is 60-90 beats/min; During exercise, the heart rate is about 78- 1 17 beats/min. Too fast is strenuous exercise. If you don't master this well, you can rely on your own feelings during exercise, such as feeling a little hot and sweating all over, which proves that your exercise has been achieved. This will vary from person to person, so it is ok to pay more attention to yourself in the usual exercise! 3. Quit smoking and drink less. There are as many as 300 million smokers in China. According to the estimation of Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine, about 400 million people are still harmed by passive smoking, so about 700 million people in China are directly or indirectly harmed by tobacco. 92% of cigarette smoke is gas, such as carbon monoxide, hydrocyanic acid and ammonia. 8% is particulate matter, collectively known as tar, containing nicotine, polycyclic aromatic hydroxyl, benzopyrene, β -naphthylamine and so on. About 40 carcinogens have been confirmed. The harm of smoking to human body is a slow process, which takes a long time to show, while nicotine is addictive and it is difficult for smokers to know. Smoking can induce many cancers, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, respiratory and digestive tract diseases, etc. This is one of the biggest causes of premature death and disability. A 40-year study in Britain proved that the mortality rate of middle-aged smokers is three times that of non-smokers. According to WHO data, at present, 3 million people worldwide die of various diseases related to smoking every year, which is expected to rise to 1 10 million by 2025, and China will account for 2 million. Smoking has become an urgent problem that seriously endangers the health of our people. Benefits of moderate drinking: moderate drinking, two cups a day, can reduce the possibility of dying of heart disease. Alcohol actually helps to prevent the formation of blood clots, thus effectively preventing the possibility of stroke and heart attack. People who drink moderately live longer than those who don't drink at all! A large number of studies have shown that moderate drinking can also help prevent arteriosclerosis, which is the main cause of heart attack.
A study of 89,000 middle-aged women by Harvard University found that people who drink three to nine glasses of wine a week are 40% less likely to suffer from heart disease than those who don't drink. Another study on 10 surveyed nearly130,000 men and women, and found that people who drink one or two glasses of wine every day are 30% less likely to die of coronary heart disease than those who don't drink at all.
The American Heart Association pointed out that moderate drinking can increase the content of benign high-density lipoprotein and reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Drinking can also relieve anxiety. In any case, this is one of the benign effects of alcohol.
It is generally believed that it is appropriate for women to drink a glass of wine every day, and its physiological function is similar to that of men drinking two glasses of wine every day.
4. Keep a psychological balance (it is recommended to check the mentality and health, mood and health).
The above four points are easier said than done. Only by having a correct attitude towards life and rich health knowledge can we cultivate good living habits. There is a very good saying: "thought controls behavior, behavior creates habits, habits become character, and character dominates fate." So it is very important to learn more new health knowledge.
Professor Hong Zhaoguang once said: Many people die not from diseases, but from ignorance of their own diseases. Because without knowledge, you don't know how to prevent, how to recuperate, how to cooperate with treatment correctly, and what mentality you should use to treat your own diseases. So such people, they actually died not of disease, but of ignorance.
Therefore, it is said: "Sowing thoughts harvest behaviors, sowing behaviors harvest habits, sowing habits harvest characters, and sowing characters harvest fate." It is very important to accept new health concepts. In particular, the implementation of the human genome project has brought great gospel to people who need health. As we all know, for diseases, it is cheapest to prevent them than to cure them. According to the comprehensive calculation of some institutions, if the cost of treating diseases is 100 yuan, only 8 yuan money is needed for preventing diseases. If a minor illness is not cured, it will become a serious illness, and the cost will be even greater. The result may still be "people and money are empty."
