What is a disease? What is health?

What is health? Is it healthy to have no disease? Five concepts of correct health

Five concepts of correct health

1. Money is not equal to wealth

10000000000, if we compare our health to 1, then there are cars, houses, wives, children and so on behind 1. If "1" is dropped, everything behind it is equal to "0" for ourselves. Good health is over wealth. Many stars and rich people died young, and some people died because of ignorance of health.

2. Illness is not equal to health.

Some people think that they are not sick and healthy. According to the World Health Organization, 20% of the patients in the world, 75% belong to sub-healthy people, and only 5% are healthy people. Sub-health status: I can't find anything wrong when I go to the hospital, but I always feel weak, irritable, insomnia, flustered and so on. These feelings can disappear without taking medicine, but they can't disappear completely. They will always appear from time to time. In fact, its potential threat cannot be ignored. It is usually the precursor of some chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. Some scholars also call such people "semi-healthy people".

3. Eating well does not mean being nutritious.

In the past, in difficult times, people over the age of 40 might catch up with meat, wild vegetables and cakes, but now with the improvement of living standards, chickens, ducks and fish are eaten whenever they want, leading to hypertension, diabetes and various cancers everywhere. Some women eat too much, eat too much, eat too much and eat too foolishly during pregnancy, which leads to overnutrition. The baby's birth weight is 8 kg and 10kg, and some of them are more than 10kg, even reaching11~/2kg. Some babies are born with diabetes. A normal baby should weigh about 6 kilograms. Experts say that people get sick mainly because of two situations, one is caused by bacterial and viral infections, which are resisted and prevented by their own immunity; The other is unbalanced nutrition, including malnutrition and overnutrition, and balanced nutrition can be healthy. Professor Zhao Lin from the Trace Elements Research Office of the General Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army put forward the question that "what to eat and how to eat are related to the fate of the nation". There are 32 human teeth, including 20 molars, which are used to grind grains; 8 cut the teeth of fruits and vegetables; Four canine teeth are used to cut meat. The ratio of molars, incisors and canines is 7∶ 1. Therefore, people are not carnivores, and should focus on whole grains and fruits, supplemented by meat.

4. Prevention is greater than cure

Some people usually do not pay attention to investing in health care, nor do they pay attention to minor illnesses, and gradually accumulate into serious illnesses. Finally, how much do they have to pay to go to the hospital? Moreover, some hospitals now charge unreasonable fees, and the high medical expenses cause ordinary people to look down on serious illness or go bankrupt and be heavily in debt. If we pay attention to health care and prevention at ordinary times and keep healthy, we can realize that individuals will not suffer, families will not be involved and medical expenses will be reduced. A study during the Ninth Five-Year Plan period showed that spending 1 yuan on disease prevention could reduce the medical expenses and the rescue expenses of 100 yuan in 8.5 yuan. Therefore, some people describe it this way: treatment means fighting floods and emergency rescue, and prevention means planting trees.

5. Diet therapy is greater than drug therapy.

We all know that "it's a three-point poison." Drugs will have toxic and side effects on other organs while treating pathological changes in one organ. Some people only take one medicine at first, and then they eat more and more. Now, a new term has appeared in the world medical field, which is called "drug-induced disease". Food culture has a long history in China. Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the great pioneer of the democratic revolution, said: "After everything in China's modern civilization fell behind, only the progress in diet fell behind civilized countries." Our ancestors deeply realized the great role of whole grains in health from their life practice-"Eat whole grains and cereal packets to cure all diseases". Li Shizhen said: Rice oil is the chicken soup for the poor, and babies "will gain weight after eating rice oil for a hundred days". Rice porridge is the best food. Eating rice porridge will make your baby fat in vain.

I hope that in the process of pursuing health, each of us will abandon old ideas and establish new ones to guide our daily behavior.
