Men seem stronger than women, but often at critical moments, they are more likely to be knocked down by disease. Epidemiological surveys by the World Health Organization show that men's hearts are more vulnerable than women's, and Chinese men are more than twice as likely to develop cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases as women. Men's intestines and stomach are also more vulnerable than women's: clinical experts found that the incidence rate of gastrointestinal diseases in men aged 15 to 50 is 6.2 times that of women. Frequent socializing makes men extremely susceptible to various hepatitis viruses, and pushing glasses to replace glasses at the table can bring irreversible liver damage. Coupled with prostate problems, they pose a huge risk to men's health. In a survey, 80% of seriously ill men in China admitted that their bodies have repeatedly overdrawn due to long-term neglect of minor health issues. Several authoritative experts have unveiled the four lines of defense for men's health, safeguarding their health.
Line 1: Don't eat fat after age 40
Americans refer to cardiovascular disease as "male disease." They have found that men in their forties and fifties who have large stomachs and smoke mostly carry a diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. Medical experts at the National University of Ireland suggest that to reduce this phenomenon, women must take good care of their husbands' mouths, help men quit smoking, and write a heart care diet. Fan Zhihong, an associate professor at the School of Food at China Agricultural University, pointed out that men are the most fond of eating meat and fried foods, and their preference for animal fat can lead to excessive fat, which can precipitate on blood vessels, causing arteriosclerosis and thrombosis. "To control a man's mouth, it is necessary to make them eat more fish, soy products, nuts, oats, and garlic, which are the" nemesis "of cardiovascular disease.". In addition, you should also eat less salt, eat more fruit, and avoid eating animal offal and fat after the age of 40.
Line 2: Put a bottle of emergency medicine in your bag
Among sudden deaths caused by cardiovascular diseases, the proportion of men is much higher than that of women. For men who are obese, smoke, and chronically fatigued and stressed, a heart attack may occur during playing ball games, bathing, meetings, or eating. Men over the age of 40, especially those with high risk factors for heart disease, should carry emergency medicine with them to "insure" their hearts. For example, keep a bottle of nitroglycerin in a leather bag or pocket, and prepare a bottle for frequent stays at the bedside, study, office, bathroom, etc. Once a condition occurs, immediately take one tablet and place it under the tongue. "If the pain symptoms have not significantly reduced after taking the drug, it may be a myocardial infarction, and you must go to the hospital immediately.".
Line 3: Eat out and drink less strong tea
Some people say, "There are two reasons why men have stomach problems: they are either angry with their superiors or angry with their wives." Although this is a joke, in order to have a good stomach and intestines, it is necessary to reduce negative emotions such as anger, tension, and anxiety. In addition, it should not give too much food stimulation to the fragile stomach. When men socialize outside, their wives should often remind them to drink less strong tea, strong liquor, and coffee, as well as eat less raw, cold, and spicy foods, thereby reducing gastric acid secretion. Men with a bad stomach should also smoke less because the nicotine in it can also stimulate the gastric mucosa and cause gastric dysfunction.
Line 4: Have some millet porridge in the morning and evening
The incidence rate of gastric diseases, especially gastric ulcer and gastric cancer, is higher in men than in women. "If you want to help them protect their stomachs, it is most important to treat them according to three points and maintain them according to seven points.". A man's "stomach protecting jingle": every meal is eight minutes full, vegetables and fruits are indispensable, eat more white meat instead of red meat, and drink millet porridge in the morning and evening. In addition, chewing slowly and eating more soft, rotten, and processed foods can also reduce the "workload" of the gastrointestinal tract. But glutinous rice is not easy to absorb, so eat less. People with digestive tract ulcers should not drink too much milk.
