Facts have proven that men do have shorter lives than women. The average life expectancy of Taiwanese men is about 5 years shorter than that of women. The average life expectancy of American men is exactly six years lower than that of women. This is inseparable from the pressure of social competition. Traditionally, men are called the backbone of the family, and their physical texture is also stronger than women in various aspects, so they often neglect rest. In order not to cause premature aging, overwork, or deterioration of your health, you must make a health plan for yourself from now on!
Modern men get up early to work, work hard for company performance, and have to be busy socializing after work. When they return home, it is already 11 pm. These busy men from the 7-11 ethnic group often lose their health unconsciously.
Why is the proportion of men who die from overwork particularly high? Are men really tired and desperate? In fact, under the influence of testosterone, a male hormone, the constant competition for hegemony seems to have become a fate that men cannot escape.
Men are by nature unconvinced
In his book "The World in the Brain" (Editor's Recommendation: The Brain Is the Largest Sexual Organ), which describes the differences between men and women, Moyle mentioned that testosterone, which dominates gender, begins to occur during the embryonic period of men. High concentrations of testosterone make men tend to think competitively, have a high degree of dominance, aggression, and self-affirmation, and become even more intense in adulthood.
Men are born "goal oriented.". They sacrifice everything, including family life, health, time, and so on, just to achieve their desires and goals, while women do not. "Men's brains cause them to suffer from heart disease and stomach ulcers," Moyle alleged.
Moreover, men are overconfident in their physical strength, thinking that youth is capital, and they won't fall down so easily.
In fact, men from the 7-11 ethnic group are only anticipating their physical strength for tomorrow. Zhao Qiang, director of the nutrition department of Danshui Mackay Hospital, believes that modern men often need to use stimulants such as cigarettes and alcohol to refresh their minds. In fact, it is only to cover up the tiredness and helplessness of "burning candles at both ends".
Stress accelerates the secretion of adrenaline, speeding up the heartbeat, tightening muscles, and maintaining the body in a tense state, which can easily lead to fatigue. The study also found that people with high stress, whether at home, exercising, working, or driving, have a higher probability of accidental injury than the average person.
Fatigue comes from overuse of certain organs. The positive benefits are protective mechanisms, while the negative benefits are maladaptation to the environment, which can easily reduce work ability and affect daily life.
Moreover, due to social and cultural constraints on gender roles, men do not understand their physical changes, making the issue of fatigue repeatedly overlooked.
