Five secrets of drinking white tea to make you live longer

"longevity is something that people are pursuing in ancient and modern times. Modern people have ample living materials and well-developed medical care, and their life expectancy is relatively long. But even so, people's pursuit of longevity has not changed, always hoping that they can live longer. So, how can you make yourself live longer? "

First, slightly fat

Modern people tend to regard thin as their beauty, and fat people become unpopular. From a medical point of view, being too fat does increase the risk of a variety of diseases, but excessive pursuit of bony sensation is also a misunderstanding. Being a little fat is a good-looking and healthy figure, and people of any age should not lose weight too much.

In life, many people do not dare to eat a lot of food because they are afraid to suffer from chronic diseases or aggravate their illness. as a result, it is often counterproductive, resulting in insufficient intake of energy and protein. it brings risks such as iron deficiency anemia, decreased immunity and increased susceptibility to disease.

How to control weight through diet?

People who are too thin can gain moderate weight in the following ways:

In addition to three meals a day, add two to three light meals

Eat some high-energy snacks such as milk and nuts

Appropriate amount of exercise to increase appetite

Adjust the mood and ensure sufficient sleep time.

Middle-aged and elderly people who are too obese should also lose weight by:

Eat more low-energy foods such as fruits and vegetables and konjac.

Eat less high-energy foods such as sweets and sugary drinks

Drink plenty of mung beans, corn and other miscellaneous cereal porridge

Reduce the intake of animal fat such as fat, viscera, etc.

Keep exercising every day.

Second, slightly cool

There is a close relationship between temperature and health, especially room temperature and dietary temperature. Studies have shown that the best ambient temperature is 18 ℃ to 20 ℃, when the human body feels slightly cold, but the body can maximize its immunity, stronger disease resistance and higher sleep quality. For example, China's famous Changshou Township, Guangxi Bama Yao Autonomous County, where the average annual temperature is about 20 ℃.

It should be warned that people should not use external means to interfere with room temperature too much, ignoring their own thermoregulatory system. For example, the room temperature is set too high in winter, and you can even wear short sleeves and eat popsicles; the temperature is set too low in summer, and you have to cover quilts when you sleep at night. The suitable room temperature is 16 ℃ to 20 ℃ in winter and 24 ℃ to 26 ℃ in summer.

Third, slightly hungry

Persisting in eating until seven minutes full for a long time can not only ensure nutritional intake, but also help to control weight and keep a clear head. But for many people, it's getting harder and harder to stay seven percent full.

Seven percent fullness is a kind of slight hunger feeling that seems to be full but not full, and is still hungry for food. The stomach is not full, the enthusiasm for food has declined, the speed of eating has slowed down, but still habitually want to eat, but if the food is removed, you will soon forget to eat. Generally speaking, under the condition that the meal time is relatively regular and fixed, if you eat seven percent of this meal, you will not feel hungry before the next meal, otherwise you can increase the amount of food if you don't get seven points.

The following three methods of ▎ are good for grasping the feeling of slight hunger:

First, concentrate on eating, not talking or watching TV while eating.

Second, chew slowly and feel the change in your enthusiasm for food and the feeling of fullness in your stomach

Third, less refined and more coarse, coarse grains and so on need to chew a few more to swallow food can make people slow down the eating speed, conducive to feeling full, while white, soft, oil and fiber less food will make people unwittingly eat more.

4. Slight perspiration

Sweating during exercise is often used as a criterion for judging the effect of exercise. But for the middle-aged and elderly, sweating is not the best exercise state, which may lead to collapse, fall injury, asthma, chest tightness, abdominal pain and so on. Therefore, the middle-aged and elderly should follow the principle of moderation, and it is appropriate to sweat slightly, feel tired and feel comfortable.

Stay outdoors for at least 30 minutes every day, preferably 1 hour

The maximum heart rate of exercise is controlled within the range of "170 minus one's age".

Walking, swimming and doing Taijiquan are all good choices.

The morning is not the best time to exercise, and the World Health Organization recommends that 9 a.m. to 10:00 and 16:00 to 20:00 are suitable for exercise.

5. Slight foolishness

Longevity is inseparable from the optimistic and open-minded attitude, and the open-minded state of mind comes from the indifferent fame and wealth, rare confused philosophy. As a centenarian said: "do not seek fame, do not seek profit, do not worry, do not get angry, can live a big age." On the contrary, people who haggle over everything and take things seriously tend to cause a variety of diseases such as high blood pressure, gastric ulcers and neurasthenia due to inner anger and depression, and eventually lose their health.

In order to keep in good health, you must first cultivate your heart, be confused and unrestrained in your life, be able to afford it, and learn to be foolish and laugh at yourself is the great wisdom. Making more friends, cultivating hobbies, reading frequently and exercising more are all beneficial to people's mental health.

Drink white tea

The destruction of free radicals is the chief culprit of human aging. The vast majority of women turn to cosmetics, but unfortunately, the aging factor is more from within the body. Modern research shows that tea is one of the natural plants with the strongest ability of scavenging free radicals.

Tea polyphenols can inhibit all kinds of oxidases and can efficiently scavenge free radicals, which is the fastest antioxidant pathway, and can also inhibit the production of free radicals and activate the antioxidant enzyme system of human body. the antioxidant effect of tea polyphenols is obviously better than that of vitamin E, and its anti-aging effect is 18 times stronger than that of vitamin E, and has synergistic effect with vitamin C and E.

Because of its natural processing technology, white tea has a significant anti-aging effect, its antioxidant content is more than 3 times higher than green tea, can more effectively neutralize free radicals, and is still regarded as the strongest antioxidant plant in nature. Vitamin E in white tea is a natural antioxidant with considerable anti-aging effect. The main mechanism is that white tea contains more theanine, flavonoids and low content of free radicals.

We can also drink a few bowls of tea every day to remove free radicals from the body. 90% of the free radicals in the human body come from abnormal fermentation in the intestinal tract.

So, often drink a cup of white tea, develop such a good habit, almost all of these free radicals can be removed, how simple!
