Recently, the old lady always hopes that the family can gather together, so that I can meet a farmer and grow a farmhouse. It is the second time I have seen my aunt since I grew up. Although she is not common, she looks more like me. When she was young, she was going to lose a lot.
The relatives saw that she was so thin, she couldn’t help but care. Her aunt couldn’t help us with her inquiries. She could only squint and smile and said: 'It’s hard to buy old and thin.'
After lunch, she took out the bottle that she carried with her and ate it secretly. In the end, 'Is it difficult to buy old and thin?', is this ancient practice still applicable?
This 'skinny' is not 'thin'
In fact, there is a wrong concept in this old saying. The 'skinny' we understand is not the 'skinny' in the old saying. In recent years, the fitness style is prevalent, young girls are no longer blindly losing weight, they are asking for leanness, not thin. We generally define the type of malnourished skinny.
In the same way, 'Thousands of gold are hard to buy old and thin'. The 'skinny' here is not what we generally understand. The ancients only use 'skinny' to express a healthy body, while the healthy 'skinny' means that there must be a certain amount. Muscle fat and body shape is slightly symmetrical.
For this reason, the elderly should not blindly pursue thinness, or ignore their own physical condition. The elderly should exercise and increase the amount of muscles properly. Otherwise, it will bring about malnutrition, low immunity and low blood sugar and low blood pressure.
Attention! Weight is not a measure of health!
Weight is a reference standard for measuring fat and thin. We should not eat too high-calorie foods in pursuit of 'fat', so that the body can gain weight in a short period of time, and should not pursue 'thin' excessive dieting or overload exercise.
Older people should slowly change within the range of their living habits and physical conditions, within the reference range of the standard weight.
Develop a healthy self-examination habit, and enjoy happiness in your old age
There are a lot of older people who are ill-healed. This is precisely the neglect of their physical condition. The so-called disease to shallow Chinese medicine practitioners, such as anyway, has always been thin, it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination.
The elderly should develop a habit of self-examination, and regularly take blood pressure from the community service. If conditions permit, they can even check the body every six months or once a year, so that they can find the disease at the first time and seek medical treatment in time to enjoy a rich life. .
