The elderly have decreased their functions and immunity in all aspects, so they need to pay more attention to their diet and strengthen their resistance through appropriate activities. And what kind of sports should I choose when I’m in the year? Japanese psychiatrist, who has long studied medical care for the elderly, Hideshu Wada, suggested that if the environment and conditions allow, choosing to walk in the swimming pool will be more suitable for the elderly than on the ground.
Wata has always advocated that elderly people should eat more of what they like and do not force themselves to eat specific foods (such as taking it crazy if others say they are good for health). If people eat too much the same food, it is easy to cause chronic allergies and the risk of oxidation in the body. He believed that eating according to the desires of the brain and body can improve immunity.
Wata said that many elderly people take long-term medications due to chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, coupled with diet restrictions, have weakened immunity and are more likely to be infected with the new coronary pneumonia, and cancer is also prone to inducement.
He pointed out that daily exercise is important, but if it is too intense, it will increase the reactive oxygen species in the body and lead to accelerated aging. According to the data of gym users, people in their 60s are the most commonly used ethnic group, followed by people in their 70s, but he believes that when they are old, excessive exertion may damage tendons.
Wata believes that if you want to go to the gym, you can choose a venue with a swimming pool, but it is not really going down to swim, but recommends strolling in the water, because there is buoyancy in the water, and you don’t have to worry about your weight that will damage your knees or waist. This is a better movement for the elderly than walking in the mountains. In addition, the cold in the water will stimulate the body to maintain its temperature, which can prevent the function of the body temperature adjustment and improve the new Chen Daixi, which also has a relaxing effect in the water itself.
Wata said that he did not want to go to the gym because of his age. He hoped that everyone could enjoy the fun of walking in the water. If there was no suitable gym near his home, even walking every day would be a good exercise for the elderly. Walking in the sun outside can help prevent bone relieving and secrete serotonin, which can make you feel brighter and avoid suffering from depression.
