Osteoporosis in the elderly, the relative degradation of bodily functions, what are taboo in everyday life do?

Elderly people are often willing to Yang Bo bogey over the sofa watching TV, looked up talking to someone. Over time, easy to oppress the neck arteries, poor blood flow, feeling dizziness, nausea, or even partially paralyzed.

Ji stood stood wearing pants to wear old pants is very dangerous. Because the old bone has osteoporosis, a fall, but stop unstable, and prone to cause fracture.

Ji belt tight is best to use older elastic waistband. Belt too tight, easy to make poor lower body blood flow, especially in the anal capillaries and more easy to get hemorrhoids poor blood supply.

Ji suddenly go back to older persons walking in the street, I heard an acquaintance call or hear unusual noise, do not suddenly turn back. Many elderly people there because of neck bone hyperplasia, neck-twisting easily oppression acute blood vessels, causing insufficient blood supply to the head, eyes dark and fell there.

Ji Chang-force the elderly defecation constipation. Defecation not ring true, we should use drugs can not be a hard row. Because human beings are easy to elevated blood pressure defecation, excessive force may lead to collapse, shock lead to stroke, life-threatening.

A good chew, nutritious food choices are usually the elderly the most basic requirement. The tomato as well compatible with these two features, high quality goods on the table for many of the elderly, and some elderly people, or even to be considered a day of fruit to eat.

 However, China Agricultural University, Food Science and Nutritional Engineering, Associate Professor, FAN Zhi-hong is a reminder, the elderly, especially the stomach is not a good person, not suitable for raw tomatoes. Because it is despite the high content of vitamin C, but still partial health, cold, and slightly acidic, which may bring this to elderly people with weak constitution, stomach cold aggravated or cause indigestion.

  FAN Zhi-hong said the tomatoes inside the human body contains beneficial antioxidant lycopene, it has to reduce clogged arteries, prevent cancer, there is some support. However, lycopene is fat-soluble substance, and subject to cooking oils and fats will naturally be released. Therefore, cooked tomatoes, especially after the heating of the vegetable fried can be dissolved more lycopene, but also more conducive to the human body absorption.

  Therefore, the elderly is best to eat tomatoes so ripe: the eggs fry, or laver, rape and so on made soup. In the course of soup, preferably by adding an appropriate amount of vegetable oil, in order to facilitate the dissolution of lycopene.

   In addition, the tomato skin suggest the best retained, since it cellulose content was high, with skin will allow the elderly to eat along with dietary intake while maintaining intestinal health.

U.S. researchers on the 16th, said a component in curry may help stimulate the immune system cells to engulf the protein leading to cerebral infarction.

Lead to cerebral infarction in Alzheimer’s disease protein is the culprit. The researchers said that in the isolated a component of turmeric, can produce symptoms of senile dementia specific inhibition. Turmeric is an Indian curry powder to make significant yellow color of spices. University of California, Los Angeles, Milan. Fee Allah and his colleagues say such a component may be able to enter the patient’s body, treat incurable and deadly Alzheimer’s disease.

Other studies have shown that in the laboratory and in mice, curcumin (turmeric’s anti-oxidants) can help to prevent tumor formation. Fee Allah team in the “National Academy of Sciences,” the authors said they had earlier that curcumin may affect patients with Alzheimer’s disease brain cells. They separated out “two to methoxy curcumin”, and make sure it is the most active ingredient curcumin.

Them from the Alzheimer’s patient’s blood samples found that 2 to methoxy curcumin can enhance called “macrophages,” a kind of immune cells (responsible for engulf and destroy deformed cells and the fight against invaders such as bacteria or viruses), thereby Elimination of “β-amyloid?” proteins, which β-amyloid? blocking Alzheimer’s patient’s brain, killing their brain cells.

The researchers also said that we do not know whether humankind can eat enough curcumin to achieve this level of activity, but they said as long as the approach by injecting, you can easily make to reach an active level of dimethoxy curcumin.

Some studies have shown that people who eat plenty of curry, may be less prone to cancer or Alzheimer’s disease, as this is not the role of curry, then not yet clear.

In winter, the hospital due to cerebral infarction or recurrent cerebral infarction and treatment of patients increased significantly. Then, in the cold season how health-care regimen in order to prevent cerebral infarction, so do their own safely through the winter?

Is not greedy, to prevent the “disease from the mouth” to ward off the winter cold, people need to intake more calories, so the table a variety of meat products increased significantly, such as shabu-shabu, BBQ, etc., which will increase the blood fat disease, atherosclerosis risk. Here to draw attention to the elderly in winter tonic should be noted that hand, addition of meat on the table except food, the daily fruit and vegetables are essential. But also to those who prefer hot pot in the elderly mind you, especially those who were heavier body shape has been found to be suffering, or hypertension, hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis in the elderly, the restaurant’s ingredients partial salt, of drinking water due to a large number of very easy meal to make to increase blood volume and increased blood pressure. Therefore, Do not eat too much pursuit of taste, should be less seasoning. In addition, eating shabu-shabu, the lipids in the short term increase in blood viscosity increase as can be induced by acute cerebral infarction, it should be less choice of fat-marbled beef, fat sheep, broth, etc., may be more choices of fish and other seafood.

The water, reducing blood viscosity to increase water intake, in particular, should not be over-control of water intake before going to bed. Studies have shown that cerebral infarction occurred in the dawn will most likely get up get up during and just after, because this time the blood viscosity, easy thrombosis blockage. Some of the elderly in order to reduce the number Qiye, slept, after dinner began to control the amount of drinking water, thereby increasing the blood viscosity. Winter is relatively dry season of the year, coupled with winter heating, the room air humidity is not enough to restrict the water cause the blood in the water even more inadequate, increasing the incidence of stroke. Therefore, the elderly should not be too much before 8 pm, water restriction. For those who do more than nocturnal or early morning the next day, when there is facial edema should not be drinking at night, people can also be used to get up slow down the action and early morning drinking a cup of warm water after the first measures. Need to be reminded that, before going to bed does not include drinking water, tea or coffee and the like, because of its diuretic effect will lead to water discharge, increasing blood viscosity. In addition, if the bath should shower before and after drinking a glass of water to supplement the body of water lost due to bathing.

Dress warm, in particular, should pay attention to the elderly on the environment Qiye temperature tolerance decreased significantly in the face of cold stimulation, the adrenal glands to increase activity to promote blood circulation and speed up against the cold. At the same time an increase in adrenal hormone secretion cause vasoconstriction, high blood pressure, high blood pressure may cause cerebral hemorrhage, accelerated blood flow has to artery clogging plaque off the risk of cerebral blood vessels. In addition, the cold air will suddenly shrink blood vessels, the lumen thinning, if a large number of lipid deposition within the lumen and plaque, then easily blocked the blood circulation. Especially in the night, when the clothes to leave a warm blanket Qiye thin, this will be more obvious cold stimulation. Therefore, the winter the old people in addition to the changes according to temperature changes in a timely manner to avoid clothing and cold, the Qiye warm when you should pay attention.

Ground-based activities, a good mood is very important to the winter cold wind makes the majority of elderly people choose indoor activities, physical activity decreased significantly. In addition, the substantial increase in winter, often due to loss of appetite, and overeating. At this point, if insufficient physical activity will reduce the heat consumption, fat accumulation, leading to obesity. In addition, the alternating cold and warm air will be on people’s physical, psychological have a definite impact, there is emotionally unstable and likely to cause cerebral vascular accident. Thus, in winter, the elderly should continue to adhere to outdoor exercise. This not only can help consume excess calories, can also be a rich cultural and sports activities to enhance communication with others, adjust their mentality. But the exercise should not be too large and should not be sweating to whole body heat has not yet been sweating can be. Elderly activities should pay attention to gradual buildup. Daily morning exercises should be arranged in the sun came out, when temperatures will rise so as to avoid stimulation due to cold air, a sudden contraction of vascular-induced cardiovascular and cerebrovascular accident.

Each observation, there is new information has long been patient with hypertension, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, diabetes, atrial fibrillation and other diseases who are at high risk of stroke, in addition to the laws they have to follow doctor’s advice to take the appropriate drugs, but also long-term use drugs such as aspirin or Polivy, preventing platelet aggregation, thrombosis. Life, patients and their families in addition to observe the existing symptoms of the disease, we must also note that those new symptoms, such as whether the dark color of stool discharge (gastrointestinal bleeding), brushing teeth, and so whether there is any bleeding, if abnormal changes, should see a doctor promptly. In addition, when the sudden appearance of recurrent vertigo, tinnitus, deafness, unsteady gait, speech vague shoulder or hand numbness, when, suggesting that the precursor thrombosis, or blood clots have formed, it is timely health care, so as not to miss the best time of their treatment. Some data indicate that the onset of cerebral infarction within 3 to 6 hours in patients treated with more than 6 hours after the treatment of the disability was 40% lower.
