   With the increase of the elderly population, there are more and more elderly people who exercise in the morning, but there are different opinions on guiding the elderly to exercise. Patients with heart disease and stroke due to morning exercise come to the emergency department There are a lot of doctors in the department, of which a large proportion of deaths from heart disease. In response to this situation, here are some guidance for the elderly to exercise in the morning to improve the quality of life.

   Most elderly people wake up at 3-5 in the morning, that is, when they are in the morning. A healthy person should be in a deep sleep state at this time, but a frail person or an elderly person may experience insomnia or wake up at this time. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that blood in this period begins to flow into the lung meridian. The lung meridian stands for the beginning and the beginning, and it is the beginning of yang qi. It is also the day when the body begins to rotate from the static state.

   The demand for blood and qi in all parts begins to increase. At this time, the lung as the "Fang Fu''s official" has assumed the responsibility of balancing the world (body). Once "Xuanfa" and "Su Dereliction of duty will have serious consequences. At this time, the demand for blood and gas in all parts of the body will increase, and the corresponding blood in the brain will be reduced. If the brain is not fully nourished by the blood, it will naturally lose sleep or wake up. coming.

  This has caused a reduction in the return of blood and increased the burden on the heart; and then the invasion of cold air, the blood vessels are prone to spasm and contraction, which is why many heart disease patients die in the early morning). People who wake up can''t fall asleep, they simply go outside to exercise, and there will be vasospasm and contraction, and often terrible heart disease and stroke will occur.

  Morning exercise is acceptable for young and middle-aged people, but for the elderly, of course, for those young and middle-aged workers who are often busy, sudden excessive exercise is also not good, especially those with normal ECG during physical examination However, those who usually have panic, shortness of breath, or chest tightness often think that they are healthy when the physical examination indicators are normal.

  Here we emphasize that people live in feelings, not in tests and other indicators. If the indicators are okay, it does not mean that our bodies are very healthy, which is why some people are uncomfortable. Seeing a doctor is "carrying a sickness", and it is not until the indicators have problems that you seek medical advice and medicine, then you become seriously ill, just like "thirsty to go to dig a well" and "drops of water" to see a doctor. same.

  It is recommended that elderly people exercise again at night. At this time, blood vessels are also tolerated, but exercise is better to sweat a little. Chinese medicine believes that "sweat and blood are homologous", and sweat also comes from the blood. Excessive sweating will hurt blood, which will increase the burden on the heart-the heart is prone to ischemia; on the other hand, you should maintain a good mood when exercising. Only by following the way of keeping in good health can we have a healthy body.
