Aging, obesity, and diabetes are only slow due to new metabolism, and 8 bad habits will change from now on.

Metabolism is the body's ability to digest, absorb, and discharge waste, maintaining the orderly movement of body organs. Medically, there is no accurate definition of metabolism, or slowness. However, the University of Aberdeen’s research has found that people who exclude disease factors and have faster metabolism are healthier. The study found that after 30 years of age, metabolism decreased by 5% every 10 years, resulting in a variety of health problems such as aging, obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Although we can't fight against time, we must stay away from the following bad habits in order to make the metabolism work more rationally.

Aging, obesity, and diabetes are only slow due to new metabolism, and 8 bad habits will change from now on.

lack of sleep. Many people have a similar feeling: they often stay up late or do not work properly, and they feel very old. Experiments at the University of Surrey in the United Kingdom have shown that the function of 711 genes has changed in participants who lack sleep, which involves genes involved in metabolism. Zhou Yingchun said that lack of sleep may reduce the body's ability to regulate glucose, increase the secretion of ghrelin, make people easily feel hungry, and indirectly cause abnormal fat metabolism. It is recommended to have at least 7 hours of sleep per day.

Do not bask in the sun. On a hot summer day, many people are afraid of tanning, preferring to stay in the house. Reluctance to contact the sun, resulting in the body's vitamin D content is not easy. Vitamin D helps maintain cell health and bone metabolism, and if it is deficient, it can lead to disorders in the metabolism of calcium and bone minerals. Therefore, after lunch, you may wish to go out for a walk. On the diet, you can eat more foods rich in vitamin D such as salmon, milk, shrimp, mushrooms, and eggs.


Sedentary. A report on the health status of residents in Italy pointed out that laziness has become a long-lived nemesis. Professor Zhou Yingchun, chief physician of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southern Hospital of Southern Medical University, said that sedentary metabolism makes the metabolism slow, and for a long time, it is easy to face the threat of high blood pressure and diabetes. In contrast, people who get up every once in a while have a lower chance of developing metabolic syndrome. Stewart Baidu, a professor of sports psychology at Loughborough University in the United Kingdom, said that even if he went to the gym every day, he would sit in a chair all the time, and he would sit for a long time. Zhou Yingchun suggested that it is best for office workers to develop the habit of standing at any time, such as standing on the phone, meeting, etc.; after sedentary, they must get up and expand their chests, stretch and stretch their necks.

Do not wash your hands. A study published at the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society showed that adenovirus-36 can transform stem cells in adults into fattening fat cells through a unique gene. Dr. Jiewei, a neurobiology doctor at Southern Medical University, explained that adenovirus is a common virus that infects organs such as the respiratory tract and gastrointestinal tract. It can cause metabolic disorders in cells, often spread by coughing, sneezing, and unclean hands. Therefore, frequent hand washing can avoid the risk of viral infection and protect metabolism.

Eat fruits and vegetables without careful washing. Canadian scientists have found that toxic substances contained in foods contaminated with pesticides are stored in fat cells after ingestion, interfering with energy metabolism and slowing down metabolism. Zhu Yi, an associate professor at the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering at China Agricultural University, suggested that when washing fruits and vegetables, it is best to wash the water for half a minute. You can also add some flour to the water to soak it, rinse it, and then rinse it several times.

do not eat breakfast. The London Imperial College study found that without breakfast, the brain releases a signal that requires high calories, leading to a sharp increase in the intake of “junk food” for lunch and dinner. In the long run, the metabolism is gradually disordered, and obesity, high blood pressure, high blood fat and diabetes will all come to the door. Research by the Virginia Commonweal University shows that the more you eat breakfast, the better your blood sugar and blood lipids are controlled, and the lower the risk of metabolic disease.

The two meals are separated for too long. Regular meals for three meals a day are the laws that have evolved since human evolution. Tan Guijun, director of the Nutrition Department of Tianjin First Central Hospital, said that if a meal is not eaten, the interval between the two meals will be too long, and the human body will be starved for a long time, which will reduce the metabolic rate. Tan Guijun suggested that according to the normal emptying time of the stomach, it is best to have 4 to 6 hours between meals, and the meal can be properly added in the middle, but it is better to have healthy food such as nuts and fruits.

Irregular diet. Some people eat unrestrained, love to eat full, long-term, easy to lead to excess fat due to excessive calorie intake, imbalance of fat metabolism, and ultimately increased blood lipids. Some people often eat too little because they are afraid of getting fat, but they will let the metabolism become a "quick brake." Studies have shown that fasting for 3 days is enough to destroy metabolic function. Therefore, in order to control weight, you should eat high-fiber, low-calorie foods such as fruits and vegetables, and must eat staple foods. You can use coarse grains to replace some white rice.
