Often want to small but great work.

Zhang Xueliang China Academy of traditional Chinese Medicine

China's traditional Chinese medicine reported

        " Nature of work, often for little, but a great." This is the famous Tang Dynasty medical home Sun Simiao to our warnings.

        Here the" fatigue" contains movement, activity and labor. That is to say, want to live long, have a good grasp of the degree of activity. Do not, nor too, so tired.

        The longevity of the people and work

        The longevity of at all times and in all countries, mostly hard labors practitioner. Someone in the Xinjiang area of our country part of longevity elderly investigated, found that 73% of the survivors have long been engaged in agricultural labor of the farmer. Akesu area of 10 centenarians, of whom 8 were manual workers. Guangxi Bama region over 90 years old, almost all manual workers. In the National People's Congress, there was once a farmer longevity -- ran until his late aunt, still hale and hearty, shine with happiness, eat and sleep. She was 104 years old when the field not only participate in labor, and raises 3 big fat pig, at the age of 105 to participate in the National People's Congress, people ask her longevity and health have what secret, she humorously said:" the secret is every day labor, the tonic is the sun and rain. Do not believe, you have a try." All her life she never takes any medicine, not followed, at the age of 109. Japan for over one hundred years old in the survey also found that, with 1 / 2 at the age of 75, 1 / 3 in 80 to 84 years old, still without interruption of manual labor, the brainworker of longevity, almost all labor of love or like sports, examples of this be too numerous to enumerate.

        In medicine, the human body in normal physiological conditions, dynamic and static should maintain a relative balance. Often the appropriate labor movement, can promote the physical and mental health. Chang Qin is four, five organs of Qi and blood is exuberant, muscle fullness solid, flexible joint movement, the hundred vessels patency, it is agile, quick response, strengthen and active life function. Movement and labor is the normal physiological need, but also the necessary condition of human health. Reasonable sport for the human body internal Qi and blood running undoubtedly has a very good role, is also in line with the principles of life. Moderate and reasonable rest, can make the body and brain to rest, maintain abundant physical strength and energy.

        Overuse injury prone body disease

        The ancient famous doctor Hua Tuo once said:" the human body often want to work, but not the pole ear."

        See" Romance of the Three Kingdoms" person, do you remember which has such a plot: Sima Yi from Shu that heard Zhu Geliang up early and stay up late, take care of every single thing personally, eat little and a series of relevant living situation, asserted that the prime minister would not live long, the results can not be expected, Zhu Geliang soon depart from the world for ever, and died year only 54 years old. According to Zhu Geliang Sima Yi 's long-term attention to living adjustment, trouble too, nutritional deficiencies, will damage the health, shorten the life span, the fulfillment of a prophecy.

        Have done an interesting experiment: to fatigue and no fatigue monkeys at the same time an equal volume of germs, results of fatigue infected monkeys that were sick, not fatigue monkeys but safe and sound. This shows that fatigue can reduce the biological resistance, confirms the traditional Chinese medicine on" overfatigue pathogenic" theory.

        Therefore we have to" work", but not" overfatigue". Labor excessive consumption wound blood, less fatigue, less lazy gas words, mental fatigue, muscle wasting; heavy bones, muscle injury, caused by low back pain, joint pain. " Yin, lifting pain on" said: "the work, gas consumption"," work, wheezing sweating". Therefore, any physical labor can not be too long, do according to one's abilities, should "sit to tired, do not want to work". Too long is beyond the human body can bear, on the body damage. Particularly hungry full of labor, labor is strong, wounding pathogenic factors.

        Fatigue, which not only refers to physical labor, also include mental work. Advocate use of brain science, is asking people in hard with the brain at the same time, but also with the brain, focusing on brain maintenance, to prevent fatigue operations. When the brain is too long, feel tired, want to rest, or through physical training, culture and entertainment and other means to regulate the body and mind, restore energy. Modern medicine thinks, when mental labor excessive tension or sustained for too long, the cerebral cortex and the nervous system part from euphoria to inhibit, appear thinking nimble, unresponsive, attention is not centered, memory loss, reduced work capacity. If no time to rest, forced to continue to work, will cause excessive fatigue. Long-term overuse of nerve cell load in excess of the physiological functions of the boundaries, excitatory and inhibitory processes is losing balance, neurasthenia and other lesions produced.

        Excessive is not conducive to health

        In modern society, with the accelerated pace of life and lifestyle changes, people's physical labor intensity is reduced, also greatly reduced," he is ignorant," by a joke is becoming more and more popular. But you don't forget, fatigue easily hurt, over-easy can also be pathogenic. Greedy Yat is excessive, without proper physical or mental work, do not participate in physical exercise, the body running sluggish, spleen function abate, Jingshenbuzhen, physical decline, the body system, organ function, decreased immunity, make all sorts of illness. People put some body fat, limb weakness, predisposition to diabetes, coronary heart disease and other diseases, known as the "modern leisure disease" patients. To eliminate this rich man's disease by means of " Qin", can not be ignored labor fitness effects, be diligent to participate in a variety of production labor or exercise, to achieve health, fitness purposes.

        So to have a good work and rest, dynamic and static, and" small Lo" obstacle" exhausted", to health and longevity.
