What are the dangers of bad habits

There are many bad living habits, and perhaps each of us has some bad habits, such as smoking, drinking, overeating, and irregular sleep. Bad habits can cause great harm to our body. For example, irregular sleep may affect our brain's rest and cause spots on our face, so it is recommended that everyone correct their bad habits.

1. Irregular sleep, going to bed late and getting up late

When people are in a sleeping state, their brain and body can rest, recuperate and recover. It helps people in their daily work and study. Scientifically improving sleep quality is the guarantee for people's normal work, study and life.

2. Irregular diet

Eating at regular times and in regular amounts can ensure that the digestion and absorption functions function rhythmically, and the spleen and stomach can coordinate and cooperate with each other, with a certain degree of tension and relaxation. Food can be digested, absorbed and distributed throughout the body in an orderly manner. If you have irregular meals, or eat snacks all the time, or go hungry without eating, the normal gastrointestinal digestion pattern will be disrupted, which will cause spleen and stomach disorders, weakened digestion ability, and a gradual decrease in appetite, which is harmful to your health.

3. Eating too much, or eating when you are very hungry, or drinking when you are very thirsty

"Qian Jin Yao Fang·Preface to Nourishing Nature" further points out: "Don't eat when you are extremely hungry, and don't eat too much; don't drink when you are extremely thirsty, and don't drink too much. Eating too much when you are full will cause accumulation, and drinking too much when you are thirsty will cause phlegm and diarrhea." When people are extremely hungry and thirsty, they are most likely to overeat and drink too much, and eat quickly and drink excessively. Therefore, when you are extremely hungry and thirsty, you should eat slowly to avoid harming your body. Of course, you should not force yourself to eat when you have no appetite. Forcing yourself to eat too much can damage your spleen and stomach.

4. Lack of staple food

Staple food refers to the main food traditionally on the table and the main source of energy required. Unlike protein and fat, the body's carbohydrate reserves are very limited. If the body does not get an adequate supply of carbohydrates during exercise, it will cause muscle fatigue and lack of motivation. Not only that, if the diet lacks staple foods for a long time, it will lead to low blood sugar levels, causing dizziness, palpitations, brain dysfunction and other problems. In severe cases, it can lead to hypoglycemia coma.

The "culprit" that causes obesity is total calories rather than just staple foods. Long-term lack of staple foods can lead to muscle weakness and even memory loss. Experts emphasize: "In the supply of sports and dietary nutrition, in addition to the right amount of protein, fat and water, the most important thing is the supplement of carbohydrates."

5. Eating fast

When eating fast, the feedback of the nervous system is slower than the speed of eating. By the time you feel full, you have already exceeded your limit. This will put a burden on the spleen and stomach in the long run, seriously affecting its digestive function and often causing spleen deficiency.

6. Eating junk food frequently

Junk food refers to food that only provides some calories but no other nutrients, or food that provides more nutrients than the human body needs and becomes redundant. Junk food often contains carcinogens, hormones, additives, flavors and pigments, and other ingredients that are harmful to people's health. Long-term consumption can seriously harm people's health.

7. Drinking too much or eating too much, or eating fatty and greasy food

After drinking a certain amount of alcohol, the motility of the spleen and stomach will weaken. At this time, eating too much will further increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, especially fatty and greasy food, which has the greatest impact on the spleen and stomach.

8. Go to bed after a full meal

"Records of Nurturing Nature and Prolonging Life": After a person has finished eating, he should walk hesitantly, as it will be faster if he does something to cultivate himself. Therefore, running water does not rot and door hinges do not rot, because of their frequent labor. So friends should not eat at night. After eating, they should just walk in the courtyard. It would be good if they walk for a few miles. Lying down immediately after eating a full meal will cause a variety of diseases, and the food will not be digested and will accumulate.

9. Often drink cold drinks and eat cold food

Cold drinks and cold food harm the body's positive energy, especially in summer, when people like to eat frozen drinks and frozen food. Little do they know that in summer, you need to protect your yang energy to better resist the invasion of external diseases and supply the body with positive energy.

10. Not paying attention to food safety and hygiene

While industry promotes social and economic development, it has also brought a huge impact on food hygiene and safety. Now food hygiene and safety issues are becoming increasingly serious. Only when we know more about food hygiene and safety can we better protect our health.

11. Lack of exercise

12. Frequent overwork

Middle-aged people are in their prime, but they are entrusted with various important tasks, including supporting the elderly, raising children and arranging family life. They should be careful to avoid long-term "overload operation" to prevent excessive fatigue and illness from overwork.
