Develop good living habits

With the changes in people's pursuits nowadays, the previous life pattern of working from sunrise to sunset no longer exists. Especially in some big cities, there are a lot of activities at night, which makes it impossible for the body, which has consumed energy all day long, to get a good rest. If this continues for a long time, it will lead to sub-health status of the human body. The best way to improve this situation is to develop good living habits.

The so-called cultivating good living habits does not just mean that you pay attention to rest. In fact, there are many small details in life. If you do not pay attention to them, the long-term accumulation will affect people's physical health. Therefore, if you want to cultivate good living habits, you must start with the small things around you. The specific methods of cultivating good living habits are as follows:

Traditional squatting toilet.

Reason: Nowadays, many people choose toilets instead of traditional "squatting pits", but this method is actually not good for health. This is because today's toilet seats allow many people to use their convenient time to play games, read newspapers, smoke, etc. Sitting for a long time will create a closed space between the body and toxic substances. Over time, these toxic gases will cause hemorrhoids, anus inflammation, chronic vaginitis, and even gynecological tumors such as cervical cancer. Especially for those who like to smoke while going to the toilet, the harm is doubled.

Suggestion: Use squat toilets instead of toilets. It is best to go to the toilet quickly and easily, and do not prolong the time sitting on the toilet just for the sake of comfort and entertainment. This can minimize the contact time with toxic substances and is more beneficial to health.

Sit on a chair with a back less often.

Reason: The chair with a backrest is a common small piece of furniture nowadays, but with the emergence of the chair with a backrest, the chair without a backrest has been gradually forgotten. Our bodies are not designed to sit in regular straight-backed chairs. When standing or sitting in a backless chair, the abdominal muscles are at work, helping the spine support our weight. When you sit in a reclining chair, these muscles are relaxed and only the spine bears the weight of the entire upper body. The extra pressure is placed on the spinal disc, eventually leading to long-term back pain. A straight-back chair does not conform to body mechanics. If a person leans completely on a straight-back chair, his feet will naturally hang in the air, and the body will not get proper support. Over time, back pain and other conditions will occur.

Wait 10 minutes after a meal before brushing your teeth.

Incorrect habits: Brushing teeth after eating is a good habit, but some people can’t wait to brush their teeth right after a meal, some people remember to brush their teeth a long time after a meal, and some people even brush their teeth no matter what they eat. If you don't have the correct scientific knowledge, these brushing methods may be detrimental to your dental health.

Recommendation: Rinsing your mouth or brushing your teeth about 10 minutes after a meal can effectively reduce the chance of tooth decay. But there are exceptions. For example, after eating sour food, it is best to rinse your mouth with clean water immediately and brush your teeth carefully after half an hour. Because acidic substances can soften the enamel on the surface of teeth, if you brush your teeth immediately at this time, the mechanical friction of the toothbrush will damage the enamel, which will harm the health of the teeth.

The above-mentioned small details are indispensable in cultivating good living habits. If they are introduced in detail, there are many things to pay attention to, such as not having the habit of overeating, and not taking baths too short in winter to avoid dry skin, etc. These are all small details in life that need attention.
