Japan is considered a country of centenarians. The average life expectancy there is about 84 years. The Japanese keep track of their daily habits and diet. They rarely eat fatty, spicy foods, preferring lean foods. After all, the use of such junk food can affect the work of internal organs, and in general does not bring health benefits.
According to experts, people who eat a balanced diet and have good habits will receive good health and long life in return. In the ranking of the principles of longevity, the Japanese put sports only in third place. And in the first place was something that very few people guess. And we, in principle, often ignore this issue.
1. Ensuring adequate sleep. In a dream, human organs can relax. If we do not sleep enough time, then this leads to a malfunction in the work of internal organs and to a decrease in the rate of blood circulation. So, metabolism and excretory functions are disrupted, which leads to clogging of the body, the accumulation of toxins. Immunity decreases, and as a result, health is undermined.
2. Balanced diet. A light and nutritious diet consisting of vegetables, meat and soy is important. First of all, you need to adhere to the principle of three meals a day, eat less spicy and fatty foods. Eating a lot of junk food affects blood viscosity, and your metabolism will not thank you for that. By eating right, you not only help your body absorb healthy nutrients, but you can also improve your overall health.
3. Daily activity. Sport promotes proper blood circulation, speeds up metabolism, thereby increasing work capacity. So harmful toxins are removed from the body and their accumulation decreases, the load on the internal organs decreases. Sports activities also stimulate brain activity and improve mood. If you exercise regularly every day, it will not only help digestion, but also increase immunity. This strengthens the general condition.
4. A positive outlook on life. Optimism is good for your health and well-being. According to statistics, over 80% of older people are in good spirits, enjoy life and have many friends. If you are constantly in an agitated state, then this will lead to endocrine dyscrasia and a decrease in insulin secretion. And this again harms the internal organs. Constant stress destroys health, while positive emotions, on the contrary, strengthen it.
