The relationship between appearance and longevity.
1, with a young face. Danish scientists have found that people who look younger than their actual age may live longer. Cal christensen, a professor at the University of Southern Denmark, led the research team to select 1826 pairs of twins over 70 years old and followed them up for seven years. Among the 675 people who have died, the research team comprehensively considered their actual age, gender, growth environment and other factors, and found that the greater the difference between a pair of twins, the greater the possibility of the older one dying first. Christensen said that if you want to know a person's life span, you can observe his face. Because people who have a hard life are more likely to die early, and the hardships of life are written on their faces.
2. Men are handsome. A handsome man is more attractive to women, which may also mean that he is healthy. Marcus Rantala, a scientist at Turku University in Finland, found that handsome men have stronger immunity and are less likely to catch a cold. Handsome appearance and perfect figure are signs that men have more antibodies, which also shows that their testosterone level is higher, which helps to improve immunity. However, the researchers said that women's beauty does not mean strong immunity, but it is closely related to fertility. This is because beautiful women have moderate body fat, low blood cortisol concentration and strong fertility.
3. There are many cockroaches on your body. Many people worry about their moles. A study led by Veronica Ba Taye, a dermatologist at King's College London, found that people with more moles are less likely to suffer from heart disease, osteoporosis and other diseases than their peers. Telomeres at the end of chromosomes can predict a person's life span to some extent. Studies have found that people with more than 100 moles have longer telomeres, which means they may live 6-7 years longer than people with less than 25 moles.
However, Long, director of plastic surgery at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, reminded that most people have dozens of moles all over their bodies. Once obvious swelling, uneven pigment, depilation, itching, bleeding and other phenomena appear in a short time, we should pay great attention to them. Moles that grow on the soles of feet, chest, neckline, belt and other parts are prone to malignant transformation because of frequent friction. It is recommended to carry out preventive resection when conditions permit.
4, the waist is thin. Researchers from Harvard University, Boston Hospital and other institutions in the United States studied the illness records and waistlines of 44,636 women, and found that women with waistlines over 89 cm had a 79% higher risk of premature death than women with waistlines less than 7 1 cm. Researchers believe that excessive waist fat accumulation will increase the risk of diabetes, stroke and heart disease. Even if the waist circumference is 89 cm, the risk of death from cardiovascular diseases is twice as high as that of women with a waist circumference of 7 1 cm. The World Cancer Research Foundation reported that every increase in waist circumference 1 inch increases the risk of cancer by eight times. Different races have different waistlines. Experts suggest that the waist circumference of women in China should be controlled within 80 cm, and that of men should be less than 85 cm.
5. There are few wrinkles on the inside of the big arm. 20 13 1 1 In an article published in the Journal of Gerontology, scientists from the Medical Center of Leiden University in Finland studied 260 women. In addition to analyzing the facial appearance, they also choose to observe the wrinkles on the inside of the big arm, because the inside of the big arm is less exposed, which can largely rule out the aging caused by sunlight. Studies have found that women with fewer wrinkles in their inner arms have lower blood pressure and lower chances of heart disease and stroke, so they may live longer than women with more wrinkles. In order to exclude cosmetic surgery, cosmetics and other factors, scientists have also studied men and women of some longevity families, which also confirmed this conclusion.
6. The ears are big and thick, and the eyebrows are long and thick. Yang Li told the reporter of Life Times that the kidney is the root of the five internal organs and the main bone hair. In the external manifestations of the body, the most prominent kidney is the ear. If a person's ears are ruddy and thick, their ears are wide, their hair is thick and dark, and their eyebrows are black and long, it shows that he is full of kidney qi and healthier to some extent. If a person's ears are small and atrophied, and his hair loss is serious, it means that kidney qi is insufficient, so special attention should be paid to tonifying kidney.
Yang Li said that "winter is suitable for kidney", and the key point in winter is to tonify kidney. Sleep is the best "medicine" for tonifying kidney. In addition, you should get more sunshine to avoid overwork and excessive sweating. You can eat more mutton, chestnuts, black beans and other foods appropriately to avoid eating cold things. At ordinary times, you can massage Shenshu point (waist eye, that is, under the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra, opening sideways 1.5 inch), Zusanli (3 inches below the outer knee) and Sanyinjiao (3 inches above the inner ankle).
7, the bridge of the nose is high, and the nose is shiny. In the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen is the second most important organ after the kidney. In a person's appearance, the organs that best embody the spleen are the nose and lips. Yang Li said that people with big noses, high noses, shiny oil and thick and ruddy lips generally have a relatively stable temper, a good appetite and a sweet meal. Pale lips and a dull nose indicate a bad temper.
"Chicken soup is the first soup in winter, which can strengthen the spleen and stimulate appetite," said Yang Li. You can also eat more root vegetables, such as yam, sweet potato, potato, white radish and so on. They grow in the soil, absorb the warmth of the land, and can warm up and strengthen the spleen. Some studies have also found that people's fear of cold is related to the lack of carbohydrates and inorganic salts in the body, and root vegetables can just make up for this.
8. Full forehead and slightly warped chin. "Heaven is complete and the land is Fiona Fang" is often used to describe that a person is blessed with happiness. In Yang Li's view, this is based on the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. This means: the forehead is full, the distance between the two eyebrows is relatively small, the mandible of the face is relatively developed, and the chin will lean forward slightly. If a person's Tang Yin is bright and moist, and his skin looks white and red, it means that this person has good heart and lung, abundant qi and blood and a long life. If you look yellow, pale, etc. , indicating that lung qi is insufficient.
The first viscera that cold air enters through the skin in winter is the lungs, so we must pay attention to changing clothes in time. Once you catch a cold, you should drink ginger soup, brown sugar and hot water in time to dispel the cold. Usually you can eat jujube, mulberry, lily and so on. Take a few deep breaths.
9. The occipital bone is full. In the human skeletal system, the skull is the most complex. The occipital bone is located in the lower part of the back of the head. Yang Li said that "Taiyizhao Nerve" wrote: "The occipital bone is not exposed alone, and the flesh and blood are flat, which means that those with full occipital bones are more likely to live longer." Seen from the whole head, the square face and the round top of the head indicate that the lung qi is sufficient and the possibility of longevity is high.
10, with thick hands and feet. Limbs can also reflect a person's physical condition, and then predict his life span. Yang Li said that people with thick, bright and shiny hands and feet have strong functions such as kidneys, spleen and stomach, relatively good physical foundation and strong resistance to diseases. People with tall and straight backs and broad and solid shoulders are also stronger than those who look fragile.
Finally, Yang Li reminded that the relationship between appearance and longevity is closely related to the sensitivity of various organs, such as the sense of smell of the nose, the taste of the mouth, the hearing of the ears and the air of the eyes. These sensitivities are also the embodiment of a person's vitality, and a good spirit will certainly bring about healthier and longer life. She repeatedly stressed that the relationship between looks and longevity is not absolute. People with longevity can only say that congenital development is relatively dominant. Whether a person's living habits are healthy and whether his body is properly maintained is often more important than congenital development.
