10 bad habits threaten men's health, men should pay enough attention to them

Men, do you know what hidden "invisible killers" are lurking around you that threaten men's health? Shouldn't it be time to pay attention to them? Do you have problems such as poor eyesight, alcoholism, staying up late, etc.? Men should pay enough attention to men's health.

1. Nervous

A 10-year study of 4,000 people from various professions confirmed that heart disease mainly comes from emotional tension. Experts believe that "when a person lives in tension all day, he or she is more likely to suffer from hypertension." There are two main types of tension that people encounter: environmental and psychological. Developing good interpersonal relationships can eliminate unnecessary worries. Dealing with tension is wise thinking and biological feedback.

2. Smoking

Long-term smokers have a 10-20 times higher incidence of lung cancer, a 6-10 times higher incidence of laryngeal cancer, and a 2-3 times higher incidence of coronary heart disease than non-smokers. The incidence of circulatory system diseases is 3 times higher, and the incidence of bronchitis is 2-8 times higher. Smoking can deform sperm and damage its DNA, which will cause premature birth and birth defects. Some studies have found that children born to smoking men have a higher risk of cancer. Smoking also reduces sperm count and reduces blood flow to the penis, thereby causing impotence. Subfertility problems are more common among smokers.

3. Alcoholism

Excessive drinking will definitely damage the liver. The liver is the most important detoxification organ in the human body, and it is also the organ that synthesizes bile and stores glycogen. Excessive drinking will cause fatty liver, which will inevitably lead to digestion and absorption disorders and decreased immune function, which will reduce the body's resistance to various diseases and seriously affect men's health. Excessive drinking can damage the brain, causing a decline in memory, IQ and judgment.

4. Staying up late

Staying up late greatly reduces sleep time, and the brain and organs cannot get rest and adjustment, which brings serious harm to health. Sleep is the most important way for the human body to rest and relieve fatigue of various organ systems. Scientists have proposed that long-term lack of sleep will cause weakened judgment, slow thinking, poor coordination function, and easily lead to various accidents and personal injuries. From the perspective of psychological medicine, the consequences of lack of sleep are quite serious. It can cause mental fatigue, adverse changes in emotions, and abnormal behavior, causing anxiety, depression, irritability and other emotional reactions. What's more serious is that some people may develop dual personality and even induce mental illness. Long-term lack of sleep can directly cause physical damage, resulting in loss of appetite, indigestion, decreased immune function, and inducing or aggravating insomnia, neurosis, ulcer disease, hypertension, diabetes, cerebrovascular disease, etc. Therefore, long-term lack of sleep is not just a matter of lack of sleep, but an important problem that can cause many diseases. In summary, whether it is nightlife or night work, it should be done in moderation. Staying up late often will definitely bring adverse consequences to health.

5. Excessive or lack of exercise

Many doctors unanimously recommend moderate exercise. Some people start exercising after the age of 50. If they do not exercise properly, they may suffer from certain diseases. Experts suggest that the best exercise is to wear a pair of comfortable shoes and walk outdoors for half an hour. This can strengthen your muscles, speed up your heartbeat, and make your breathing smoother. Of course, if you lack proper exercise, it can easily cause many diseases, such as chronic diseases, shortness of breath, obesity, indigestion, headaches, back pain, anxiety, muscle weakness and atrophy, and accelerate aging.

6. Don’t shed tears easily

People cry when they are in pain. From a psychological point of view, it is a natural protective measure for people. If you don't cry when you should, but force yourself to swallow your tears, the depressed energy in your heart will have no way to be vented, and it will accumulate and cause illness. Crying is a kind of catharsis, which will make you feel more relaxed and relieved psychologically, and you will get some comfort. Psychologists believe that not crying when you are sad is harmful to human health and is equivalent to chronic suicide. Surveys have found that people who do not cry for a long time have a disease rate twice as high as those who cry. Most male patients with gastric ulcers and schizophrenia are those who force themselves not to cry. If they cry when they should, they are likely to avoid these diseases. Crying is a good exercise for newborns. When crying, the newborn baby's whole body exercise helps blood circulation, digestion and excretion, and promotes the growth of the newborn baby. It seems that appropriate crying is good for the human body.

7. Excessive dieting or vegetarianism

All popular weight loss diets are potentially harmful to health if used for too long, because most diets and vegetarian diets will reduce the nutrients that the diet should contain. Excessive dieting, due to the reduction in energy supply, leads to the consumption of fat reserves deposited in the tissues, and cholesterol is removed from the fat reserves and enters the bile, causing the concentration of cholesterol in the bile to surge, and the bile becomes viscous, precipitating crystals and settling down, which can easily induce gallstones. Secondly, excessive dieting or vegetarianism results in a lack of nutrients in the body, which causes more serious damage to brain cells, and directly affects memory and intelligence. The longer a person diets and the more weight they lose, the greater the loss of memory. In addition, the main component of hair is a protein called keratin, and zinc, iron, etc. are also essential trace elements for hair growth. Excessive dieting or vegetarianism leads to insufficient intake of protein and trace elements, causing hair to fall out due to severe malnutrition.

9. Overeating

Overeating is the main cause of obesity and many diseases, including hypertension, diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Overeating is harmful and can lead to acute gastritis, gastric mucosal laceration, gastric bleeding, gastric mucosal prolapse, and can cause laceration of the gastric annulus when the gastric cavity pressure is too high or vomiting occurs. In severe cases, it can even cause acute gastric dilatation. For those who already have chronic cholecystitis, chronic gallstones, and pancreatitis, it can induce recurrence, all of which are directly related to excessive eating.

10. Drug Abuse

Drug abuse refers to the improper and unreasonable use of chemicals, which results in "suicide" and accidental poisoning. At present, a bad trend in drug use is that many healthy people rely on pills to solve their various problems. Most drugs have some toxic side effects to a greater or lesser extent, especially when used for a long time or in large doses, which can easily cause toxic and side effects in patients, and even cause death. Male drug abuse can also harm the fetus. Some drugs enter the mother's body through semen and then affect the growth and development of the fertilized egg, embryo or fetus through the mother's blood circulation. Modern medicine has proven that low birth weight, increased mortality, and various deformities of newborns are inseparable from the use of certain "dangerous drugs" by men.

Men: You may have some of the above situations. No matter which ones you have, it is time for you to pay attention to men's health. Only with careful care on a daily basis can you maintain a healthy body.
