Recently, there is a saying circulating on the Internet: the more housework the elderly do, the shorter their lifespan. At first glance, it sounds scary, but if you think about it carefully, Aunt Zhang next door wipes the floor three times a day, and Uncle Li tinkers with it every day, and her body is tougher than Uncle Wang, who lies on the sofa every day. What is the truth? In fact, the key is not whether to do housework, but how to do it.

1. The floor does not have to be wiped three times a day

I have seen many old people mopping the floor as fitness, and wiping it several times a day. The floor was bright, but the knees were hurt. Kneeling to wipe the floor hurts the meniscus the most, and repeated bending may induce lumbar disc herniation. It is advisable to use a long-handled mop instead, keeping your back straight, once a day is sufficient. Remember, your home is not a sterile operating room, and a little dust can exercise your immune system.

Second, don't rush to empty the leftovers

The older generation is used to frugality, and seeing leftovers is like seeing enemies. But when the temperature rises in spring, overnight dishes are more likely to grow bacteria. Especially in leafy greens and seafood, repeated heating not only loses nutrients, but also increases nitrite content. It is best to eat the meals of the day as soon as they are eaten, and the meat that cannot be eaten should be refrigerated for more than 24 hours.

3. Health care products cannot be eaten as meals

The bottles and cans that children buy with filial piety, many elderly people are afraid of wasting and eat them on time. In fact, excessive multivitamins and calcium tablets may increase the burden on the liver and kidneys. After the age of 2, the metabolism slows down, and the health care products should be separated from the main meal for 0 hours, and the water can be better absorbed. Remember, medicine is not as good as food, and the toons and spring shoots in season are more real than any imported capsules.

Fourth, don't take care of your grandchildren's affairs

Picking up and dropping off children, helping with homework, feeding and sleeping... Many elderly people are busier with babies than they are at work. But taking grandchildren is not a rehired job, and it is better for the whole family to be "lazy" appropriately. Allowing children to carry their own bags can prevent hunchbacks, and allowing them to be picky eaters can develop eating habits. Intergenerational parenting is most afraid of "offside", the child's parents are in charge, let's just hand over a fruit.

Advice for life after age 60

1. Do heavy work in a scattered manner, and do not concentrate on the peak period of blood pressure in the morning

10. Use a trolley to buy groceries, and don't exceed 0% of your body weight at a time.

3. Half a day a week to completely relax, and it is also a serious thing to bask in the sun in a daze

4. Learn to use your smartphone to make an appointment for housekeeping services, and leave professional matters to professional people

Age is never a shackle to life, but a medal of wisdom. Those proven health experiences are worth passing on, but you don't have to live yourself as a "humanoid robot vacuum". Spring is coming, the quilt that should be dried must be dried, and the rag that should be put down must also be put down. After all, children want energetic parents more than a spotless home.
