longevity has always been the goal and dream of mankind. From ancient times to the present, almost none of all living beings do not want to live a long life. So how can we prolong our life? Forming the habit of six three minutes can help prolong life.
1. Brush your teeth for 3 minutes
Dentists advocate brushing teeth three times a day, half an hour after meals, and more than three minutes each time, so as to keep teeth clean.
According to the stomatologist, this brushing method is always advocated by us. In fact, each of our teeth has five faces. The two adjacent faces between the teeth are often ignored. Usually, we mainly brush the outer, inner and occlusal faces. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to brush your teeth for more than 3 minutes.
In addition, it is best to brush your teeth within half an hour after meals to avoid bacteria deposition on the surface of your teeth and prevent dental caries. Rinse with water at other times.
2. Eat hot and drink cold with an interval of 3 minutes
On a cold winter day, it is undoubtedly a great pleasure for relatives and friends to sit around and eat hot pot. In the meantime, it will be more “energetic” to have another cold drink. However, this may cause “strong protests” from the intestines and stomach and blood pressure.
After eating hot dishes, the gastrointestinal system expands, and people immediately drink a lot of cold drinks. It is difficult to adapt to the sudden stimulation of cold drinks on the warm stomach, which will inevitably lead to a series of adverse reactions. At this time, the blood vessels will contract rapidly and the secretion of gastric juice will change, which is not only bad for digestion, but also the dilated blood vessels will contract sharply, which will lead to increased blood pressure, dizziness, nausea and other symptoms, which is very dangerous for hypertensive patients.
Therefore, it is better not to eat food with strong temperature contrast in a short time. Even if you want to drink a cold drink to quench your thirst after eating hot food, you should interval it for more than 3 minutes, so as to reduce the stimulation to the stomach.
3. Stay in bed for 3 minutes after waking up
Statistics show that many cases of stroke and sudden death come from getting up in the morning, which is called the “devil’s time” of the day.
In the morning, the human body loses water all night, and there is no time to replenish it. The blood viscosity reaches the highest. Once the human body is cold and the blood vessels contract, it is easy to cause acute cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Experts suggest that you should not get up in a hurry after waking up, but lie in bed for a while before getting up, so that at least 50% of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular patients can be prevented from accidents.
4. Abdominal breathing for 3 minutes
Health scientists have found that at least half of people do not breathe correctly. In the fresh air, they should do abdominal breathing for at least 3 minutes every day. Has it never occurred to you that we don’t know the right way to breathe?
The correct breathing method is: when you inhale, the deeper the air, the better. At this time, the diaphragm descends, squeezing the organs below, and the stomach will expand, not the chest. When exhaling, the muscles relax. At this time, the diaphragm will rise more than usual, and you can breathe deeply and spit out the carbon dioxide stagnated at the bottom of the lungs.
In fact, mammals all use abdominal breathing. In the fetus and infancy, humans also mainly use abdominal breathing. Since learning to walk, they have changed to local chest breathing. Studies have proved that abdominal breathing can give full play to the functions of heart and lung cells, increase lung capacity and strengthen heart function. Due to the regular increase and decrease of abdominal pressure, the internal organs of the abdomen are more active, which improves the blood circulation of the digestive tract, promotes the digestive and absorption functions of the digestive tract, promotes intestinal peristalsis, prevents constipation, and accelerates the discharge of toxins. Abdominal breathing can be done only by consciously changing the breathing mode, which is very simple and easy. If you can persist for a long time, you can also eliminate abdominal fat and improve abdominal blood circulation, which is very beneficial to your health.
5. Make tea for 3 minutes
Everyone can drink tea, but brewing may not be proper. To make a good pot of tea, you should master the tea making time. If the time is too short, the tea soup will be dull and tasteless. If it is too long, the soup will be thick, dark, fragrant and thin. The water temperature for making tea is 90 ℃. When making tea, the extracts of tea are vitamins, amino acids and caffeine in turn, and 3 minutes is the best. After a long time, polyphenols will leach out and make the tea soup bitter and astringent, which is not conducive to health.
6. Angry for no more than 3 minutes
Alma, an American physiologist, found that the physiological response to anger is very intense, so it is difficult for angry people to live long. When people are angry, their blood pressure instantly rises to a high level. People with poor health, especially the elderly, are prone to cerebral hemorrhage, heart disease and myocardial infarction. Therefore, anger should not exceed 3 minutes. Even if there is anger, it should come and go quickly, vent as soon as possible, and try to maintain emotional stability.
