Understanding sub-health is helpful to prevention and elimination

The World Health Organization defines health as “not only the absence of disease and weakness, but also the perfect state of physical, psychological and social adaptation.” The National Health Organization survey shows that the majority of people in “sub-health state” are middle-aged and elderly people, accounting for more than 45%, and the proportion is even higher among some people engaged in business management and business activities. This is mainly because of the acceleration of the pace of life and work, the increasingly fierce competition, and the increasing psychological endurance of people. In addition, car drivers, especially taxi drivers, have a higher proportion of people with sub-health status. The proportion of people in sub-health status among teenagers is relatively small. The high-risk group in this age group is students facing the high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination, which is mainly caused by excessive fatigue and mental tension.

definition of sub-health

The World Health Organization believes that health is a perfect state of body, spirit and communication, not just a physical absence of disease. According to this definition, through strict statistical statistics, less than 2 / 3 of the population are really healthy (the first state) and sick (the second state), and more than 1 / 3 of the population is in an excessive state between health and disease. The World Health Organization calls it the “third state”, which is often called the “sub-health” state in China. “Sub-health” is the critical point between health and disease, and it is also the signal sent by the body machine before the arrival of a serious disease. However, because the incubation period of sub-health is generally 8 to 10 years, coupled with people’s insufficient understanding of it, it is often ignored, which delays the best period of treatment.

sub healthy performance

The performance of sub-health is not only insomnia, but also psychological manifestation: low spirits, low mood, sluggish reaction, insomnia and dreams, daytime sleepiness, inattention, memory loss, irritability, anxiety, easy to panic, etc. Usually, they will be tired, weak, short of breath during activities, sweating, backache and leg pain.

causes of sub-health

One is the overdraft of energy and physical strength caused by excessive fatigue. Due to the increasingly fierce competition, people use their heart and brain excessively, and the main organs of the body are under abnormal load for a long time. Second, due to the self-aging of the human body, it shows lack of physical strength, lack of energy and reduced adaptability of the spirit. The third is the early stage of modern diseases (cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, tumors, etc.). Before the onset of the disease, the human body will not have organic lesions for a long time, but functional obstacles have occurred, such as short chest habits, dizziness, insomnia and forgetfulness. The fourth is the low tide period in the human biological cycle. Even healthy people will be in a sub-health state in a specific period of time, such as irritability, restlessness, emotional instability, and irritability shown by women before menstruation. Sub health also has an important relationship with dietary structure and living habits, such as decreased intake of vitamins, increased fat content, irregular life, and improper exercise and rest arrangements. In addition, smoking, drinking and environmental pollution are also important external factors.

diagnosis of sub-health

Sub health is often diagnosed clinically as fatigue syndrome, endocrine disorder, neurasthenia, etc. The specific psychological manifestations are: low spirit, low mood, slow reaction, insomnia and dreams, sleepiness during the day, lack of concentration, memory loss, irritability, anxiety, and easy to panic. Physiologically, it is manifested as fatigue, fatigue, short breath during activities, sweating, backache and leg pain. In addition, there may be cardiovascular diseases, such as palpitations and arrhythmias.

prevention and elimination of sub-health

The key to prevent and eliminate sub-health is to develop good living habits, combine work with rest, pay attention to exercise at ordinary times, and properly participate in some outdoor activities. The diet should be reasonable. The diet should be less salt and sugar, and should eat more foods with high protein, such as bean products. Eat more fresh vegetables, melons, fruits, fish and aquatic products, so as to supplement various nutrients, vitamins and trace elements necessary for the human body. At the same time, pay attention not to overeat or overeat. Overeating will cause digestive tract organic diseases; Partial eating can induce “sub-health” due to lack of certain nutrients.
