Never stopping:
Doing more housework is never a bad thing.
In most families, men do significantly less housework than women. Many men sit on the sofa watching TV after meals, while women are primarily responsible for washing dishes and doing housework.
Don't underestimate this small factor. In fact, housework can make women's blood and qi flow smoothly, making them healthier. On the other hand, men sitting on the sofa may seem to be enjoying themselves, but in reality, their blood and qi stagnate, which has a very bad effect on their health.
We have observed some centenarians and found that one important characteristic they have is that they like to do housework, and even after they are 100 years old, they still insist on doing housework themselves.
This world is a strange place. Some things that seem like "enjoying life" are actually not good things. On the other hand, some things that seem like "serving others" or "taking a loss" actually contain happiness.
Don't be stubborn:
If you're sick, go see a doctor; don't tough it out.
Compared to women, men generally focus more on their careers and tend to be more tolerant of their physical needs.
The survey found that nearly half of men buy medicine haphazardly when they are sick, and one-third of men completely ignore "minor ailments." 80% of male patients with serious illnesses admitted that minor illnesses developed into major ones because they did not seek medical attention for a long time.
Women are different. Women pay great attention to their health. If there is a problem, they will take action to solve it. Some people may have many minor problems and seem to be constantly adjusting, but they are all minor problems, so their bodies do not develop major problems. Some men who can tolerate this, however, will develop major problems as soon as they do.
I've been giving health lectures in various places for many years, and I've noticed that the vast majority of attendees are women. This clearly demonstrates that women place greater emphasis on health and wellness. In this respect, men need to learn from women!
Not repressive:
Speak out if you have grievances, don't bottle them up.
Men are taught from a young age not to shed tears easily, so they rarely confide in friends when facing pressure; while women, when frustrated, usually find a close friend to confide their troubles, which greatly reduces their stress.
Such venting can garner sympathy and support from friends, which is crucial for health. Foreign scholars have evaluated female patients undergoing breast cancer treatment. The results showed that patients who met weekly for discussion and received group support had an average survival time twice that of those without such support. Therefore, healthy individuals may be those who can find comfort in a group and open their hearts to others to relieve stress.
Don't underestimate the power of long phone conversations and nagging; these might be the secrets to their health and longevity!
No indulgence:
Emphasis on balance and moderation
Compared to women, men tend to have more desires, such as a strong pursuit of career advancement. This leads men to put in more effort, and working overtime late into the night seems quite normal. Women's desires are much more subdued, and their interests often lie primarily in family life, which means they experience fewer major life challenges.
In addition, men are more likely to pursue sensual gratification, such as smoking and excessive drinking, which can harm their health. In contrast, there are far fewer female addicts.
In addition, men tend to have a greater sexual desire than women. In modern society, many women stay at home, take care of children, look after the elderly, and do housework, while men use career advancement as an excuse to indulge in nightlife, which is also a significant reason for the depletion of their vital energy.
do not give up:
Resilience in the face of illness
I have seen many patients with geriatric phobias (extreme fear of illness and death), and they are almost all men. This is the exact opposite of what we usually see; we often think of men as strong and women as weak.
Studies show that women's sense of responsibility plays a role; within the family, women play a crucial role in maintaining the household and raising children. Therefore, after becoming ill, she felt, "My family still needs me, my children need me, I must live!"
I remember when my younger sister was diagnosed with chronic nephritis, my mother cried bitterly, feeling that fate was so unfair. I was worried that she would break down, but after only one day, my mother immediately cheered up and said, "No, I have to take care of my daughter." So, she urged my sister to take her medicine, personally adjusted her diet, and gave her emotional support. Soon, my sister recovered.
In life, we often see elderly women who have overcome countless hardships, and the reason lies in their strong will. Their responsibilities to their families, especially their children, often unleash powerful motivation. Therefore, women tend to have a more positive attitude and possess far greater resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity.
If men want to be healthy, they really should learn the secrets of health from their loving wives.
