On June 30th, the Daily Mail of England published an expert review article summarizing "13 ways for men to live longer".
1. Don't put your wallet behind your butt. If you frequently drive or work at your desk, it can easily lead to lower back pain. Physical therapy experts refer to it as' wallet neurosis'. Wallets can compress the sciatic nerve in the back, causing pain or numbness in the calves and ankles.
2. Reduce the use of painkillers. A new study involving 16000 men from Harvard Medical School found that daily use of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen increased the risk of hypertension by 38%.
3. Have regular sexual activity. A new study in Australia shows that if a man has sex every day in the week before ovulation, it can improve sperm quality and increase the pregnancy rate of his wife.
4. Tooth protection can prevent baldness. Scientists at the University of Granada in Spain have found that baldness is not only related to genetics and stress, but also closely related to dental disease. Therefore, patients with baldness should seek medical attention from a dentist.
5. Marry a young wife. A new study by the Max Planck Institute in Germany found that wives are 9-11 years younger than husbands, and the risk of early death for husbands is reduced by 11%.
6. Strengthen pelvic floor muscle training. It can effectively exercise bladder and penile function, thereby preventing erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence.
7. Strive for promotion. A survey in the UK found that the mortality rate of the lowest ranking civil servant is three times higher than that of the highest ranking civil servant. The lack of control in work may be a major reason.
8. Eat apples every day. Men over 50 are more likely to develop colon cancer than women. The British charity 'Fight against Colon Cancer' recommends consuming 18 grams of fiber per day. One banana contains 1.8 grams of cellulose, and one apple (with skin) contains 4 grams of cellulose, making it the most convenient choice.
9. Eat less meat. The latest study from Pennsylvania State University in the United States shows that eating less meat can reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease, helping to maintain male masculinity.
10. Don't let your wife work. A study by Queen Mary College School of Medicine at the University of London found that the shorter a wife's working hours, the less depressed a man is.
11. Brush your teeth with your back hand. Brushing teeth or holding a cup with one hand that is not frequently used can help the brain generate new memory cells, thereby preventing Alzheimer's disease.
12. Reduce cholesterol. Urology experts from Temple University School of Medicine suggest that quitting smoking, losing weight and lowering cholesterol can promote blood circulation and improve the quality of sexual life.
13. Sunshine for 10 minutes every day. A lack of vitamin D in men can lead to problems such as hair loss, low libido, muscle weakness, and joint pain. Sunshine for 10-15 minutes a day can prevent vitamin D deficiency.
