Introduction: The Lancet has published a new study saying that the average life expectancy in China is much longer, an average of 8 1/2 years longer than it was in 1990, according to the Wall Street Journal website on Oct. 27. The decrease and decline in infectious diseases, dysentery, and infant mortality are responsible for the delay in premature deaths. In Tianjin and Beijing, two major cities, the mortality rate has declined and life expectancy has increased. the highest average life expectancy of the Chinese population in 2013 was in Shanghai, where the average life expectancy was 80.2 years for men and 85.2 years for women, an improvement of about six years from 1990, on par with Japan and France, the two countries with the highest average life expectancy in the world today. Now that material conditions are becoming more abundant, who wouldn’t want to live longer? However, as life expectancy increases, many non-communicable chronic diseases are receiving increasing attention from society. Living longer ≠ quality of life Many friends are plagued by various chronic diseases, resulting in a sharp decline in quality of life. Some patients complain that it is really a sin to have more diseases. Using obesity as an example, obesity can cause hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, diabetes, coronary heart disease, arthritis, and aggravate polycystic ovary syndrome. Obesity is the source of all diseases, so many people are struggling with their weight. I have a weight loss patient who has tried many methods and taken many drugs because he wanted to lose weight, but in the end his weight was still uncontrollable. When he came to me, he was already suffering from uremia and needed regular dialysis. At that time, I really felt sorry for him. As the old saying goes, “medicine is poisonous in three parts”, I guessed that it was likely that his kidneys were irreversibly damaged due to blind medication. Many people consult me privately about reliable weight loss pills, but there are so many different kinds of weight loss pills on the market that it is impossible to understand them. And it is not recommended that you take diet pills, because many drugs require long-term clinical trials to truly understand its side effects. I would prefer that we control our weight by “keeping our mouths shut and our legs open” little by little. Weight loss surgery, in fact, is also a kind of help The weight of people who are simply obese is eaten out one bite at a time. Enjoy, lazy want to reduce weight, also need to pay a little “price”. Either you need to suffer a little more exercise, to keep your mouth shut to resist the temptation of food. Many post-operative patients tell pre-operative patients, “What you want to eat hurry up and eat, or eat two bites after the surgery will be full.” Of course, not being able to enjoy food is kind of a cost. Reducing the volume of the stomach through surgery will effectively control a patient’s weight over a period of years. It helps patients who often regain weight to lose it successfully. The procedure does not affect the patient’s digestive function, but if good eating habits are not developed in the time after surgery, the weight will still regain. Medical treatment has a certain lag, and obese people cannot wait until diabetes and hypertension arrive unannounced to discover the importance of weight loss. Some diseases are curable, but others (e.g., diabetes) can cause irreversible damage to the body. Don’t wait until the disease is looking for someone before you realize that you need to cure it. At the same time, it is not recommended that people blindly lose weight and take drugs, weight loss is for health, if you eat bad body, is not the cart before the horse, the loss is not worth the gain? I believe that medical development is getting better and better, life expectancy will increase, health is the most important! Remember the conservation of energy, “keep your mouth shut, open your legs” to be healthy and healthy to drop weight.
