5 Morning Habits of People Who Live Healthy and Long Lives on July 21 (Sunday)!!

Warm morning water... good for waste elimination, metabolism, and vascular health

 

◆ The reason I never skip morning stretching

 

Those who enjoy a healthy lifespan almost never skip stretching immediately after waking up in the morning.

Massaging the entire body, such as the arms and legs, with your hands helps improve blood circulation and regulate blood pressure that has stagnated during sleep. In fact, it is similar to the health benefits of massage. To prevent injury, do not stretch vigorously; instead, do it slowly and gently. If you are middle-aged, doing the bridge pose by lifting your hips and lower back while in bed also has the effect of strengthening the thighs and hips.

 

◆ Drinking lukewarm water... Waste elimination, metabolism, vascular health

 

During 7 to 8 hours of sleep, the body's hydration supply is cut off. Nevertheless, water is constantly expelled through sweat, secretions, and other means. Drinking lukewarm water with less stimulation can help eliminate accumulated waste products in the body overnight and activate metabolism. Metabolism is the process of replacing old substances in the body with new ones. When there is a lack of water, the blood becomes sticky but still flows well. In the early morning, vascular diseases (such as stroke and heart disease) often worsen because the blood becomes sticky and can block blood vessels.

 

◆ Breakfast is a must!… A balanced diet rich in dietary fiber, protein, vitamins, and carbohydrates?

 

Breakfast provides the energy needed for morning activities. Students studying or office workers should also consume carbohydrates. Avoiding excessive carbohydrates for weight control can reduce the efficiency of brain activities and other tasks. The three essential nutrients are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. For example, vegetable-fruit salad (dietary fiber, vitamins), eggs (protein, fat), yogurt (calcium, protein), nuts (unsaturated fatty acids good for blood vessels), whole wheat bread (carbohydrates, unsaturated fatty acids), etc.

 

A cup or half a cup of black coffee... helps with concentration and bowel movements.

 

The effects of coffee are still a subject of debate, but if you do not have gastritis or stomach ulcers, drinking a cup or half a cup of black coffee can help with concentration and bowel movements. If your stomach is somewhat filled with breakfast, the caffeine in coffee does not significantly harm the stomach lining. Chlorogenic acid in coffee and gastrin secreted in the body stimulate the intestines, prompting you to go to the bathroom. For a healthy lifespan, regular and comfortable bowel movements are also very important.

 

◆ Move your body diligently... work, walk, climb uphill, etc.

 

Those who enjoy a healthy lifespan adhere to the rule "Eat and then move." They do not lie down or sit on the sofa watching TV all morning after eating. They diligently keep their bodies moving, whether through household chores, walking, or even climbing uphill slopes in their neighborhood to improve leg strength. Many of our grandmothers, despite being far from gym workouts their entire lives, enjoy a healthy lifespan. All of them are diligent in keeping their bodies active.
