Office workers should prevent abdominal obesity! Wu Mingzhu's push and lift move...

Office workers who sit for long periods of time should be careful about abdominal obesity, which can cause health risks. Chinese medicine practitioners pointed out that many office workers in China have irregular meals, many social engagements, and little exercise, which can easily lead to early weight gain in middle age and a big belly. Chinese medicine believes that the key to abdominal obesity lies in the spleen and stomach, and recommends simply lifting your legs after meals to "nourish the spleen" and stay away from abdominal obesity.

Chinese medicine practitioner Wu Mingzhu pointed out that abdominal obesity is a health concern for many office workers. According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, the waist circumference of men should be less than 90 cm and that of women should be less than 80 cm. Anything above that is considered obesity. However, you will often find that no matter how hard you exercise, it is still difficult to get rid of the fat around your waist, and it is also difficult to refuse delicious food.

Abdominal obesity is a hidden killer of health

In particular, research statistics show that men with "beer bellies" are eight times more likely to suffer from high blood pressure than men of normal body shape, five times more likely to suffer from coronary heart disease, and seven times more likely to suffer from diabetes. If we stop paying attention to abdominal obesity, "beer belly" may become the most dangerous killer of our health.

In order to avoid abdominal obesity, in addition to getting up and moving more often, it is also important to develop the habit of chewing food slowly. This is because the chewing process of food can promote the secretion of saliva, which contains ingredients that help digestion. The longer you chew, the more saliva you secrete, which can help the spleen and stomach carry out their work of transportation and absorption of nutrients faster.

Abdominal obesity is a health concern for many office workers, most of whom are middle-aged men.

Drink more water at work to avoid beer belly

Chinese medicine practitioner Wu Mingzhu emphasized that if you want to be active, you have to move. Office workers should avoid abdominal obesity. She suggested that in terms of diet, three meals should be eaten on time, and only eat until 70% full at each meal. If you feel greedy, you can choose low-fat, low-calorie snacks or treats, such as fruits, vegetables, konjac, etc. And drink at least 2000cc of water every day to increase satiety.

Office workers can avoid abdominal obesity by using these 4 tips to stay away from beer belly.

• 1. When you are standing still, hug your elbows with your hands, stand with your legs together, and contract your lower abdomen.

• 2. Take the elevator less often and walk upstairs. If you can, try to get 30 minutes of exercise every day.

• 3. Try to stand for anything that can be done while standing, such as waiting for someone, making a phone call, reading a newspaper, etc.

• 4. Occasionally stand on tiptoe to put the body in a more tense state, which helps to contract the abdominal muscles.

The secret recipe for keeping healthy by taking a walk and lifting your feet after a meal

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, after a meal, the spleen and stomach need a lot of blood and energy to carry out digestion and absorption. Therefore, you must not engage in strenuous exercise at this time. However, if you often sit still after a meal, the spleen will be weak for a long time, and the transportation and transformation work will not be done well, and fat will begin to accumulate.

In addition, you can develop a habit of taking a walk after meals. If you are an office worker, it is recommended to do more leg-lifting exercises, alternating left and right 20 times. This can strengthen the spleen meridian and reduce abdominal fat accumulation. It not only helps you develop a good temper, but also prevents you from gaining weight. It is a very good health secret recipe for eliminating abdominal obesity.
