Why are you sick again during the Spring Festival! What you should know about "body changes" during holidays

 

But when he gets sick, he doesn't think it's easy for him to have a good rest after the new year's holiday! "




Why do you have weekend sickness


In the past, the concept of "weekend sickness" of getting sick and catching a cold once on holiday was thought to be a psychological effect. This concept was proposed by ad vingerhoets, a psychology professor at Tilburg University in the Netherlands. In a study in 2002, he investigated 1900 people by means of an autonomous questionnaire whether they were prone to get sick on weekends and holidays. About 60 of them had such a situation.




In later studies, it has gradually been found that weekend sickness is not just a psychological problem. Lin Lihan, a traditional Chinese medicine doctor at changshengtang Chinese medicine clinic, said that there are two reasons why people get sick easily during holidays. The first one is really related to relaxation, and the second is that you are not restrained during holidays. "You start to stay up late, eat and drink, and ice cream with chicken chops as soon as you have a holiday, which will certainly make you uncomfortable. "




When you relax during the holidays, you will feel the pain and fatigue of the original stress. Lin Lihan said that when you are under great pressure, your body will secrete adrenaline to "resist" so that you don't get sick. At this time, immunity will rise temporarily and resist infection. However, when you are under great pressure, the adrenal gland will also secrete cortisol, which can quickly generate energy, while cortisol will react with it It's a factor that reduces immunity.




Too high cortisol will lead to disordered regulation of the body's endocrine and reduce immunity. The longer the secretion lasts, the more immunity will drop. When relaxed, epinephrine will quickly return to the original standard, but it will take a relatively long time for cortisol to decline. The cross phase of these two endocrine systems will result in the continuous decline of immunity and the disease will naturally accumulate The pain comes out.




During the holiday, not only will be sick, but also may be psychologically uncomfortable!


In addition to reducing immunity, cortisol can also make mental state unstable, and even show negative emotions, such as anxiety, self blame, inferiority complex, irritability, depression, etc.; adrenaline, which is still at work at the beginning and is ready to travel, will make people feel excited, but after the cross period with cortisol, it will feel particularly depressed.




According to the American Psychological Association, most people are happy, full of love and interest during the festival, but after a few days of excitement, when the holiday is coming to an end, fatigue, stress, irritability and sadness will all come up.




Therefore, during the holiday, it is better to completely empty and relax in the first few days. Even if it is only 3-4 days of continuous vacation, you can not give yourself too much pressure and too much travel on the first day, let your body slowly adjust the endocrine disorder back, and then enjoy the time of going out for fun and being completely free, which will lead to a more efficient vacation.

Diabetes must lose weight! Fat and insulin resistance are cancer risk factors

  "I went back to the clinic today, and my blood sugar was well controlled! For diabetics, the happiest thing is to see that their blood sugar level is normal, and many people regard blood sugar control as their only goal. Of course, controlling blood sugar is very important, but after controlling blood sugar, many people may find that they are getting fatter and fatter, and the risk of cancer will increase. Why do you get diabetes and get fat As we all know, diabetes has a symptom of "rapid weight loss", but as the disease is controlled by medication, it will start to become fat again. It turns out that when the blood sugar is soaring, the body can't convert the blood sugar into the energy it needs through insulin, so it will choose to burn the protein and fat stored originally, resulting in becoming thinner; after the medication is controlled, the body can use the blood sugar smoothly and return to the state of storing fat. However, there is a problem when fat come...
