1, about 40% of men can't tell their age at 25-50. That's why some people mistakenly think that father and son are brothers. Some men are even 60 or older.

So, what about the remaining 60%? One is bald, in his thirties to fifties, and all the thanks are due. 10%. Second, most of the hair is white, and it can rise and fall by 5% before the age of 50. Third, he is too fat and has a big belly, so he can't move freely. He must be old. 10%. Fourth, due to poor working conditions, overwork and wrinkles, accounting for about 20%. Fifth, premature disability or illness, including heavy smoking and drinking. 10%.

2. How to predict? I have the following experience:

(1), because heredity accounts for a large proportion, so we can focus on his father and grandfather, taking into account his mother, uncle, aunt and grandparents.

(2), because of the great relationship with the profession, you can refer to the main image of the group in its industry.

3. How to protect yourself? We can strive for improvement from bit by bit in our daily production and life.

For example, the ecological and nutritional collocation of eating habits.

Another example is the moderation of men's and women's lives. Some people lose their money because of overload and indulgence in their thirties. There is only a fragile shell left. Some are still in their sixties and seventies.

Another example is labor protection. Anti-virus, anti-danger, anti-waist injury and so on.

Another example is the family environment, work environment, popularity environment and so on.

Another example is the adjustment of self-mentality, contentment is not a slogan, making more young men and women friends is not hooliganism, and accepting correct new things and new ideas in time.

4. Others

(1), I remember when I was in college, college students all over the country put forward a slogan: "Serve our country for 50 years". It is not easy to realize this slogan. We will be 20-27 years old when we graduate, which means we will work until we are 70-77 years old. In other words, you have to live to be 80. Then, for example, when we worked for 37 years, it had fallen by 10% (four died and three or four were too sick to work). There are still 13 years left. Of course, some of us have worked for 60 years.

(2) If a person can be recognized by classmates and friends whom he hasn't seen for decades, he will often be confused with his sons and nephews like the next generation at the class reunion. He is still active in his seventies and eighties and busy at the age of eighty. So, is he a winner in previous lives? !

Spread out completely

There is not much difference in the appearance of young men in their twenties. Most of them are thin, with clear lines on their faces and firm and smooth skin. However, when people reach middle age, they gradually present a completely different landscape. Some people enter the ranks of greasy uncles ahead of time, while others are still young.

Nevertheless, most people will walk on the journey of life at the same pace of aging, so we can infer a person's approximate age from his appearance. Aging comes quietly, and when we find it, we are already covered in vicissitudes. For men, in which year did aging happen rapidly, and in which year did it bring about earth-shaking changes?

What is aging?

Aging is what we often call "aging", which is a gradual, complex and systemic irreversible degradation of structural and physiological functions.

Aging, just wrinkles? No, it includes many aspects. In addition to the external manifestations such as withered hair, wrinkled skin, loose teeth and obesity, the decline of strength and endurance, poor coordination and sensitivity will make people feel tired and slow to move. In addition, various organs of the body are also experiencing the process of "aging", such as the decrease of myocardial cells, the thickening of myocardial membrane, the increase of vascular wall hardness, the thinning and elasticity of alveolar wall, and the decrease of the number of nerve cells and brain cells.

When did the aging of men begin?

In the "ancient innocence" in Huangdi Neijing, it is said like this:

"Husband ... 48, muscular and muscular. 58, kidney qi failure, tooth loss. Sixty-eight-year-old, yang failure in the upper body, burning face, white hair. Seven or eight, liver qi aging, muscles can not move. Eight or eight, the sky is exhausted, the essence is less, the kidney fails, and the body is excellent, then the teeth are hair. "

As can be seen from this description, Neijing thinks that men are around 32 years old (48 years old), with the strongest bones and muscles and the best body, reaching the peak. From the age of forty (May 8), because the kidney qi began to decline, hair loss and loose teeth all began, which is the beginning of men's aging.

Observing all kinds of men in real life is roughly the same as that described in Neijing. As long as life is not very indulgent, you can still be 20 years younger at the age of 30, but at the age of 40, most men will be classified as middle-aged uncles anyway.

There are also some aging tables of human organs circulating on the Internet, some of which are extracted by Yu Hangjun as follows:

Lung. Lung function began to weaken at the age of 20. If you don't take part in physical exercise, climbing stairs or running at the age of 40 will generally make a middle-aged man breathless.

Brain. Brain cells will also decrease from around the age of 20, and by the age of 40, about 654.38+0 million brain cells will be lost every day, so middle-aged people will begin to forget and their memory will be worse than before.

Fertility. When a man reaches the age of 40, due to the decline in sperm quality, his fertility will be greatly reduced. This corresponds to the theory of "five-eighth, kidney qi failure" in Neijing.

Heart. The condition of the heart will be better, and it will begin to age around 50 years old, which is characterized by the decrease of blood transfusion efficiency and the decrease of blood vessel wall elasticity.

Other organs. Eyes and teeth begin to age at 45, intestines begin to age around 55, and liver begins to age around 70.

Based on the above, we can see that the age node of male aging is about 40 years old, which is equivalent to the dividing line between youth and aging. However, this is only a summary of common phenomena, which does not mean that every man will have obvious physical changes when he is "40 years old". Because everyone's lifestyle and genetic factors will seriously affect the aging process. Because of this, the Yellow Emperor and Qi Bo will continue to have such a question and answer in On Ancient Innocence:

The emperor said: A Taoist priest is over 100 years old. Can he have children?

Qi Bo said: "People with virtue can be old and tangible, and they can have children even when they are old." .

It means that as long as you are good at keeping in good health, you can stay healthy, delay aging and have good fertility even when you are old.

The aging road of modern white-collar men's appearance

"Fat middle-aged" is a popular hot word on the Internet in recent years, which roughly means that middle-aged men are fat and sophisticated. In fact, the obese body of middle-aged men is the most important basis of the word "greasy middle age". Among the expressions of "greasy middle-aged" listed on the Internet, expressions about body shape occupy a considerable part, including fat head, big belly, baldness, oily face and so on.

However, from young white-collar workers to greasy middle-aged, it is not a one-off event. Let's see how this evolved:

Graduated from college at the age of 22 and entered social work. This is the first time node, and men have changed from a lot of exercise to little exercise at school. Nevertheless, by the age of 25, most young male white-collar workers can still maintain their youthful appearance and slim figure. Until the age of 30, although the appearance will change, on the whole, it still belongs to a young state. However, a considerable number of men began to gain weight because of overeating and lack of exercise. By the age of 27 or 8, the belly is small and the body fat rate is high.

Most men get married around the age of 30. Because the aging process of the body will accelerate after the age of 30, many organs begin to join the ranks of aging. However, lack of exercise, overeating, excessive calorie intake and lifestyle disorder have become the norm for most middle-aged men, and getting fat is inevitable. At this time, the glory of youth began to fade from the faces of many men, and the image of "greasy middle age" began to appear. By the time they are less than 35 years old, many middle-aged men are really little or big fat.

At the age of 40, if you go to a class reunion. Men who keep their exercise habits and strict lifestyles still look young. This is in sharp contrast with the looks of most fat "middle-aged uncles" and will produce the feeling of "poor generation". However, men who can still maintain their youthful vitality and appearance at the age of 40 will always be a minority.

This is the general path of the aging development of most men from their twenties to their forties. It can also be said that from the age of 25 to 40, it is a gradual process in which the young appearance is exhausted, and it will not suddenly make people old. Of course, the circumstances of life will also affect people's appearance. Some men will encounter great changes in their lives, such as major setbacks in their careers, family changes, serious diseases and so on. And it may make people age faster.

How do men delay aging?

There is no trick. Taking an active part in physical exercise is the best way for ordinary people to delay aging.

For us mortals, the best way to keep healthy and delay aging is to keep good eating and living habits and take an active part in physical exercise.

If men can stick to long-term regular fitness from their twenties, they will look much younger than their peers in middle age. The older you get, the more obvious this difference in appearance becomes. In fact, long-term strength training can keep men's muscle strength and endurance well, even in their forties and fifties, there is not much difference between them and their twenties. The anti-aging effect of aerobic exercise can not only maintain cardiopulmonary function, but also reduce free radicals in the body, enhance immunity, improve lipid metabolism and reduce blood lipids.

A lot of practice and research have also confirmed that exercise and fitness not only has a positive effect on improving physiological function, but also can adjust psychological activities and release pressure, thus making people more confident, cheerful and positive.

Basic requirements: It is a basic requirement to participate in physical exercise at least three times a week, each time 1 hour.

Paying attention to spiritual cultivation can also keep healthy and delay aging.

We pay attention to the practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism (practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism are not necessarily monks or Taoists), and we can also find that many people who remain young look younger than their peers. If readers have access to some practitioners, you can find this phenomenon.

Taoist ancient books, such as Sou Shen Ji and Shen Xian Zhuan, recorded a large number of practitioners who lived long and kept their faces forever. It describes a lot of their diet and practice methods. Like the famous Peng Zu, it is recorded that he lived over 800 years. He said that his life has rejected debauchery, and he only takes health care and self-cultivation as his responsibility, but his appearance has always remained very young. Of course, my son didn't talk about Machamp's confusion. Let's listen to these legends as information. However, Taoism and Buddhism require spiritual and psychological cultivation, take care of the body and mind, and pay more attention to internal rather than external material needs, which has indeed kept many practitioners healthy and young.

The so-called "phase is born from the heart", the secular life of cultivating the heart, being kind and moderate will undoubtedly be revealed in our appearance.

Modern health experts, fitness coaches and doctors always ask people to maintain a healthy lifestyle when they appeal to people to stay healthy and delay aging. And this also corresponds to the record in Neijing:

The Yellow Emperor asked, "I heard that ancient people were 100 years old in the Spring and Autumn Period, but their actions never failed." Nowadays, people are over half a year old and fail in sports, which is different from the times? "

Qi Bo's answer is, "People in ancient times ... practiced Yin and Yang, and practiced skills. They eat and drink regularly, live regularly, and work recklessly ... but they left when they were 100 years old. "

In fact, there is no secret to delaying aging and staying young forever. Just keep a healthy lifestyle. Although aging is inevitable, the young appearance of men can still be maintained for a long time, so don't worry about premature aging!

Spread out completely

My father was a handsome man when he was young. Later, I went out to do business all the year round, but every time I saw my father, I always lamented the kindness of the years to him: my father was never old, but he was still a smiling bodhisattva.

I will never forget the spring of 20 16.

My mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, just one afternoon in three months.

I saw my father decline immediately.

It seems that my hair was black just now, and it turned white inch by inch in the blink of an eye.

The back also slowly hunched down.

This often gives me the illusion that this man is not a father, but a strange old man who is afraid of losing his mother and is sad.

At that time, there was often a sad atmosphere at home.

But my father had to bear this sadness, work hard and serve my mother.

He didn't trust us to serve, and stayed up with his mother to fight cancer pain.

However, mother went anyway.

That day, my mother took my father's hand, and her eyes were full of concern and disappointment for my father.

Mother left, and she also took away all the attachment of her father to life.

Father refused to live with us.

He lives alone in the old house in his hometown, almost staying at home, slovenly, getting old day by day.

I often grieve for my father's stubbornness to die alone in the room, but there is nothing I can do. We are with our father every day, but his heart is still lonely. His heart belongs only to his mother and has never been open to anyone since.
