The best time for women to improve their health

1. The best time to improve physical fitness

The first period is the period of menarche. During this period, under the guidance of a doctor, scientifically adjust the dietary structure and go to the sports field frequently, which can greatly improve the disease resistance.

The second time period is pregnancy and postpartum. Physiological processes such as pregnancy and childbirth will lead to endocrine changes, which directly affect people's body shape and physique. At this time, if you want to change your body shape that is too fat or too thin, you must seize this golden opportunity.

The third time period is menopause. At this time, the stress response of the human body is correspondingly sluggish, which can easily cause damage to the internal balance. At this stage, paying attention to nutrition, maintaining psychological balance, and adhering to regular physical exercise will benefit you in your later years.

2. The best time for calcium supplementation

People should pay attention to calcium supplementation throughout their life. For women, the childhood period of 12 to 14 years old is the most important, because these years are the sensitive period for human bone development.

3. The best time to prevent obesity

There are three time periods in a woman's life that are most likely to gain weight.

One is childhood. According to a survey, those who were overweight during the age of 10 to 13 have an 88% possibility of becoming a potbellied person after the age of 30. If the weight is normal at this stage, the possibility of gaining weight will be reduced by 60% in the future.

The second is the 10 years between the ages of 15 and 25. These 10 years are the peak period of fat cell prosperity and development, coupled with the massive secretion of sex hormones, the appetite and food intake are greatly increased, and it is most likely to "fat".

The third is after the age of 40. The function of the hypothalamus in the brain is reduced, the feeling of satiety is sluggish, and it is easy to overeat and become obese.

Prevention and treatment of two cancers in women, keep these points in mind

1. Prevention of breast cancer, lifestyle adjustment, emphasis on disease screening

1. Screening of non-breast cancer high-risk groups:

20-39 years old: breast screening is not recommended for this age group.

40 to 70 years old: once a year mammogram examination, combined with B-ultrasound examination is recommended for dense breasts (mammography shows that the glands are c-type or d-type).

Age 70 or older: Mammogram every 1 to 2 years.

2. Screening of breast cancer high-risk groups:

It is recommended to start breast screening at an earlier age (<40 years old), mammogram examination once a year, breast ultrasound examination every 6-12 months, and breast enhanced MRI once a year if necessary.

2. To stay away from cervical cancer, it is very important to do the following

1. Cervical cancer screening (TCT examination). According to the recommendations of the "Guidelines for Cancer Screening, Early Diagnosis and Early Treatment in China", any woman who has had sex for more than 3 years or has had sex for more than 21 years should be screened regularly.

2. Practice hygiene and maintain sexual integrity. Delay the age of sexual life, to avoid early marriage, early childbearing, prolific, sexual disorder. Pay attention to perineal cleansing. Women should strengthen menstrual period, puerperium and sexual life hygiene.

3. Strengthen health care work. Actively treat gynecological diseases, such as genital trichomonas, fungal and other infections.

Women should eat 6 more green leafy vegetables

There are more than 20 kinds of common dark green leafy vegetables. By analyzing relevant nutritional data, Chinese registered dietitians have selected 6 kinds with the most comprehensive nutrition. It is recommended to eat at least 2 fists (about 200 grams) every day. They are: spinach, mustard greens, Chinese cabbage, fungus, kale, and broccoli.

Nutrition experts said that women are especially recommended to eat this kind of vegetables, for the following reasons:

1. Helps to supplement calcium

The "Report on Nutrition and Chronic Disease Status of Chinese Residents (2020)" shows that the prevalence of osteoporosis in men over 40 years old in China is 4.4%, but it is as high as 20.9% in women. Therefore, women should take calcium supplements from a young age to increase the accumulation of bone mass. Green leafy vegetables are a very good source of calcium, not only rich in calcium, but also rich in vitamin K, which can promote calcium deposition on the bones.

2. High in Vitamin C

Blood supplementation is an important part of women's health preservation, and iron supplementation is inseparable from blood supplementation. Women from adulthood to menopause need 20 mg of iron per day, 25 to 35 mg during pregnancy and lactation, and men only need 15 mg per day. Ferric iron in plant foods cannot be directly absorbed by the human body, and vitamin C can convert it into ferrous iron that can be directly absorbed.

3. Rich in antioxidant ingredients

In addition to vitamin C, green leafy vegetables are also rich in β-carotene, α-tocopherol, lutein, and zeaxanthin, which together can better resist oxidation and inflammation.

4. Rich in isothiocyanates

Green leafy vegetables such as broccoli, kale, rape, bok choy, and mustard greens belong to the cruciferous family, and these vegetables are rich in isothiocyanates. Isothiocyanate and its metabolites can promote the conversion of estrogen into 2-hydroxyestrone, thereby weakening the proliferation and carcinogenesis of breast cells caused by estrogen.

5. Rich in folic acid

Rapidly developing embryonic cells, where DNA synthesis occurs more rapidly, are most sensitive to folate deficiency. Therefore, women during pregnancy and pregnancy should pay attention to folic acid supplementation, and green leafy vegetables are the most important dietary source.
