experts answer: in fact, the elderly, like the young people, needless to pursue "thin", as long as the body is normal, a little weight. It is also acceptable to go beyond the normal range. Too thin will have a bad effect on health.
our body fat has the function of maintaining body temperature. The weak person lacks the normal amount of body fat to reduce the loss of heat and is prone to cold symptoms.
weight loss tends to be accompanied by changes in body metabolism. The reduction of antibody synthesis, the decrease of immune function and resistance will increase the incidence of various infectious diseases and infections.
in a certain range, weight is directly proportional to bone mineral density, and weight loss is more prone to fracture. People with a little fat fell down, fat was protected, and thin people did not.
is very thin. If the body suffers from chronic diseases, it will be difficult to sustain the consumption of diseases.
If before the weight is normal, suddenly in a period of time to lose weight, and accompanied by thirst, drink more water, more urine, fatigue symptoms, it must go to the hospital to see whether it is suffering from diabetes.
because the basic metabolism of the elderly is reduced, organs are also aging, hyperthyroidism is also easy to happen. A lot of people over 60 years of age have no obvious symptoms, only showing fever, Dohan, panic, eating, insomnia, mental irritability, and becoming thinner. At this time, do not mistakenly think that the body becomes thin is a manifestation of health, abnormal conditions should go to the hospital for examination.
chronic infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis, parasitic diseases of old age, old friends will also become thin. Therefore, we should not be careless when we suddenly lose weight. We should go to the hospital to check in time.
therefore, as long as the elderly are healthy, there is no need to deliberately pursue "old and thin", because skinny does not mean "longevity".
