Dear old friends of the community, hello! As we all know, as age increases, there may be a decrease in physical resistance, so it is particularly important to put in place measures to combat infection. Today, let us elaborate on practical ways to prevent infection, in the hope of helping you to be healthy.
First, personal hygiene must be given special attention in everyday life. The hand-washing is a key link, and we have to use fluid water and soap after lunch and when we’re back out, so we can put our hands together carefully, and keep them as long as possible at 20 seconds each time. Because our hands are exposed to a variety of things every day, and they can easily be infected, and if they are not cleaned, they can touch their noses and mouths and so on. In addition to hand-washing, regular changes in clothing, bed sheets, etc. are required to keep our small environment clean and clean and to reduce the “hotbeds” of disease.
There’s food, too. Older friends need to ensure a balanced diet and eat more protein-rich foods, like eggs, milk, fish and tofu, which are the “building materials” of our bodies, which can help to improve the body and give the body enough strength to withstand the invasion of the disease. At the same time, fresh vegetables and fruits, which are rich in vitamins, minerals and various antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, are useful for increasing immunity, such as oranges, spinach and carrots. Moreover, to avoid eating too greasy, too sweet or too salty foods, it may burden the body and affect its normal functioning.
Moderate campaigns are also very useful for combating infection. Senior friends can choose the right way to move, like walking is an especially good choice, walking in small areas or parks every day and breathing fresh air, both to move their muscles and to promote blood circulation, so that the immune cells in their bodies can better “patrol” all parts of their bodies and discover and eliminate invasive bacteria in time. If physical conditions permit, you can also punch Tai Chi, which relaxes, and you can exercise your body in harmony and balance. However, it is important to be safe and gradual in the exercise, but not overworked at the outset.
Living conditions are also important. In order to ensure that there is regular ventilation in the room, it is advisable to open the window two to three times a day, about half an hour each, to keep the indoor air fresh and to drain out the foul air that may carry the fungus. In addition, indoor temperatures and humidity should be adjusted, and a suitable, wet environment would be more comfortable and less conducive to the growth and spread of bacteria.
When you’re out, old friends have to take precautions. It is important to remember to wear masks, which can effectively prevent the spread of beams and reduce the risk of infection, if they are to be used in more densely populated locations such as the market for vegetables and supermarkets. Moreover, try to keep a distance from others and avoid going to places where the air is non-circulation, where people are overcrowded, and where people catch colds or get sick, to keep as little contact as possible.
Also, we older people need to be vaccinated on time, like the flu vaccine, the pneumonia vaccine, and they can form a “protective wall” in our bodies to help us better protect ourselves from the disease, to reduce the chance of infection and to live a better life.
Older friends in the community, if we pay more attention to these aspects, develop good habits and protect ourselves, we can better prevent infection and spend every day in a happy, healthy and healthy way. It is to be hoped that all of you will put these small approaches into action.
