Features: The World Health Organization defines: those under 65 years old are Chinese, 66 to 74 years old are young elderly, 75 to 90 years old are elderly, and 90 to 120 years old are super-aged elderly. Most human deaths are caused by diseases, while very few die of natural old age (due to physiological lifespan). Therefore, the United Nations Victoria Declaration tells us: "A balanced diet, moderate exercise, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption, and psychological balance" are the four cornerstones of maintaining physical health. The United Nations warns: Never die of ignorance! Prevention is more important than treatment. Humans must first build fitness, then achieve health, and then prevent diseases. The new international health concept is: the body has no defects or diseases, physiological and psychological states are complete, and social adaptability is strong. International conferences have identified six health-promoting foods beneficial to humans: green tea, wine, soy milk, yogurt, bone soup, and mushroom soup. International conferences warn against eating foods that are too large, too hard, too sticky, or too hot. The Chinese health department advocates: "One handful of vegetables, one handful of beans, one egg with a bit of meat." How should people live healthily to reach their physiological lifespan? Currently, the new global health concept holds that to have a healthy body, one must shift from a focus on treatment to a focus on prevention. Fitness leads to health, health prevents diseases, and disease prevention is more important than disease treatment. Only by doing well in prevention can diseases stay away from your body, and the vast majority of humans can live to their physiological lifespan without dying prematurely from diseases. For this reason, we compile and publish this book based on the new global health concepts of today, with the theme of the four cornerstones of health proposed by the United Nations Victoria Declaration—"A balanced diet, moderate exercise, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption, and psychological balance"—and guided by the latest international health theories. This book will have a significant impact on outdated health concepts in every family and serve as a comprehensive guide for readers' lifelong self-care.
