Let's talk about the health things of Lichun
Fan Letter] Dear Doctor, Hello! I'm a big fan of yours and I've been following your social media accounts. Recently, while reading some books about health, I found a question: Why do we get sick? After thinking about it, I think it may be related to four reasons: genetic factors, environmental factors, lifestyle habits, and psychological state. I would like to ask you, are these four reasons accurate and how do they affect our health?
Popular Science Answers] Dear fans, hello! The questions you ask are very food for thought. Indeed, why do we get sick? There are many complex factors involved in this question. Next, I will answer this question in detail from a medical point of view.
First of all, genetic factors have a deep foundation in traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that a person's constitution is determined by both innate and acquired factors. Innate factors are genetic factors, and acquired factors include diet, lifestyle habits, etc. Genetic factors have an impact on a person's physique, thus determining an individual's susceptibility to diseases to a certain extent. For example, some genetic diseases, such as thalassemia and polycystic kidney disease, are closely related to genetic factors.
Secondly, environmental factors are also involved in traditional medicine in China. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that humans and the natural environment are closely related, and the changes of the seasons and climate change will affect people's health. Modern medical research has also confirmed that environmental factors such as air quality, water quality, food safety, etc., are closely related to the occurrence of diseases. For example, respiratory diseases caused by air pollution, digestive diseases caused by water pollution, etc.
Again, lifestyle habits are an important factor that affects health. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes "curing diseases before they occur" and advocates prevention first. Good lifestyle habits can effectively prevent the occurrence of diseases. On the other hand, poor lifestyle habits can lead to the occurrence of diseases. For example, bad lifestyle habits such as smoking, drinking, and staying up late can have a negative impact on physical health.
Finally, the impact of mental state on health cannot be ignored. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that emotional internal injury is one of the important causes of disease. Modern medical research has also confirmed that long-term mental stress, mood swings and other psychological factors can lead to a decline in immune system function, thereby increasing the risk of disease.
To sum up, the reasons why we get sick are indeed closely related to genetic factors, environmental factors, lifestyle habits and psychological state. Understanding these factors is important for us to prevent and improve the disease. On this basis, traditional medicine in China has proposed many effective prevention and prevention methods. For example, the health care methods of traditional Chinese medicine, such as Tai Chi and Wufowl Opera, help to regulate the body and mind and enhance physical fitness. In addition, the diet and daily life adjustment of traditional Chinese medicine also have guiding significance for improving the living environment and adjusting living habits.
Of course, modern medicine is also constantly studying and exploring the question of why we get sick. Through means such as gene editing, environmental governance, and lifestyle interventions, modern medicine is working to prevent and improve diseases. The combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine provides us with all-round and multi-level means.
Finally, I would like to emphasize that the purpose of understanding the causes of illness is to better prevent and ** disease. In daily life, we should pay attention to health preservation, develop good living habits, and maintain a good psychological state, so as to reduce the risk of disease. At the same time, we should also pay attention to environmental issues, actively participate in environmental protection, and create a better living environment for our health.
