Have you done these three things that hurt your lungs?
Don't wear a mask in foggy days, it will hurt your lungs!
In recent years, everyone has heard about the harm of smog, but some people are not used to wearing masks, which is very harmful to the lungs. More and more epidemiological investigations and toxicological studies have confirmed that PM2.5 has a significant impact on human health, especially on the respiratory system. PM2.5 consists of major emissions from pollution sources (coal burning, motor vehicles, agricultural activities, etc.). ) and secondary pollutants formed by atmospheric photochemical reaction, including sulfate aerosol, organic carbon, ammonium and other components. It can stay in the atmosphere for a long time, seriously affecting lung health.
Long-term contact with kitchen fumes will hurt the lungs!
Many people are reluctant to turn on the range hood when cooking, which is also a major cause of lung disease. It is found that frying, frying, frying and other methods in home cooking can make PM2.5 in the environment soar dozens of times. At this time, fine particles suspended in the air for a long time will adsorb many polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (benzopyrene, heterocyclic amines), and long-term inhalation will easily induce lung cancer.
Five emotions are too intense and hurt the lungs!
It has been pointed out in the Fahrenheit Tripitaka that "excessive emotions will hurt the lungs". That is to say, people's emotional activities are closely related to lung function, and excessive activities can lead to lung diseases by affecting qi and blood circulation.
angry
Many people know that anger hurts the liver, but they don't know that anger is also indirectly related to the qi and blood of the lungs. When you are too angry, the liver fire is too strong, and the "wood fire torture gold" damages the lung yin, and there will be symptoms of hemoptysis and hematemesis. Modern research shows that when the mood is too excited, breathing will become rapid, leading to the continuous expansion of alveoli, unable to relax and rest, which is very harmful to the lungs.
happy
Excessive joy not only damages the soul of the lungs, but also damages the fur of the lungs. It is recorded in Soul Pivot: "Lung, infinite joy hurts the soul, and the soul hurts madness." In summer, if people are too happy, they are vulnerable to lung injury.
think
People who think too much directly damage lung qi and lung yin. Disorder of ascending and descending of lung qi, obstruction of pharyngeal nucleoli, deficiency of lung yin, lung dystrophy, cough and phlegm dampness are easy to occur.
sadder
When sorrow reaches the lungs, it is easiest to consume a lot of lung qi. People who are sad and depressed often have qi stagnation, which leads to lung qi stagnation and coughing. Long-term qi stagnation will also increase the risk of lung cancer. Lin Daiyu in A Dream of Red Mansions is a typical example of "extremely hurting the lungs". She was born to repay her blood and tears, transparent to all the people in the world but sad, so that she eventually died of lung disease.
be afraid
Panic can make lung qi escape continuously. Modern research shows that the maximum vital capacity and immediate expiratory volume of people who panic excessively have obvious changes, which proves that panic can also hurt the lungs.
In addition, in these five occupations, we must pay attention to nourishing the lungs!
1. Teachers writing on the blackboard and giving lectures for a long time will cause discomfort in the pharynx and lungs, which may lead to serious lung diseases in the long run.
2, medical staff for people's life safety, long-term scheduling, surgery, diagnosis and treatment, sometimes upside down day and night, very tired, coupled with constant contact with various patients at work, a little careless lungs will suffer from bacteria and viruses.
