The weather has been changing a lot these days, with sudden cold and hot spells, and if the body’s resistance is slightly weak, it is easier to be affected and get sick if not careful. When the resistance is weak, we need to pay attention to supplementing nutrition in our daily lives, especially as we get older, our bodies need more energy replenishment. Lately, my husband has been busier at work. He works until late at night every day, then has to get up early the next morning to rush to work. He is often tired, and recently, he has been saying that the weather changes a lot, so he has been experiencing frequent lower back pain.
Men generally play a crucial role as the primary breadwinners in families, but men tend to be a bit rough in their ways. They work hard outside, often neglecting their own health issues. If minor issues are not addressed promptly, they can turn into major problems.
