Most of our male friends serve as the mainstay of the family, needing to shoulder a greater burden at home. Working outside, facing their wives, children, and parents at home, any health issues will inevitably affect the happiness and harmony of the entire family. However, with the current rapid development of work and social environment, failure to keep up with the societal pace may lead to being left behind. Overtime and staying up late have become common, leading to a constant state of suboptimal health. The kidney qi and yang qi within men gradually diminish. Immunity and resistance decline, making them vulnerable to viruses and bacteria.
Men can enhance kidney health and vitality by avoiding three common habits.
1. Staying up late frequently.
Due to the prevalence of electronic devices, many young men spend each night playing games. While overtime due to work may be unavoidable, staying up late voluntarily for phone use or gaming disrupts the body’s natural rhythm. Continuous late nights can lead to hormonal imbalances, a sustained decrease in male immunity and resistance, and an increased risk of illness.
2. Prolonged sitting.
With changes in work styles, many individuals spend most of their day sitting in front of a computer. Prolonged sitting hinders blood circulation, potentially leading to obesity and the accumulation of toxins within the body. Lack of movement can result in the loss of yang qi. Despite mental fatigue after work, it is advisable to engage in moderate exercise.
3. Smoking and drinking.
Many men engage in smoking and drinking during social gatherings. While these habits may seem enticing, they increase the risk of health issues. Long-term smoking and heavy drinking can disrupt kidney function and deplete yang qi. It may be challenging to quit completely, but reducing these habits is beneficial for overall health.
These are common habits among men. By minimizing them, one might unknowingly enhance their yang qi, gradually restoring vitality. If you find this article helpful, please consider liking it. Thank you.
