The relationship between life and weight is discovered: After 60 years of age, the weight of the slightly fat is just right. Did you meet the standard?
A monthly weight loss was reduced by more than 10 pounds, and the malignant tumor was finally found!
After 40 years of age, Lao Liu’s weight rose straight. The middle -aged “blessing” was very serious. For many years, he was afraid that he was sick because of obesity, but weight loss was too painful to him, and he was abandoned halfway every time.
At the age of 68, he is the “Fat Grandpa” in his grandson.
From about 2 months ago, Lao Liu found that his weight dropped a lot, and the weight dropped by more than 10 pounds in just 2 months. This made him feel very happy.
When his son went home on vacation, he showed off with him, and he finally lost weight. The son did not go home for about half a year. When he saw Lao Liu, he was startled. He did lose a lot. After asking, the son learned that Lao Liu was accompanied by abdominal pain and indigestion.
As a medical student, he was very alert to this. He asked his father if he insisted on exercising or controlling diet. After getting a negative answer, he quickly took his father to the hospital for examination.
After gastroscopy and a series of examinations of pathological examination, Lao Liu was diagnosed with the middle of gastric cancer. Fortunately, the condition did not spread, and there was opportunities for surgical treatment.
Lao Liu couldn’t believe that the culprit of weight loss was tumor!
Because of the decline in weight, it was found to have cancer? Is it not good for middle -aged and elderly people?

1. Is it difficult to buy old age? Be wary of non -voluntary weight loss
I believe that everyone has heard of this sentence, thinking that the thinner the elderly, the healthier, the healthier, and some elderly people will be very happy when there is no reason to lose weight, but this may not be a good phenomenon.
The decline in weightlessness is clinically called non -voluntary weight loss. Generally, patients’ weight decreases ≥5%than usual in 6 to 12 months, but it does not perform any additional exercise or control diet.
The decline in non -voluntary weight is often implied that severe physical and mental illness, causing many causes of the phenomenon.
About 15-37%of patients with weight loss are caused by malignant tumors, 10 ~ 20%are caused by gastrointestinal non -malignant tumors, and 10 ~ 23%are caused by psychological factors.
For people who have decreased in non -voluntary weight, if you find that your weight continues to decline, or accompanied by abnormal symptoms such as fever, cough, chest pain, abdominal pain, etc., you must cause vigilance.
Which diseases may cause weight to decline suddenly?
① Diabetes: The most typical symptoms of diabetic patients are drinking, urine, more food, and weight loss. Due to insufficient insulin secretion in the body, the body cannot obtain glucose in the food in time. The weight continues to decline.
② Chronic diseases: Some people suffering from chronic gastritis and gastrointestinal ulcers may also quickly lose weight in a short time.
③ Hyperthyroidism: Patients with hyperthyroidism also have symptoms of appetite but decreased in weight. Such patients often have symptoms such as thick necks, panic, and shaking.
④ Prefers to cancer: Some patients suffering from colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer have no other obvious symptoms in the early days, but they will have a decline in weight loss.

2. After the age of 60, do not harmonize the weight, and it may be healthier.
A study was published in “Popular School Yearbook”, which has been conducted for 73 years, with 4,576 subjects. After analysis, it was found that the people who maintained normal weight when they were young, and those who were younger when they were older, and their mortality rate was lower.
Earlier European scientists have also studied 100,000 elderly people. Studies have found that if the elderly are too light, the mortality rate will increase by 10%; overweight will also increase the mortality by 8%. BMI = weight ÷ height square) The longest survival is maintained at about 25.
Sun Xiaohong, an elderly medical department of Peking Union Hospital, said: For the elderly 60 and above in my country, the constitution index is normal in the range of 20kg/㎡-26.9kg/㎡.
If the weight is light, you may have to face 4 risks:
1. weakness and weakness
Muscle strength requires sufficient protein to maintain health and vitality. If the protein intake for a long time, it will cause the muscles of the elderly to become weak and make it easier to fall daily.
2. Decrease immunity
The elderly will have different degrees of basic diseases. At this stage, if it is too light, it is easy to reduce the basal metabolic rate and immunity, and increase the chance of the development of the disease.
3. osteoporosis
Smoom elderly people are prone to insufficient muscle mass. Most of these elderly people will have the phenomenon of lack of calcium and vitamin D levels. It is difficult to maintain normal bone density. The risk of osteoporosis will increase.
4. More likely to suffer from old -fashioned symptoms
A study in the authoritative international journal “Emotional Disarior Magazine” shows that people who are too lightweight will increase the risk of dementia. The research results show that inadequate weight is an important risk factor for cognitive obstacles in our country.

Third, too thin and fat are not good. How should the elderly maintain a healthy weight? Since the elderly cannot be too light or too heavy, how to balance this degree? Keep healthy weight, it is recommended to do these four things well.
1. Scientific diet, nutrition match
Ensure sufficient nutritional intake in diet. Vegetables, poultry, poultry, eggs, milk, soy products and seafood foods need to be intake. The daily diet is as diverse as possible, so that the body can intake a variety of different nutrients. element.
Note that the cooking method should be based on light, avoiding high calories such as fried, fried, and roasting.
2. A moderate amount of resistance training
It is recommended that the elderly can exercise appropriately, such as raising mineral water bottle, fast walking, jogging, Tai Chi, etc. are a good choice. Note that exercise must be done, and the premise of physical permission will be performed.
3. Pay attention to controlling weight during middle age
People with overweight weights in the middle age are also easy to obese during their seniority, so when they are middle -aged, they must start controlling weight and make comprehensive changes from exercise and diet. Don’t wait until old to control the weight.
4. Do a good job of weight monitoring everyday
The elderly should pay more attention to their weight daily, and it is best to record their weight changes. Once they find abnormal weight gain and reduce their time in time.
Weight is very important for people’s health. Many people want to lose weight to avoid obesity -related diseases. But we should not be too extreme, weighing within a healthy range, and too thin and fat is not good for health.
“Lao Lian” may not be able to get “Lao Lianshou”? In fact, for middle -aged and elderly people, slightly fat is longevity. Is your weight reaching the standard? Take a look at it.
