The "universal Chinese medicine health and wellness report" integration of tradition and innovation, not only to give full play to the unique advantages of Chinese medicine health care to serve the people, but also social capital to promote the development of Chinese medicine health services a good attempt to highlight the Chinese medicine health care in the emulation of nature, unity of mankind, the three reasons for the core, with the "Healthy China", "Healthy China". "Healthy China" national policy fits.

I. Health problems:

From the human body parts, health problems are mainly manifested in the liver, kidneys, stomach, spleen and lungs, the proportion of more than 4%. The report suggests that the liver should follow the liver's excretory properties, do not often depressed and repressed; do not often drink alcohol, stay up all night, liver yin liver blood depletion. Nourish the kidneys should pay attention to do not arbitrarily tonic, so as not to overheat depletion of kidney yin, pay attention to abstinence, to avoid excessive depletion of kidney essence. Nourish the spleen and stomach should pay attention to, dietary discipline, hunger and satiety, eat less bitter and cold food and drugs, to avoid damage to the spleen Yang. Nourish the lungs to pay attention to, lungs for "delicate organs", pay attention to cold and temperature moderation, to avoid the invasion of foreign evil, lungs like moist evil dry, pay attention to avoid the environment is too dry. The heart should pay attention to, do not think too much, depletion of heart blood, do not be overly fatigued, depletion of heart gas.

From the nature point of view, kidney yang deficiency ranked the highest, liver yin deficiency, liver fire blazing, liver blood deficiency, kidney yin deficiency ranked two to five. Liver and kidney two organs originally close relationship, traditional Chinese medicine, "liver and kidney the same source," said, suggesting that we should pay attention to the maintenance of the liver and kidneys in the usual health care process. Among the six bowels, the stomach has two types of evidence ranked first, indicating that a variety of factors have a great impact on the stomach, digestive problems are more common.

Second, the influence of factors:

Emotional

The Chinese medicine of emotions, including: joy, anger, worry, thoughts, sadness, fear, fear, shock, and people's visceral functions are closely related. The results of the study showed that 41.4% of people who often feel anxious are in a state of illness, and only 4.1% of people who do not feel anxious are in a state of illness. Anxiety is most likely to lead to liver stagnation, so that the liver dysfunction, so we do not mention the health of the first thought of "I should eat what", from the mental stress is also very important.

The "high-income, high-education" double-high people, first- and second-tier cities, women, young residents are more prone to mental stress. It is recommended that these people should not be over-ambitious, do not do things that are too far beyond their ability, and set some small goals that are easy to achieve, so that the mental stress will not be so great.

Diet

From the relationship between diet and health status, dietary habits, dietary structure, and dietary tastes all have an impact on health status. From the viewpoint of dietary habits, 42.4% of the people who have the habit of eating late-night snacks are in a state of illness, 36.2% of the people who do not have the habit of skipping breakfast are in a state of illness, and only 14% of the people who have three regular meals are in a state of illness. In terms of dietary structure, 25.4% of those who eat mainly meat are in a sick state, 18.3% of those who eat mainly vegetarian food are in a sick state, and 14.9% of those who eat a combination of meat and vegetarian food are in a sick state. This shows that a rational diet, a regular diet and a combination of meat and vegetables are more conducive to health.

From the point of view of dietary tastes, taste preferences are not conducive to health, which like fried food disease state of the highest number of people, and advocate that in the daily diet, the five flavors should not be too biased, as much as possible, a light diet, low-salt, low-fat is more conducive to health.

From the point of view of the use of health care products, the proportion of people in the state of disease using health care products for health care is 28.8%, the proportion of exercise for health care is 70.6%, while the proportion of people in the state of health using health care products for health care is 9%, the proportion of exercise for health care is 57.1%. People often start to take care of their health only when they have health problems, and their awareness of health care still needs to be improved. So people in the "not sick" state, we should know how to pay attention to and maintain their own health, do not wait until the disease began to realize their own health problems, prevention is always more important than treatment.

Living and rising

The proportion of residents who live and rise on time is 12.3%; the proportion of residents who live and rise irregularly is 33.4% and 29.3% respectively. The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine" that: Zi Shi is 23:00 to 1:00 a.m., noon is 11:00 to 13:00, Zi Shi and noon is the General Assembly of the yin and yang at this time to sleep is conducive to yin and yang Zi JUE yin, can alleviate the deficiency of yin, conservation of qi and blood, so that the skin is more lustrous, to reduce the color of the skin, prevention of premature aging, but also eliminate fatigue, so that the internal organs can rest for the body's reserves of energy. Afternoon nap Yang, can relieve fatigue, improve work efficiency, and prevent cardiovascular disease. A study shows that at least 3 times a week, the risk of sudden cardiac death is reduced by 37%

We can use warm water to soak the feet at night, massage the scalp, drink milk or honey and other methods to promote sleep. Avoid strenuous exercise, emotional excitement and stimulating drinks before bedtime.

Exercise

From the point of view of the frequency of exercise, the proportion of people who exercise every day in a healthy state is 41.5%, and the proportion of people in a state of disease is 20.5%. This suggests that a reasonable and good exercise habit is an important way to maintain a healthy state. Everyone should choose a way of exercising that can be adhered to every day according to his/her own physical characteristics and preferences, and develop a good exercise habit. However, exercise should also maintain the principle of "moderation", too much is not enough, overwork will damage the body. Therefore, according to the individual's physical condition, needs, maintain "moderate" exercise principles, in order to effectively maintain good health. Secondly, it is best not to exercise at night when the sun sets, at night, the outside world has been weak, the body's Yang Qi is also in the collection of time, if this time strenuous exercise, easy to consume Yang Qi, damage to the body.

Three, group differences

Differences in age

From 20 to 44 years of age, the proportion of the disease state in the highest 23%, 45-59 the proportion of the disease state in this age group is 11.7%, 60-80 the proportion of the disease state in this age group is 12.1%. In other words, the proportion of disease states in the younger age group is higher than that in the older age group.

Originally, 20 to 40 years old is the body strong, blood full of time, but in recent years, many diseases are showing a trend of the age of onset of the decreasing trend of 20-44 years of age is the stage of life learning and struggling, overdraft energy, overdraft physical situation often occurs, a great danger to the health of the people tend to think that the body of the young, do not pay attention to the health, maintain health, so this result to the young people sounded the alarm, the young people are not the most important thing. So this result is a wake-up call to young people, work, study and struggle for a career, should not be at the expense of health as a prerequisite.

Differences in family structure

The survey results showed that the proportion of disease status in "small family of three" (young couple + children) was 25.1%. The disease state in the susceptible health problems is mainly stomach, liver and spleen; while the proportion of composite family (young couple+children+elderly) has been sick is lower at 13.8%.

It is suggested that if young people do not have children after work, they should live separately from the elderly, which is more conducive to the health of family members, and if they have children, living with the elderly is more conducive to the health of family members, which also reflects that taking care of young children has a greater impact on the health of family members, and the elderly in the family share the care of the children's affairs is conducive to the health of the whole family.

Differences between genders

The results of this survey show that the proportion of women in a state of illness is significantly higher at 18.4% than that of men at 16.1%. This may be due to the fact that with the development and progress of our society, women are participating more and more in all social affairs, truly realizing the equality of men and women, but women are weaker than men in terms of energy and physical strength, so under the same influencing factors, the proportion of women suffering from diseases is higher.

Women are more prone to anxiety because they have to deal with parent-child and mother-in-law-daughter-in-law relationships. It is recommended that when you are in trouble, you may try to go to the nature to breathe fresh air, aerobic exercise; learn to control your emotions, and constantly self-adjustment ...... These are good ways to release the inner pressure.

Differences by place of residence

The proportion of urban residents who were already sick was 18.1% higher than that of rural residents, which was 13.6%. The reasons for this are complex. Overall, air quality in rural areas is cleaner than in urban areas, life in rural areas is less stressful, ingredients are fresher, etc., and there are more favorable health factors in rural areas than in urban areas.

Differences in income and education

From the point of view of income, the survey results show that the proportion of residents with a monthly income of less than 6,000 yuan was 13.5%, and the proportion of residents with a monthly income of more than 20,000 yuan was 24.3%.

From the point of view of education, the proportion of disease status of residents with junior high school or below is 10.2%, and the proportion of disease status of residents with master's degree or above is 33.1%. The main health problems of high-income and highly educated people are stomach dysfunction, lung dysfunction, and yin deficiency.

High-income and highly educated people have a higher proportion of disease states than low-income people with low education. Combined with the results of the previous study, high-income and high-education people are more prone to mental stress. This suggests that "the higher the ability, the greater the responsibility", responsibility often means mental stress, the fast pace of life, high cost of living, work pressure, economic pressure, academic pressure will be transformed into mental stress, which may be the main reason for this result. It is recommended that you relax, eat less cold food, do gentle exercise, and eat a full stomach.

Differences between different regions

The health status of Chinese medicine has regional characteristics, and the residents of South China have the worst health status in Chinese medicine, and are prone to health problems mainly in the kidneys, the liver and the stomach, and the diseases are mainly yang, yin, phlegm, and blood deficiencies. Central China is the best.

In addition, South China residents such as compared with the Northwest District, South China residents of kidney dysfunction proportion is 11.7%, Northwest District residents is 5.3%; South China residents of Yang deficiency proportion is 9.8%, Northwest District residents is 5.8%.

Health is the basic need of human beings. However, health is not an overnight thing, the data survey reminds us that only by improving their health status, adhere to good habits, diet, exercise, mood, regularity, and pay attention to the body's positive qi, yin and yang, viscera conditioning, perseverance, in order to let the body in the positive qi, yin and yang balance and internal organs and the Chinese medicine state of health, and play a "cure for the disease". The role of the "cure".
