Health Awareness
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSLife Lies in Movement: Understanding Exercise CorrectlyJust like heartbeats or breathing, movement is essential to human life; In 2016, exercise capacity was brought into the limelight by American College of Cardiology as a fifth vital sign — with each vagary adding up and causing an 12% surge in survival — thereby armouring body against disease. Longevity increases with physical activity improvement; even coronary patients benefit. Inactive people are at a fourfold higher mortality risk than their active counterparts, with benefits exceeding those of blood-pressure and glucose control.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSSkincare Basics: The Skin BarrierSkincare is essentially about protecting the skin barrier, which acts like a brick-and-mortar system. It involves the stratum corneum and sebum-sweat film; natural barrier. Daily cleansing should fit naturally into your schedule and rhythm of life so as not to "break" down this wall with abrasive scrubbing or over-zealous care. If your skin turns red, breaks out, feels dry or itchy, it’s a sign the barrier might have been breached —just like cracks in dam that need fixing urgently before affecting health.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSGentle Skin Cleansing: Avoid Too Much FrictionSkin care demands a gentle touch, like silk — watch for over-exfoliation. Once harmed by scrubbing, exfoliation or rubbing, the stratum corneum ("barrier wall") requires 28 days to be repaired. Cleaning shouldn’t involve stripping daily like "onionskin" removal. If you have oily or mature skin that needs an occasional exfoliation, rely on soft tools for 2–4 weeks at a time. To stop bacteria breeding, wash towels every 3 days and change them every 3 months.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSHow Sedentary People Can Avoid Long SittingSitting too long is a metabolic time bomb — and by using methods like the "90 Minute Alarm Deactivation," "Height-Adjustable Desk Power Modules," "Commute Micro-Movement Module" and "Standing Meeting Circuit Breaker" — it can be diffused. Especially teenagers (13–18 years) relying on screens for 6.5 hrs/day, creating "electronic-free bedrooms" and turning on a "Daily 2-Hour Screen Time Limit" become vascular stents for arteries, calcium conveyor belts for bones — converting still work patterns into health assembly lines of motion.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSReducing Risks Associated with Extended SittingSitting for long periods is like putting "motion-restricting shackles" on your body — you can take them off with a "Dynamic Liberation Trilogy": Cervical and lumbar stretches release tight muscles; heel raises are tiny energy generators—research has revealed individuals sitting for an average of 10.7 hours daily who completed 270 minutes of heel raise training doubled their energy expenditure—and cardiac activators in the form of HIIT-driven jumping jacks. With WHO's interval training conceptually wrapped into this—a metabolic "triple-engined" hijacking of body mechanics to break free from stationary positions; transforming that one metre square perimeter in your office as constantly evolving “health recharging station”.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSThe three dimensions of health: complete physical, mental, and social well-beingHealth cannot be based solely on physical examination data, but it is crucial to see whether the body can easily cope with daily life: eating well, working without fatigue, and bringing up children without collapsing, these subjective experiences are more reliable than laboratory tests. At the same time, we should pay attention to the balance between body and mind, and use tools such as blood pressure monitors and wearables to monitor our sleep patterns and sleep status. When faced with late nights and overtime or high-altitude challenges, does the body have enough reserves to withstand the stress? True health is not only the normal functioning of organs but also the ability to withstand fatigue daily and the strength to fight in critical moments — your true feelings are the most accurate “health indicator”.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSHow much impact can small actions have? Health is all about action, so take action now!Health is hidden in small daily habits! The way you brush your teeth, eat, walk, these seemingly insignificant actions are the key to health. Don't be intimidated by the notion that you have to be perfectly disciplined — get moving first! Science has found that 99% of a person's behavior is automatically governed by the body's habits and only 1% by the brain's conscious mind. So don't wait to ‘figure it out’, engage in healthy habits for 3 weeks and your body will adapt and even fall in love with the healthier lifestyle. Just like the habit of stepping on the left foot first, stepping on the right foot first becomes a habit, a lighter diet, and regular exercise can also rely on behavior to force the brain to change. Remember: health is not thought out, but is a daily action cultivated out of the body's memory.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSElectric Toothbrushes: 5 Key Benefits You Should KnowThe electric toothbrush creates consistent cleaning power through constant vibration frequency, and its cleaning efficiency exceeds that of manual toothbrushing by tens of times, especially in the crevices of the teeth and around the orthodontic appliances to achieve targeted plaque removal. Clinical validation showed that the gingival bleeding index of orthodontic patients was reduced by 38% and the plaque reduction was increased by 52% after the use of the electric toothbrush. However, in children under 5 years of age, because the gingival epithelium has not completed keratinization, high-frequency vibration may cause micro-tears. The core of the selection should focus on the brush head fit and comfortable amplitude, additional intelligent features are gimmicks.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSThree basic training methods for addressing postural issues: adjusting posture, correcting gait, and combating prolonged sittingThe correction of body posture only requires three steps: adjusting standing posture, correcting gait, and avoiding sustained sitting! Standing ears, shoulders, and knees into vertical alignment, core engagement with knee flexion to prevent low back pressure; walking with the ‘footprint test’ to check the symmetry of the ankle, knee, and hip - midfoot strike pattern, to avoid knee hyperextension (quadriceps training is the key), excessive lumbar lordosis (training the gluteus maximus muscle) and pelvic misalignment. Prolonged sitting is worse than leg-crossing! Don't sit in any position for more than an hour, and switch positions every 30 minutes - dynamic adjustment is the way to go! Remember: there is no such thing as perfect posture; there is only the ‘next posture’!
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSThe most essential way to correct any poor posture is simply strength trainingThe key to posture correction is to strengthen the muscles. Poor posture often stems from a lack of muscle strength in specific areas: such as anterior pelvic tilt; which requires strengthening of the core muscles; or hunchback, which requires strengthening of the back muscles. exercise are needed to maintain muscle strength after correction. posture management is a way to alleviate discomfort and prevent health risks such as joint injuries by increasing muscle support. Like structural beams in construction, muscle strength is the ‘structural framework’ that maintains the correct posture and helps the body maintain its natural uprightness from the root.

High volumes or prolonged stimulation will lead to the death of auditory hair cells, resulting in hearing loss.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSVitamin deficiency determines whether the body synthesizes survival or longevity proteinsVitamins implicitly regulate the body's protein allocation strategy: when they are inadequate, the body prioritizes the synthesis of ‘survival proteins’ to ensure survival and reproduction, and reduces the synthesis of ‘longevity proteins’ for DNA repair and anti-aging, leading to an increased risk of chronic diseases, when they are sufficient, they activate the longevity mechanism The two types of proteins are dependent on overlapping vitamin resources, and there is a competitive relationship– the intake threshold determines whether the body prioritizes short-term survival or long-term health preservation. Hidden daily deficiencies, though not acute, can quietly undermine health and longevity. Are you taking your vitamins for the present or are you investing in the future?
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSHow to Supplement Vitamin B with Limited Whole Grains IntakeVitamin B should primarily be obtained through diet, and whole grains, legumes, and meat are rich sources. Deficiency when the symptoms are not obvious (e.g., fatigue or insomnia) can be assessed through dietary habits: people who regularly consume refined rice and white flour are prone to deficiency. It is recommended to replace daily staple foods with whole grains (e.g., whole wheat, corn), avoid tea/coffee post-meal to prevent interference with absorption and choose supplements if the diet does not meet the standard. Due to their water-soluble nature, overdose is unlikely. The entire family should ensure adequate intake and a combination of coarse grains can meet the demand.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSHow Serious Should We Take Colds? When to Seek Medical CareWith the recent surge in flu cases, it can be said that 'cold' has become a common topic in daily conversations. Do we need to take colds seriously? Every year, the number of people who die of influenza worldwide is as high as 500,000 people. Highlighting the need for vigilance, when the cold fever is more than 38°C or persistent low-grade fever and other symptoms occur, you need to see a doctor as soon as possible.
- HEALTH AWARENESS|HEALTH AWARENESSGastrointestinal discomfort is related to stress: it's all the gut microbiota to blame!The intestinal tract is termed the "second brain", and the real brain communicates through the brain-gut axis—under stress, the brain sends alerts to the gut, so that the gut microbiota imbalance triggered abdominal pain and diarrhea. And intestinal flora not only control the rhythm of gastrointestinal peristalsis but also produce serotonin (5-HT) to affect the mood.
