1, women get cancer easily when they are angry.
"Angry women are more likely to get cancer"-most people believe this is true, but there is no scientific reason. Recently, a study published by the national "Eleventh Five-Year" sub-health research group shows that 70% of urban female cancer patients in China belong to people's eyes as "good women"! They are often serious and meticulous in their daily lives, do not like to get angry, and live in an orderly way, but they are a high-risk group of cancer and have an early age of cancer. Experts pointed out that,
Bad personality and emotions, such as depression, paranoia, sulking, frankness, introversion, and being particularly competitive, are all "catalysts" for cancer. Experts suggest that a female friend might as well be a rare and confused "stupid woman", do a good job in the "anti-cancer tetralogy" from the aspects of optimizing personality, getting rid of depression, releasing stress and stabilizing psychology, keep cheerful and peaceful, exercise properly, stay away from "cancer personality" and not be a "more real" woman to ensure physical and mental health.
It is said that women live longer than men, but many women can't escape the "claws" of cancer. Recently, a study published by the national "Eleventh Five-Year" sub-health research group shows that 70% of urban female cancer patients in China belong to people's eyes as "good women"!
"Angry women are more likely to get cancer"-most people believe this is true, but there is no scientific reason. There is a woman with cancer. Looking back at her daily words and deeds, many people will find that "she is usually a little irritable" and "she is always sulking and stubborn." Are these negative emotions of women the chief culprit leading to cancer?
April 15 ~2 1 Yes 19 National Cancer Prevention and Publicity Week. Liu Duanqi, deputy secretary-general of China Anti-Cancer Association, said recently that there has always been a saying of "cancer personality" in the society, and some even think that "cancer personality" must have cancer. In fact, it is unscientific to judge that a person must have cancer simply from his personality. Without a fixed personality, you are doomed to get cancer. However, in daily life, women should pay attention to relieve stress and bad emotions in time and maintain mental health. Proper physical exercise is also conducive to relieving stress, improving immunity and helping to stay away from cancer.
Emotion is closely related to cancer, and you are always unhappy. If you are too serious, you will get cancer.
Experts from the national "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" sub-health research group revealed that after investigating more than 30,000 cases, the research group found that personality, occupation and psychological factors are closely related to cancer. Research shows that 70% of urban female cancer patients in China are "good women". They are often serious, meticulous, do not like to get angry, and live in an orderly way, but they are high-risk people with cancer and have an early age.
According to experts, among female cancer patients, there are four types of occupations that are high-risk groups, including accounting, primary and secondary school teachers, secretaries and office managers. "Women in these occupations are usually more serious and have greater work pressure; Failure to release or transform pressure in time; Most of them are engaged in low-control work and must obey the arrangement; At the same time, he is introverted and easily feels lonely in social life. "
Professor He Yumin, chairman of the Psychosomatic Medicine Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and doctoral supervisor of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said: "Bad personality and emotions are one of the risk factors in the development of cancer. Since the 1970s, foreign studies have shown that type C behavior can easily lead to cancer. The so-called type C behavior is a personality type put forward by American scholar 1977 when studying who is prone to malignant melanoma. Its main characteristics are' excessive patience, avoiding conflicts, excessive cooperation, submission, controlling negative emotions and pursuing perfection'. In domestic clinical research, we also found that most patients with breast cancer and middle-aged gastric cancer are this kind of personality, sulking, self-repression, and not good at expressing; Nine times out of ten, patients with esophageal cancer are stubborn and impatient. "
"The common characteristics of some cancer patients are introversion, reticence, depression, poor communication and poor self-understanding. They are unwilling to tell their families when they are unwell, and they will not go to the hospital until they can't hold on." Professor Yuan Fenglan from Cancer Hospital of China Academy of Medical Sciences said.
In addition, He Yumin pointed out: "In fact,' depression is easy to cause cancer' is the conclusion that Galen, the father of western medicine, a famous ancient Roman doctor, has long drawn; Zhu Danxi, a famous medical scientist in the Southern Song Dynasty in China, also mentioned in his "On Gezhi Language" that women are at odds with their in-laws and menstruation, and their mood is low, which is easy to get' milk rock', which is what we call breast cancer today. " He Yumin said that it can be seen that "old anger can cause cancer" still has some truth.
Professor Sang Baola, member of the Standing Committee of the Geriatrics Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Institute of Geriatrics of Xiyuan Hospital of Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, pointed out that Chinese medicine has long said that "emotion" causes disease. This disease caused by internal factors is different from those caused by external factors such as wind, cold, heat and dampness. The former will directly damage the function of the five internal organs and make the condition worse.
Experts say that in the statistics of all kinds of bad personality leading to cancer, people who can't release their emotional depression are prone to cancer. Foreign studies show that unresolved grief is closely related to breast cancer and cervical cancer. Patients with gastric cancer are often overly cautious, avoid conflicts and be cautious, even if they have strong dissatisfaction, they will compromise.
If you feel that you can't get through a hurdle in life, be careful when you are depressed for a year or two.
Why do bad emotions cause cancer? He Yumin explained that foreign countries have long believed that sensitivity, depression, paranoia and world-weariness are catalysts for cancer. The possible mechanism is that depression greatly weakens people's immune function, which makes people's functions in a low-quality state, and it is not easy to remove cells when they mutate. For example, some female cancer patients are serious, introverted, irritable and poor in expression, which leads to long-term high excitement and tension of autonomic nerve, endocrine and immune system, and repeated stimulation, resulting in damage to target organs such as breast and ovary. Many excellent men work hard to suppress themselves, and there are more cases of gastric cancer and pancreatic cancer, because the digestive system is a barometer of emotions and is easily damaged.
Professor Yuan Fenglan also pointed out that people who are angry often have lower oxygen saturation in their daily blood, which is completely different from people who are blushing and have higher oxygen saturation. When they are angry, their faces are pale, their lips are purple and their hands and feet are cold. Over time, they will lead to low immune function and organ diseases. The level of immune function is one of the factors that determine whether a person has cancer.
Sambora believes that anger is an inevitable emotion in a person's life, but it doesn't mean that people will get cancer as long as they are angry. It is a common negative event that couples quarrel and are criticized by leaders, and different people have different reactions to it. If you feel that things that make you angry in life are like a hurdle, you can't get through, your mind is stuck, and your depressed mentality lasts for a long time, reaching more than one or two years, then be careful. He Yumin also pointed out that people are in a state of long-term depression, and it will take at least two or three years before symptoms appear.
Luo Jiong, director of the Ninth Ward of the Depression Treatment Center of Beijing Anding Hospital, reminded that once symptoms such as depression, decreased interest, insomnia, anxiety, fear, pessimism, headache and world-weariness persist for more than two weeks, you may be suffering from depression, so you should seek medical attention in time.
People with sunny personality don't like getting sick. If they want to get angry, they need to change their cognitive style.
In fact, angry people are not only prone to cancer, but also face many other health risks in their lives. For example, research shows that when women are angry, they tend to grow spots, accelerate the aging of brain cells, lead to gastric ulcer and myocardial hypoxia, and may also cause hyperthyroidism.
Sambora said that sunny people don't like getting sick. If they want to stay angry and change their wrong cognitive style, it is the key to establish a correct cognitive style. How to change it? He introduced a formula A+B = C → D → E.
Among them, A stands for event, B stands for cognitive style, C stands for conclusion, D stands for emotion, and E stands for physical and mental health. The same event, different cognitive styles and different conclusions will cause different emotional reactions and have different effects on physical and mental health. For example, if you accidentally spill half a glass of water, Sambola said that different people will have different cognitive styles. A person comes to the conclusion that there is still half a cup left, so he feels happy and excited, which has a good influence on his physical and mental health; Another person came to the conclusion that half a glass of water was missing, which made him depressed and angry, thus adversely affecting his physical and mental health.
"Remember, many times, people can't change the objective environment, only change themselves. You can't always complain about why it's always me who is unlucky, but you ignore that everyone has their own day. Ask too many others and change yourself too little, and problems arise. " Sambora warned.
Professor He Yumin also agrees with the suggestion of changing the way of thinking. He said that it is also important to make more friends, variety of flowers and birds, cultivate various hobbies, read more good books and get more sunshine. Another simplest method is the "four-one-two meridian conditioning method": fourth, massage at Hegu, Neiguan, Zusanli and Taichong points twice a day for five minutes each time; First, the basic qigong practice based on abdominal breathing, twice a day, five minutes each time; The second is a squat exercise with two legs, once a day for five minutes each time. It can relieve depression, dredge meridians, regulate qi and blood, and activate joints, thus regulating the functions of viscera.
Do a good job in "Women's Anti-cancer Tetralogy", "Difficult to be confused" and stay away from cancer.
So what can be done to keep women away from cancer? Very simple, it is better to be a "stupid woman" who is rarely confused. In this regard, experts put forward a "four-part women's cancer prevention", including optimizing personality, getting rid of depression, releasing stress and stabilizing psychology.
First, learn to think in a different way. "In life, women should realize that not everything is important and must be taken seriously and perfected. In fact, only 5% of the things people encounter are very important or urgent; In addition, 15%~25% is urgent. Everything is serious, and it will inevitably lead to physical and mental fatigue and even dysfunction due to long-term stress, which will eventually lead to illness. Of all things, nothing is more important than your own health. "
Secondly, don't make too many associations in everything, it is best to be "difficult to be confused". Relax, but you can often have a bright future.
Third, learn to release stress in time. Women should not confine their lives to family and work, but should make more friends and get effective "social support". The higher the social support, the lower the possibility of cancer, and the easier it is to maintain your physical and mental health. We should also be good at expressing emotions in time and venting depression in time; At the same time, we should cultivate a variety of hobbies to release stress and depression and cultivate temperament.
In addition, women should also know the cyclical changes and be good at self-motivation. Remind yourself when you are physically and mentally exhausted: this is temporary and will soon come out of the "bottom".
Finally, exercise regularly and have a calm mind. "Women at high risk of cancer" should take part in outdoor activities, keep a peaceful mind, pay attention to rest, drink more green tea and eat more nuts.
Experts point out that cancer is actually a dual disease of mind and body. If you can be cheerful and have a tolerant and peaceful attitude in life, it will be more conducive to physical and mental health if you don't be a "real" woman. (Reporter Xiang Danping)
2. What should I do if I am angry?
1, don't bring anger to the night.
As the saying goes, "Don't hold a grudge overnight" is quite reasonable. Go to bed if you don't feel at ease, and bad emotions will always haunt you. It is reported that sleeping will increase our memory of emotions and help us to process and strengthen the information obtained during the day.
So falling asleep after a quarrel will make us remember the negative emotions more clearly.
2. Don't drive on the road.
It is dangerous to drive when people are angry. Research shows that driving when people are angry will increase the possibility of accidents. I am impulsive when I am angry. If my driving brain loses rational control at this time, I will only look forward, that is, the tunnel vision, and will not pay attention to the pedestrians and vehicles around me.
If you want to drive when you are angry, you should consciously watch the whole journey to avoid narrow vision.
3, should not vent
Eliminating anger as soon as possible sounds good, but it may be counterproductive. In fact, some people are unhappy or even angry only when they see others' growling and spitting on the Internet. At this time, if they vent their anger by hitting pillows and other behaviors, it will not only help, but will increase the possibility of excessive behavior in the future.
4, should not eat
Relieving anger by eating can sometimes backfire. "When we are angry, we always choose some unhealthy foods, such as foods high in sugar, fat and carbohydrates, instead of green vegetables."
In addition, the excitement will cause the body to have a fight or flight response, which is a danger signal. In this state, the digestive function of the body is weakened, which will lead to diarrhea or constipation.
5, should not continue to quarrel.
Arguing all the time when you can't calm your anger will make you say hurtful things, and you will regret it later, but you can't take it back. So when you are angry, don't give yourself time to calm down and continue the conversation.
Sometimes it may only take 10 minutes to calm down, and sometimes it takes 10 days.
It's important to take the initiative to return to the conversation. When you calm down, whether your mind or body is in a state of peace, you will express your views more clearly.
6. It is not advisable to drink alcohol
After a quarrel, it won't be very effective to choose to drown your sorrows and calm your mood, because alcohol will make your brain out of control and show your anger.
The frontal lobe of the brain will inhibit our impulsive emotions and prevent us from hurting ourselves or others, but alcohol will act on the frontal lobe of the brain, making it unable to work normally.
7. Don't ignore your blood pressure.
Two hours after being angry, it is easy to have a heart attack, especially for people with a history of heart disease.
If you are prone to high blood pressure, the wisest thing to do is to measure it quickly after you get angry. Everyone should know his blood pressure reaction when he is angry. If you keep going high, you need to control your emotions by strengthening exercise, improving sleep and biofeedback.
