经常不及时查收邮件的小编,在今天查邮件时,发现了一封几天前美国老年医学会(American Geriatric Society,AGS)官网推送的邮件:给父亲的5条健康贴士,对比一下,我们做到了吗?读完是不是有一点收获?
Does Your Dad Know These Five Health Tips?
Americans are living longer than ever, but the average life expectancy for men in the U.S. is still lower than life expectancy for women. (译文:美国社会正在逐渐老去,但是美国男性的预期寿命仍然低于女性。)
This Father's Day, help give all the dads and male role models in your life the gift of health in aging with these tips: (译文:这个父亲节,给所有的父亲、以及扮演父亲角色的人们一些健康老化的小贴士。)
See Your Healthcare Provider Regularly(第一条:规律看医生)
Even if you feel perfectly healthy, be sure to see your healthcare provider at least once a year. And when you feel sick, call your healthcare provider for help. Surveys find that men are less likely than women to see a provider when they're not feeling well.(译文:即使你觉得自己的健康状况非常好,也要至少每年看一次医生。研究显示当男性感觉自己健康状况不好时,他们寻求医生帮助的比例低于女性)
Take Medications Only As Directed(第二条:在医生的指导下用药)
At your next appointment with your healthcare provider, bring a complete list of all your medications, even those you buy in the store without a prescription. Why? The longer you live and the more medicines you take, the more likely you are to experience potentially harmful side effects or interactions between medications. (译文:下次预约看你的医生时,记得带上你当前所有用药的清单,包括那些你在药店买的非处方药/保健品。为什么?随着年龄增长,人的用药越来越多,故而发生药物相互作用、多重用药损害的风险也就越大。)
Get Your Shots(记得打疫苗)
Check with your healthcare provider to make sure you're up-to-date with your vaccines for the flu, pneumonia, shingles, and tetanus/diphtheria.(译文:记得联系您的医生,记得您本年的疫苗注射已经完成,包括流感、肺炎、水痘以及破伤风/水痘疫苗。)
Use Sunscreen(使用防晒产品)
Aging skin is more susceptible to sun damage, which boosts risks of skin cancer. Use sunscreen year round and, for added protection, wear a wide-brimmed hat.(译文:老化的皮肤更容易受到阳光的损伤,并且增加皮肤癌风险。记得在炎夏使用防晒产品,并记得戴一顶宽大的遮阳帽)
Lower Your Risk of Falls & Fractures(降低跌倒和骨折风险)
Osteoporosis is not just a women's condition. Be sure to get plenty of bone-healthy calcium and vitamin D. Do weight-bearing, bone-building exercises such as walking and jogging. Ask your healthcare provider about local exercise programs that include strength, balance, flexibility, and stretching exercises.(译文:骨质疏松并非女性的专利。记得补充足够的有利于骨骼强壮的钙和维生素D。做一些负重、抗阻力的运动。咨询您的医生,做一些有利于肌肉力量、平衡、柔韧性及伸展的运动)
