Vitamin Supplements Could Shorten Lifespan

New Findings Reveal Vitamin Supplements Could Shorten Lifespan

Vitamins
Vitamins are substances that are naturally present in the foods we eat. Although we only need a small amount of them, they are crucial for normal growth, development and good health. Vitamins do not contain any calories but they are necessary for the body to convert food into energy. Vitamins are also essential in building and repairing cells, tissues and organs.

In recent years, taking vitamin supplements has become the norm rather than the exception due to modern people’s fast-paced lives and hectic schedules. Many people assume that by popping a multi-vitamin pill, they make up for what they lack in their diets. After all, even if supplements do not help, they will not harm.

Advocates of vitamin supplementation believe that vitamins can greatly eradicate free-radical damage, thereby preventing cancer and other diseases. This theory was once supported by initial tests. However, recent tests reveal disturbing results. According to the latest study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), taking supplements such as vitamins A, E and beta-carotene could shorten lifespan.

Vitamins A, E and beta-carotene have recently been discovered by researchers from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, to raise the risk of early death by 16, four and seven percent respectively. Current research by Harvard University shows that adding vitamin A to lowfat milk is not beneficial for the body as it may lead to osteoporosis. In addition, people who take vitamin A supplements face a 50 per cent increased risk of bone fracture.


In the past, it was said that taking vitamin E supplements can lead to a lower risk of lung cancer for men below 60 who have been smoking for less than 40 years. The latest research,however, states that this protective effect works only if one eats a well balanced diet that includes foods rich in vitamin E.

Vitamin C did not fare any better. It has been found that long-term
consumption of vitamin C pills may increase oxalic acid in the body,
thereby increasing the risk of oxalate-type kidney stone formation. Allicin,
the principal biological active compound of garlic, was once thought to
reduce cholesterol, hypertension and help fight infection. However, recent
research found out that the effects are temporary and inconsistent.

10 Things Not To Do after a Meal

许多人都很注重健康。但许多人都没注意到自己每天却一直重复着做些影响自己健康的事情，而且还无意中影响或误导身边的人了，自己都不晓得呢!

自从我了一些文章后,领悟了许多重要必知的事情-饭后做了几件事情会让你变成短命的，所以一定要跟大家分享!!

饭后不宜立即做的13件事

1) 吸烟
饭后吸烟的危害比平时大10倍！因为进食后的消化道血液循环增多，人体吸收烟中有毒物质的能力变强。更容易损害肝脏,肺，大脑及心脏血管而引起疾病。

我个人原本就不喜欢烟味，更不懂得抽烟。知道这饭后不宜做的事后，我更是讨厌-当我正在用餐时，顾客却在旁边抽烟。

2) 饮茶
饮茶，会冲淡胃液，影响食物消化。同时，茶中的:单宁酸-能使食物中的蛋白质变成不易消化的凝固物质，给胃增加负担，并影响蛋白质的吸收。鞣酸-与食物中的铁元素结合，阻止铁在肠道的吸收；鞣酸+蛋白质=鞣酸蛋白质-使肠蠕动减慢，从而延长粪便在肠道内潴留的时间，不但 易造成便秘，而且还增加了有毒物质和致癌物质被人体吸收的可能性，所以进餐后不可立即饮茶，特别不要立即喝浓茶。

在餐厅里,饮料中茶比较便宜.但懂了以后,用餐时不再喝茶了。


3)放松皮带扣
很多人吃饭过量后感觉撑得慌，常常放松皮带扣，然后又继续吃.尤其是"一个价钱，吃到饱".虽然松皮带扣,肚子舒服了，但是会造成腹腔内压的下降，逼迫胃部下垂。长此以往，就会患上真的胃下垂,变有了大肚腩了。真不值得啊!

4) 吃水果

很多人都喜欢饭后吃点水果，这是一种错误的生活习惯。食物进入胃以后，需要经过1到2小时的消化，如果饭后立即吃水果，就会被先前吃进的食物阻挡，致使水果不能正常地消化。时间长了，就会引起腹胀、腹泻或便秘等症状

5) 到处走动
饭后胃处于充盈状态，即使很轻微的运动也会使胃受到震动,增加胃肠负担,影响消化道对营养物质的吸收。
尤其是老年人，心脏功能减退、血管硬化，餐后散步多会出现血压下降等现象。
之前说过，很多人会无意中误导身边的人，那就是

• "饭后百步走,能活九十九"
• 饭后不走动,会有大肚腩
  

这是错的概念!!所以呢!吃饱后，先坐着聊天10分钟后才再走动吧!


6) 立即刷牙
否则会使松弛的牙釉质受损。


7)立即洗澡
洗澡会促使四肢皮肤血管扩张血液汇集身体表面，使胃肠血流量减少，消化液分泌减少，降低消化功能；若经常饭后洗澡，会引起胃肠疾病。另外，还易导致冠心病者发生心绞痛和心肌梗塞，尤其是对高血压、高血脂者更为危险。饭后1～3个小时洗澡比较适宜。


8) 立即驾驶,工作或过度用脑。
这是因为饭后胃肠对食物的消化需要大量的血液，造成大脑器官暂时性缺血。因而有昏昏欲睡的感觉，从而导致操作失误。过度用脑或读书也不利于让消化器官充分吸收营养。


9) 饱后卡拉OK。
吃饱后人的胃容量增大，胃壁变薄，血流量增加。这时唱歌，会使隔膜下移，腹腔压力增大，轻则引起消化不良，重则引发胃肠不适及其他病症。另外，如果吃饭时 饮酒者，随着酒精的刺激，人的喉头、声带自然充血，此时卡拉OK，会加重喉头、声带的充血和水肿，极易引起急性咽喉炎。因此，饱餐后应休息一段时间再唱 歌。


10) 立即上床。
　　因为刚吃了饭，胃内充满食物，消化机能正处于运动状态，这时睡觉会影响胃的消化，不利于食物的吸收。同时，饭后脑部供血不足，如果饭后立即上床，很容易因大脑局部供血不足而导致中风。

另外，入睡后，人体新陈代谢率降低，易使摄入食物中所含热量转变为脂肪而使人发胖。
