Antivirals are targeted treatments for colds and flu, which are especially critical for the elderly; children; and patients with chronic illnesses. Their use within 48 hours of diagnosis (e.g., oseltamivir) reduces the mortality rate of influenza by 52%. While proprietary Chinese medicines need to identify wind-cold or wind-heat—wind-cold resembles the chilly winds of winter and requires exterior-warming and diaphoretic formulas; wind-heat, like sweltering summer heat, is suited to heat-clearing and detoxifying with Yinqiao Jiedu Tablets. Antibiotics are ineffective against viruses and may disrupt gut microbiota. So don't touch them unless you are diagnosed with a bacterial infection.

The body's use of elements like over 60 ones other than carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen are "elemental ciphers" that sustain life processes. Of these, seven macroelements — calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine and magnesium — make up 60%-80% of the minerals in the body. In China, however, only calcium is significantly and widely deficient. For the remaining minerals, daily balanced diet can keep them in balance. Random testing is like trying to decipher a chaotic code: since 2013 the National Health and Family Planning Commission of China has forbidden preventive mineral testing in children; hair or blood cannot indicate whole-body distribution of minerals. Protecting yourself from these supplement traps equates to refusing false decipherers. We can stay healthy only by rationally replenishing calcium according to symbiosis of elements on this planet.

Choosing the right shoes is like building a movable protective mechanism for feet: Allow toes some leeway in the toe box like an "airbag", The Upper Supports—analogous to skeletal armour preventing ankle sprains — are provided as follows, Heel cushion layer, and memory foam Insole have two stages of shock absorption; Forefoot sole bends by adopting tire pattern tu design offering precise terrain selection,—Walkers should choose raised treads for mountainous terrain to increase grip; beware over-flexibility of urban flats is a myth. Place the shoe on a flat surface to test it, and see if the forefoot curvature falls below that arch line which will "unlock buffering code for ground reaction forces" in walking.

Walking acts as a "health key" — every 1,000 daily steps taken lowers the risk of abnormal blood glucose by 13%. Over time, this is reflected in approximately ~0.05 kg of weight loss every week (~5 kg per year) and also decreased blood pressure, increased bone strength, better cognition function. The trick is achieving three parameters: step count, pace and posture — things read out from fitness dashboards that modulate your metabolic rhythms to counter diabetes, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression.

The prolonged use of electronic products triggers three major health risks: forward head posture (60° low cervical spine pressure 28kg ≈ equivalent to a 28kg load), requiring to adjust the posture every 30 minutes; screen blue light disrupts melatonin production causing insomnia, it is recommended to stay away from the electronic devices before going to bed; indoor addiction displaces the outdoor time (children need to be vigilant about developmental delays). The core of the solution is the intermittent usage principle - sedentary ≤ 90 minutes/per session, eye exercises follow the 20-20-20 principle, ensure daily outdoor exposure. Instead of resisting tech devices, it is better to strategically adjust: maintaining cervical alignment, regulating sleep cycles, and prioritizing sunlight exposure are the guidelines for a healthy life in the digital age.

Rich dietary fiber is like a nutritional package for gut microbiota, vegetables and grains need to account for half of the diet, and with the Mediterranean diet, a paradise for microbiota can be constructed quickly; meanwhile, regular aerobic exercise is like a fitness trainer for the microbiota, which can significantly increase the number of beneficial bacteria. And deviating from the normal mealtime for more than 2 hours will cause the risk of Helicobacter pylori infection to soar by 13 times; and the risk of gastritis will increase by 6 times. Together with stress management, we can protect these trillions of microbial residents so that food becomes a natural microbiota-supporting remedy.

Walking acts as "health insurance" for your body—a daily step count over 7,000 can massively cut down mortality risk by 50%-70% (Based on a cohort study of 100,000 individuals). After 40, every step counts more in cardiovascular protection. Older adults should clock in 6,000–8,000 steps per day; younger adults need 8,000–10,000 steps —it’s like activating an intelligent "regulator" which provides plenty of health benefits and does not stress the joints. Once you exceed the limit, your body switches to an "overclocking mode" — wears and tears follow. But for children, it is the running and jumping that encode their vitality.

If you want to slow down the aging process, you may want to try letting your body "suffer" appropriately! Cold environments stimulate the body's unique anti-aging genes, while saunas, although the mechanism is unknown, have been shown to reduce cardiovascular risk. The most controllable method is exercise: the short-term hypoxia brought about by medium to high-intensity workouts triggers cellular repair systems throughout the body. In addition, the scientifically proven light fasting method is more direct: eat all your food within 8 hours a day, control your calorie intake, and practice it one day a week. These "adversity stimuli" remind cells not to remain inactive and actively repair themselves. Aging is not inevitable; scientific intervention can press the reset button.
