Real wellness means tuning into your body’s signals, eating and sleeping in moderation, and prioritizing rest and connection. We often…

日前，世界壯年運動會在台灣開幕，由輝達CEO黃仁勳擔任聖火代表。這次令國際傳媒關注的，是當中一名年屆一○四歲的台灣羽毛球選手林友茂以超高齡之姿報名參賽。 當黃仁勳和林友茂碰頭並得悉林氏歲數後，黃仁勳當場看傻眼，向林氏問道，如何保持長壽？林友茂笑笑口以四字回應：「多看美女。」這麼幽默、「玩得」的開朗伯伯，難怪長壽又健康。 這又令我想起較早前，讀到中國協和深圳醫院婦科主治醫師何振業給女性的提議：女性若氣血不足、情緒低落、精神不振，可觀看「肌肉男」或賞心悅目之事去令自己提升情緒，皆因視覺刺激會加速多巴胺分泌，有減壓、平衡內分泌和增加快樂感之效果（怪不得每年的澳洲消防員日曆總是大賣）。 看完這個報道，我已開懷大笑，毋須再看肌肉男。但我對於林友茂和何振業之建議，欣然接受，亦非常欣賞他們夠膽直講。不知道他們是為氹大家開心而講、抑或是真心相信，但無論如何，男士多看美女，女士多看肌肉男，大家平等又愉快，健康又長壽，實無不可。 學術期刊《Evolutionary Psychology》，在二○一五年亦刊登過一個有趣研究，發現無論男女，看過賞心悅目的異性陌生人照片後，大腦的注意力、短暫記憶力和執行能力都獲得提升。人類天性，眼目都是喜歡看美人和美事，看得多身心舒暢，人也精神爽利一點。 我承認，自己很喜歡看靚人，男女不拘，但最緊要是自然美，絕不能有絲毫「動工」或「加工」痕迹。現在走在街上，遇到沒有割過雙眼皮或吊過綫、沒有打過botox或透明質酸、沒有掛着一副膠面的天然美人，會感到非常難能可貴，簡直鳳毛麟角，會禁不住多望兩眼。 撰文 : 利嘉敏 欄名 : 攻關女子 Source link

環球最大AI晶片公司NVIDIA行政總裁Jensen Huang（黃仁勳）有一特徵，就是無論大小場合，他只穿着有型有款的黑皮褸出席。 相傳，他的皮褸大部分出自名牌，價值不菲，加上高大身材，這fashion statement（時尚宣言）來得很有品味。 惟在美國總統中東一行，同場的Jensen Huang竟然一改風格，在台上與政要和其他CEO合影時，竟正經八百地穿上一套剪裁修身的藍色西裝，再配上搶眼藍色領呔，看來也醒目，但相比那有型的黑皮褸，這Jensen Huang有點不像Jensen Huang。 在「合適」場合被迫穿上「合適」衣裝，這是社會常規，醫生絕對討厭領呔，這是個人喜好問題，但在某場合也會被迫就範，例如多年前到英國開會，主人家盛意拳拳安排在Westminster Houses of Parliament吃晚飯，規矩就是一條領呔，不佩戴領呔就連門口也不能進，醫生只好趕買一條頗醜的領呔放在頸上。 尊重場合是需要的，也是某些社團的基本需求，主要源自歷史和傳統，掌權者若能把握傳統便能把握權力，所以不會輕易放棄。與此同時，時尚宣言是人身自由，除個人喜好外，還是表達自我的途徑之一，在自由開放的西方社會，這是基本權利。 既然穿領呔有理，不穿也有理，唯一解決就是逃避所有被迫需佩戴領呔的場合！ 撰文 : 莫樹錦 欄名 : 醫筆稱心 Source link
