The back is an inch thick.

If the back is one inch thin, all diseases will disappear and the life span will be ten years.

There are many folk sayings about longevity, some of which are not credible and some are instructive. Many people think that old and thin people live longer and are less likely to get sick. This thin part is also exquisite, that is, the back, the paper-thin back is the healthiest. This view mainly comes from the phrase "an inch thin back, 90% sick, ten years old". Is it true or not? Does thin back really contribute to longevity? Let's take a look.

The correlation is as follows

According to the words, the old saying that losing an inch on the back, which is now 3.3 cm, will help eliminate all diseases and prolong life for ten years is obviously exaggerated. But the thickness of the back is really related to health and longevity. A lifeline for people on the back is the spine, which is the reflex zone of internal organs.

The accumulation of fat on the thick back will not only increase the burden on the spine, lead to the deformation of the spine, but also block the meridians on the back, leading to poor qi and blood, which will lead to all diseases. Therefore, if the back is thin, naturally there will be no diseases, eliminating all diseases and contributing to health and longevity.
