Good exercise for children's growing tall

Regular physical training helps the children to grow tall by promoting blood circulation, stimulating epiphyseal cartilage and bone, and promoting the secretion of growth hormone.

According to data available, children who are undergoing regular physical training are 4-8 cm taller than those who do not exercise. There are exercises suitable for children to grow tall.

Jumping; Typical jumping exercises include touching hand while jumping, rope-skipping, basketball, etc. The jumping exercise helps to extend the muscles and ligaments, prevent abnormal cartilage proliferation, and increase the bones of the spine and limbs.

Rope-skipping is a typical exercise that stimulates epiphyseal cartilage and promotes growth. A 15-minute rope-skipping exercise per day can increase the child’s height. Care should be taken to prevent landing with your heels when performing jumping exercises. If not, you may have a knee and hip injury.

Stretching exercise; Typical stretching exercises include swimming, suspension, gymnastics, etc.

Swimming is the most typical stretching exercise, allowing each part of the body to be fully stretched and hardened. Therefore, frequent swimming can elongate bone, which greatly contributes to growing tall.

Suspension elongates the height of children by extending the spine and promoting bone growth. Children of school age should be encouraged to actively exercise tension. Proper loading exercise

Typical exercise includes running while loading. Some people think that exercise such as running while loading is associated with greater loss of strength and small height for children. But in fact, some loading will make calcium in blood go into bone.

Therefore, proper loading exercise increases the density of bone mass, strengthen bone and muscle, and thus grow tall. It is important to adjust exercise so that children still in the developmental stage do not feel tired after exercise.

Researchers compared morning and evening BP-lowering medications. Research results shows that the evening use of antihypertensive leads a much lower night BP and a better maintenance of the diurnal rhythm. The study included 720 hypertensive patients.

They used amlodipine etc. for 12 weeks. Researchers divided the subjects into two use groups, one between 6:00 and 10:00, and the other between 18:00 and 22:00. Compared with the morning group, systolic and diastolic blood pressures were lower than 3 mm Hg and 1.4 mm Hg, respectively, in subjects in the evening group.

Researchers concluded that the use of antihypertensive before sleeping could lead to a well-controlled night BP and improved diurnal rhythm, while the effect of the mean BP did not decrease and the risk of developing hypertension did not increase.

Nourishing food for a healthy complexion

A beautiful face means a healthy complexion, which is an important element of beauty. A slight lack of complexion can be covered somewhat with make-up, but nothing can cover the faint complexion.

The poor complexion is due to the low iron content in the body. In women, the presence of menstrual bleeding leads to iron deficiency. Therefore, when the complexion is poor, adequate iron intake along with protein should be required.

Generally, iron-rich foods include seaweed, egg yolk, shellfish, fish, animal liver, soybean, sesame, buckwheat, etc.

How to Relax Fatigue

The accumulation and duration of fatigue are very harmful to the body.

Fatigue can be divided into acute and chronic fatigues.

Acute fatigue is caused by intensive consumption of mental and physical energy in a short time, while chronic fatigue occurs when fatigue accumulates in the long term. Bathing is the main solution of acute fatigue relief.

Bathing is a good way to recover from fatigue by increasing body metabolism and by allowing waste accumulated in the body to be discharged out of the body. The ideal solution in relieving chronic fatigue is moderately sweating out by walking, jogging, playing table tennis and volleyball and the likes.

When you drink a lot of water during bleeding

A healthy adult has 5 to 6 liters of blood. Loss of one-third to one-half of it is life-threatening. A person is very thirsty when s/he bleeds badly, because he s/has lost a lot of water with blood.

At this point, drinking a lot of water is life-threatening because of thirst. After bleeding, the water in the tissue is drawn into the blood to replenish the amount of blood lost and to ensure that the blood is fully circulated in the body.

When water is drunk, relatively more water than normal is absorbed into the blood. This causes water to penetrate into the erythrocytes and swell, and when it becomes more severe, erythrocytes burst.

The erythrocyte burst causes the function of carrying oxygen and carbon dioxide to cease, and life is thus at risk. Therefore, after bleeding badly, you should never drink much water and immediately seek the help of healthcare provider.

Excellence of the Korean National Marriage Custom

First of all, Korean people have kept a beautiful monogamic marriage custom. They have never broken marriage in whole course of their life. Korean people, who have cherished morality and obligation from ancient times, have regarded it as natural to help and understand each other once they marry and to build a family life together for all their lives. Divorce was condemned as an abnormal and immoral act in society. In the middle-aged Koguryo Kingdom, marriage was based on monogamy.

The Palhae, which inherited Koguryo Kingdom, had also defended the nonpermission of marriage of persons in the same family name and monogamy, and even they were reflected in the law. In the period of the feudal Joson dynasty, marriage was based on monogamy, and the custom of living together, once married, was dominant.

Therefore, in the period of the feudal Joson dynasty there was no specific divorce item in the code of law, and divorce was condemned as an immoral act. This custom has been traditionally observed since then. Next, there was no marriage between men of the same surname and the same family origin.

The custom of not marrying between men and women of the same surname and the same family origin was intended to prevent the consanguineous marriage. From olden times the civilized Korean nation has kept the custom of not marrying between men and women of the same surname and the same family origin, i.e., between relatives. The custom of the Korean nation’s custom of not marrying between men and women of the same surname and the same family origin has been preserved throughout the history of our country.

Due to the fact that the family origin has been reinforced, the marriage of people of the same surname and the different family origin was permitted. But the marriage of people of the same surname and same family origin was not permitted and it has been consolidated as a custom. Next, the union of young men and women was relatively free, and the belief and love between young men and women was more important in their marriage than the wealth or power of the men and women. Finally, they held the wedding ceremony informally.

Heritage Value and Limitations of Traditional Knowledge in Weather Prediction

The traditional knowledge of weather forecasting created by our people is a valuable legacy showing the excellence of our national culture. The heritage value of our people’s traditional knowledge concerning weather forecasting lies, above all, in the fact that it contains rich experience and knowledge created by our ancestors during their working life.

The traditional knowledge on weather forecasting reflects rich experience and knowledge created in various fields of production activities including farming, fishing, stockbreeding and sericulture of our ancestors from long ago.

The empirical knowledge accumulated during long-term farming accounts for the largest proportion in the traditional knowledge of weather forecasting. There are also the methods of weather forecasting accumulated in the course of our people’s fishing activities. Our people have also created a wealth of traditional knowledge concerning weather forecasting in other fields of the working life, including livestock farming, sericulture and beekeeping.

Our people have raised silkworms a great deal since ancient times, and have woven silk cloth from cocoons. During this long repetitive silkworm rearing process, our people realized that temperature, humidity and air conditions were very important in the management of silkworms and paid close attention to predicting weather.

They built the traditional knowledge with those experiences. As seen above, the knowledge of weather forecasting related to working activities is a legacy of national value as it helps us know in detail the diverse working customs of our ancestors. The heritage value of our people's traditional knowledge on weather forecasting lies in the fact that it shows the distinguished wisdom, talent and wisdom of our ancestors in the field of astronomical meteorological observation. Our ancestors had a special ability of predicting a long period’s weather.

They had used diverse signs and features in forecasting weather. The traditional knowledge of the weather forecast of our people has historical and periodical limitations as it has been formed and handed down in the past. In short, there are some limitations, among the traditional knowledge of weather forecasting, which are not well suited to the changed weather conditions of modern times and lack scientific evidence.

Military Dance in the Mural painting of Koguryo Kingdom

Military dances are based on martial arts training and military practices. Military dances were widely prevalent not only in the army camp of Koguryo Kingdom but also in the daily lives of the people including folk holidays. The Koguryo people regarded it as their duty to attach importance to military affairs and to educate martial arts themselves.

Their ardent patriotism and militaristic martial spirit were reflected in their lives and emotions. Dance naturally became a military dance which reflected the strong spirit of the anti-aggression struggle. The people of Koguryo danced military dance a lot, because the active physical exercises of the martial arts training process were conformed to the dance interpretation.

The Koguryo people’s military dances included a sword dance. The sword dance of the Koguryo people who had constantly developed their swordplay and martial arts, and competed with one another, is well evidenced by the mural paintings in the tombs of the Koguryo Kingdom. The murals of the Mausoleum of King Kogukwon and the Mausoleum of Phalkchong-ri vividly depict the dancer dancing with a sword. The sword dances depicted of the Mausoleum of King Kogukwon and the Mausoleum of Phalkchong-ri show that the soldiers had danced by their appearance.

The Koguryo people’s military dances also include the spear dance. The spear dance can be found in the murals of the Mausoleum of King Kogukwon and the two-pillar tombs. By virtue of the spear dances in the mural paintings in the tombs of the Koguryo Kingdom, we can find out the liberal military dances with the spears skilfully handled.

The Koguryo people’s military dances also include the bow dance. The bow and spear dance is depicted in the procession of the mural painting of the mausoleum of King Kogukwon with a sword. The hand martial arts are also painted in the mural painting of the mausoleum of King Kogukwon. This shows that the hand martial arts were also reflected in their dance movements. Although the paintings of the military dances of the Koguryo people were depicted in the graves of the ruling classes, but it can be seen that all of them were military dances of the people because they attired themselves in ordinary soldiers’ uniform.
