I've heard that people in the ancient times lived to be 100 years old in the spring and Autumn period (1), but their movements were not declining. Today's people are half a hundred years old and all their actions are declining. In different times, people will lose it (2)? Qibo said to him: in ancient times, those who knew it were those who practiced Yin and Yang (3) and Shu Shu Shu (4), who lived in a regular way and did not work in vain (5), so they were able to form all gods (6), and go to the end of their lives (7) and spend 100 years. Today's people are not like this. They take wine as their pulp (8), delusion as their constant, drunkenness as their room, desire to exhaust their essence, and consumption (9) as their essence. They don't know how to hold it full. From time to time, they keep their mind fast and against life (11). Their daily life is not festive, so half a hundred of them decline. (Suwen, ancient naive theory)

[introduction]
By comparing the different life span of ancient and modern people, this paper expounds the importance of health preservation and puts forward five health preservation principles.
The significance of health preservation: in ancient times, people lived more than 100 years, because they knew the way of health preservation, could adapt to the changing laws of yin and Yang in nature, mastered various health preservation methods, and kept the harmony between body and spirit; but now, people are premature, because they don't know the way of health preservation, drunk, and exhausted, and lack of real resources. Through comparison, the author answers the question put forward by the Yellow Emperor, that is, the life span of people is not different in different times, but in different people's understanding and attitude towards health preservation. Health preservation rules: one is in Yin and Yang, that is to say, health preservation should follow the law of yin and Yang change in nature; two is in Shu Shu Shu, that is to say, proper use of health preservation methods to exercise the body; three foods and drinks should be controlled; four daily routines should be regular; five labors should not violate the regularity. Only by mastering the way of life maintenance and maintaining the harmony between the form and the spirit can we "live to the end of the day, and live to the end of one hundred years". These health care methods are still of practical value to today's health care
