How to pay attention to diet after 70 years old?
As the saying goes, people are rare until they are 70 years old, but in today's society, the living standard is getting better and better, and the medical level is getting higher and higher. It is not uncommon for people to live to 80 years old. At present, most elderly people still pay great attention to the quality of life and daily health care. They are usually interested in health knowledge and regularly arrange three meals a day. I see many old people pay great attention to the reasonable collocation of breakfast, such as drinking tea before eating breakfast. There is an old man next to her. Her breakfast includes eggs, oats, milk, medlar and American ginseng slices. Some cupcakes can be kept for decades. She is in good health. I have observed some long-lived old people around me.

They don't always eat light vegetarian dishes when they are old. They often eat fish and pigeons to increase protein and delay muscle decline. The physiological function of people in their seventies will decline, so there are many places to pay attention to in diet, such as digestive system, basic metabolism and physical condition. If you are sick, you will have some different diets, but you must reduce the total energy in the same place. You should pay attention to eating some digestible foods in your diet to reduce the burden on your digestive system. The total energy intake of the elderly at different ages is also different.

The total energy intake of the elderly aged 60-69 should be reduced by 10%, the total energy intake of the elderly aged 70-79 should be reduced by 15%, and the total energy intake of the elderly aged over 80 should be reduced by 33%. However, it should be noted that energy needs to be reduced, but diet should not be less, and balance and diversity should be paid attention to, especially calcium. Foods rich in vitamin C, protein and calcium should be taken in the diet, so as to better prevent osteoporosis. Controlling the total energy itself helps to control weight and prevent some cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but in order to achieve better health goals, we need to eat a variety of foods. According to the Dietary Guide for China Residents, we need to eat 12 foods every day and 25 foods every week.

Specific diet, animal food must be eaten, but attention should be paid to controlling the amount, especially fat. I especially like eating fat meat. It is recommended to eat with vegetables, especially green leafy vegetables and soybeans. Among them, green leafy vegetables are rich in phytosterol, which helps to reduce cholesterol absorption and cholesterol, while soy foods are rich in dietary fiber, which also helps to reduce cholesterol and improve vascular health. In addition, daily milk, eggs, fruits, nuts, seafood, staple food, vegetables and so on. The staple food can be decided whether to eat coarse grains according to different people's digestive systems.
