Besides rowing dragon boats, the best occasion for the Dragon Boat Festival is "eating zongzi". The Taipei Municipal Health Bureau reminded that most of the dumplings sold in the market are made of glutinous rice, using high-fat pork belly ingredients, which not only have less fiber content, but also have 500 to 600 calories. For example, a person weighing 50 kilograms needs to walk 120 minutes (about 30 laps of the playground) to consume calories.
Healthy glutinous rice balls are delicious and less burdensome.
Therefore, the nutritionist of Taipei United Hospital has developed "healthy miscellaneous grains Zongzi", which is rich in dietary fiber, phytochemicals and nutrients by adding whole grains such as red quinoa, black rice, coix seed and brown rice. It is suggested that proper replacement of glutinous rice can not only improve the problems of indigestion and flatulence of glutinous rice, but also increase the intake of aroma and dietary fiber. Each glutinous rice has only about 250 calories, which is half of the rice dumplings sold in the market.
Less stuffing, more fat, more vegetables, less sauce and less salt.
Besides, jiaozi should put less fat and more vegetables. You can choose pork tenderloin, chicken breast, edamame, black beans, soybeans and other ingredients and bean products such as dried beans and dried silk to replace high-fat meat. Mushrooms, bamboo shoots, Pleurotus eryngii and other vegetables can also be added to increase the intake of dietary fiber.
However, the rice dumplings sold in the market are similar to Otawa oil rice. The glutinous rice is first fried with soy sauce, monosodium glutamate, salt and other seasonings, and the taste is partial. When eating zongzi, it is easy to increase the burden on the body if you mix it with sweet and spicy sauce, tomato sauce and other sauces. It is suggested to eat dipping sauce properly, use fresh ingredients such as mushrooms, ginger and onions, and add peppers to zongzi to increase aroma, reduce salt and improve health.
Use seasonal fruits and vegetables to help digestion, moderate intake+exercise is not afraid of obesity.
The main ingredients of zongzi are glutinous rice and meat. When eating delicious zongzi, you should eat it with seasonal vegetables (1 bowl per meal) and 1 fist fruit to help digestion and absorption. In addition, in hot summer, if you want to eat zongzi with drinks, it is recommended to choose unsweetened drinks, such as green tea, black tea and scented tea.
The Taipei Municipal Health Bureau * * * appeals that no matter what flavor of zongzi is, it should be eaten in moderation, with proper exercise to reduce the extra calories in the holiday diet.
