1, it should be a light diet
Limit the intake of salt, and the amount of salt per day is below 6 grams. Because menopause is prone to hypertension and arteriosclerosis, and salt contains a lot of sodium ions, eating too much salt will increase the burden on the heart and increase the blood viscosity, thus raising blood pressure.
2, sugar should not eat more.
Eating too much sugar can lead to obesity. You can eat more complex carbohydrates, such as starch and millet.
3. Low-fat diet
Limit foods with high fat and cholesterol in animals, such as egg yolk, brain marrow, animal internal organs, etc. It is best to eat vegetable oil, such as corn oil, soybean oil and peanut oil.
4, the right amount of protein
With the degeneration of gonads in menopause, other tissues and organs also gradually degenerate. Therefore, we should choose high-quality protein in our diet, such as milk, eggs, lean meat, fish, poultry and bean products.
5. Eat more fresh green vegetables and fruits.
In particular, vegetables and fruits rich in carotene, inorganic salts and cellulose, such as Chinese cabbage, celery, jujube and hawthorn, can increase the toughness of blood vessels, promote the elimination of blood cholesterol and prevent atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
