Because of the high cholesterol content in animal viscera, people of all ages should not eat more, and for the elderly, breakfast is especially unfavorable. Most elderly people have hyperlipidemia. If they eat too much pig liver, kidney flower, pig intestines, husband and wife lung slices and other animal offal, including braised pork, which is popular among old Beijingers, their serum cholesterol will be higher, which will promote the occurrence or aggravation of arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. Similarly, egg yolk with high cholesterol should not be eaten at breakfast.

It is recommended to eat more vegetables for breakfast. The rich fiber in vegetables can purify the intestines, promote absorption, reduce constipation and provide rich nutrients and vitamins needed by the human body.
