Life care:

In addition to taking supplements, we should pay more attention to the daily life of the elderly:

1. You should be a vegetarian, because vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins and minerals, and also rich in dietary fiber, which can not only prevent constipation, but also reduce the damage of harmful substances in feces to the intestinal wall and prevent intestinal cancer. In addition, most vegetables and fruits belong to alkaline foods, while generally high-protein foods belong to acidic foods. In human stomach, acidic reactions often occur after digesting foods such as meat, rice and wheat. This requires vegetables and fruits to neutralize and maintain the acid-base balance in the body. The ancients put forward the idea of "five dishes as stuffing" long ago, which shows that vegetables have the function of "filling" and "dredging" the digestive system. Therefore, to have a good appetite and a healthy digestive system, we must always eat more vegetables and fruits.

Although eating more meat will lead to many diseases, it doesn't mean that we can't eat any meat at all, because animal protein in livestock meat and poultry meat is an essential nutrient for human body. European scientists have recently concluded that people often eat red meat (beef, pork, mutton, etc. ): Eating red meat regularly will increase the risk of intestinal cancer. Therefore, while ensuring the acid-base balance, it is best to choose white meat such as fish, chickens and ducks. When eating foods rich in cholesterol, you must match some vegetables, fruits and beans to increase cholesterol excretion, reduce cholesterol synthesis and absorption in the body, and avoid atherosclerosis.

3. Starch can resist intestinal cancer in two ways: first, after starch enters the intestine, a series of reactions will help to increase feces, promote the excretion of colon and accelerate the excretion of carcinogenic metabolites; Secondly, starch can produce a large number of butyrate through the action of intestinal fermentation enzymes. Experiments show that butyrate is an effective cancer cell growth inhibitor, which can directly inhibit the proliferation of bacteria in the large intestine and prevent the generation of cancer-causing cells on the inner wall of the large intestine.

4. Whole grain foods roughed in supermarkets, such as cereal bread, should be the first choice. Pay attention to identification when buying cereal bread: if the first ingredient in the ingredient list is cereal, it means that its cereal content is really rich; If the cereal ingredient ranks behind other ingredients or sugar, it means that there are not many cereal ingredients in this food. Another way is to hold bread in your hand. If you feel that bread is dense and has obvious grains, it is bread rich in grains.

Besides cereal bread, rice made of noodles, bean jelly, pancakes, steamed dumplings and buckwheat is also a good choice. Cereal porridge rich in B vitamins and vitamin E, such as Laba porridge, Babaolian porridge and lotus leaf porridge, is more suitable for middle-aged and elderly people.
