Dietary health standards for the elderly in Japan
According to a recent survey by the World Health Organization, the average life expectancy of Japanese people is longer than that of other countries in the world. In other words, Japanese people live longer than people in other countries. And we know that the reason why Japanese people can live so long is largely because of their dietary characteristics. The main feature of Japanese diet is that the daily diet is light, and breakfast and health care are emphasized.

First, pay attention to breakfast In China, a large number of people often go to bed late and get up late, so they seldom eat breakfast. However, Japanese and China people have completely different eating habits. Japanese insist on getting up early for breakfast every day. They think breakfast is the most important meal in a day. So the breakfast they eat is also very particular. In China, southerners like porridge and fried dough sticks for breakfast, while northerners like noodles and bread. Japanese breakfast is rich in variety and nutrition. In general, Japanese breakfast usually involves more than ten kinds of ingredients, which is much richer than breakfast in China.

Second, the diet is light. A large number of people in China like to eat and drink in their daily lives, while most Japanese people have a light diet in their daily lives. In the eyes of most Japanese, their diet structure is mainly carbohydrates. Their carbohydrates are not obtained from some drinks or other processed products, but more from some vegetables, fruits and whole grains in daily life. In addition, Japanese people seldom eat a single food in their daily life. They eat many kinds of food every day. Generally speaking, Japanese people eat more than 30 kinds of food every day.

Third, pay attention to exercise. In addition to paying more attention to nutrition and health care in diet, Japanese people often exercise in their daily lives to ensure that they have a strong body.
