The seasoning is less salty and less spicy. It is suggested that the daily salt intake of adults should not exceed 6 grams. When cooking daily, you can add salt when the dish is almost out of the pot, which not only ensures the taste but also reduces the amount of salt. In addition to salt, fresh products such as monosodium glutamate and chicken essence, as well as all salty condiments such as soy sauce and bean paste also contain a lot of sodium, so eat less. Eating spicy food properly can increase appetite, but being too spicy can easily stimulate the digestive system, causing people to get angry, oral ulcers, constipation and other problems, affecting metabolism.
Use a small amount of oil. A light diet needs less oil and more kinds. Peanut oil, rice bran oil, tea seed oil, low erucic acid rapeseed oil, refined olive oil, sunflower seed oil, soybean oil, etc. It is best to eat it regularly, with 25~30 grams of edible oil per day.
Cooking is usually done by steaming. Fried, stewed, steamed, boiled, etc. Often used to maximize the original flavor and nutrition of food. You should also learn how to mix various ingredients. For example, it is best to cook meat with low-fat and high-fiber bacteria and algae ingredients, which can reduce the absorption of fat and cholesterol in the body.
Eating meat is "white" and "thin" Fat meat is high in fat content, which easily affects cardiovascular and cerebrovascular health. Should give priority to lean meat, less pork belly. Compared with livestock meat, white meat such as fish and poultry has relatively low fat content and high unsaturated fatty acid content, especially fish, which plays an important role in preventing dyslipidemia and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, people with such diseases should first choose fish and poultry. Need to be reminded that chicken and duck meat should be peeled, otherwise it will increase fat intake.
Control sugar intake. Broadly speaking, a light diet also includes eating less high-sugar foods. It is suggested that the daily intake of added sugar should be controlled below 50 grams, preferably not more than 25 grams. The added sugar includes white sugar, rock sugar and brown sugar, as well as fructose, glucose and fructose syrup in desserts and sugary drinks, which will stimulate the rise of insulin level, accelerate fat synthesis and endanger health.
In fact, a light diet is not necessarily to lose weight. Keeping a good habit of light diet for a long time is also very beneficial to our health.
