Under normal circumstances, the stomach and teeth of the elderly are not very good, so the diet of the elderly is very particular, so what is better for the elderly to eat on the Double Ninth Festival? Let's take a closer look!

What the elderly eat on the Double Ninth Festival to adjust the diet balance is also the foundation of disease prevention and health care. In autumn, the elderly should give priority to flat supplement, and try to eat more food, such as corn, pork, lily, etc., which is the best diet. Dry is autumn, which is easy to hurt and consume body fluids. Therefore, the elderly can be properly moistened, that is, nourishing yin and promoting fluid production and moistening the lungs. Eat less spicy onions, ginger, garlic, peppers, etc. Eat more sour fruits, vegetables and food to nourish the liver.

The Double Ninth Festival is approaching. Drinking chrysanthemum wine, eating mutton noodles and eating flower cakes are the three major dietary customs of the Double Ninth Festival.

Chongyang wants to drink "chrysanthemum wine", which is homophonic with "Jiujiu" and "wine", so it is deduced that Jiujiu wants to drink chrysanthemum wine.

The second is to eat mutton noodles. "Sheep" and "Yang" are homophonic, which should be the code name of Chongyang. If you want to eat white flour, "white" means "100" minus the top "1", which means that 100 minus 1 is 99, in line with the code name of "99". The birthday of a 99-year-old man in Beijing is called "Bai Shou". Wealthy families can hold mutton-based banquets on the same day, such as fried, roasted, rinsed and even whole sheep seats. Autumn is the fattest season for sheep, and mutton is warm and can keep out the cold.

The third is to eat flower cakes. Respect the elderly on the Double Ninth Festival and climb high to avoid disasters. "Gao" and "Gao" are homophonic, and they also mean "step by step" and "long life", so "Chongyang Flower Cake" has become a popular holiday food.

Drink more porridge. Physicians and health-preserving families in past dynasties have admired porridge for the elderly. "Diet is interesting" says: "Porridge is the first nourishing picture in the world." Porridge is easy to digest and absorb, and can harmonize stomach, strengthen spleen, clear lung and moisten lower body. Cao Cisheng, a health care practitioner in the Qing Dynasty, said: "When people are old, they can enjoy a long life even if they eat porridge." In this season, drinking porridge can not only reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract of the elderly, but also help the digestion of the elderly. Some products that nourish the stomach and strengthen the spleen, nourish yin and moisten dryness can be added to the porridge, which can moisten the lungs and moisten dryness.

Millet is the best tonic for the elderly. Old people like millet best and regard it as the best tonic. Sick old people often use millet to nourish their bodies. Chinese medicine believes that millet benefits the five internal organs, thickens the stomach, tonifies the body fluid and strengthens the bones and muscles. A famous doctor in Qing Dynasty said: "Millet is the most nourishing. Rice oil when cooking rice porridge is better than ginseng chicken soup. " Millet porridge is a good health porridge.

For the elderly with poor respiratory system, the newly listed Sydney in Huang Chengcheng is a very good tonic. You can boil it into Sydney porridge and drink a bowl every night. Except Sydney, such as Peking, Pak Lei, Yali, etc., which are listed in autumn, are all good materials for making pear porridge, with the best effect and low price. This kind of porridge is also very simple to make. Put the japonica rice in a pot and cook until it is 70-80% cooked, then cut the washed Sydney into pieces together with the skin and cook it in porridge for about ten minutes. If possible, you can also add lily to the porridge. Lily can nourish yin and moisten the lungs, and 3 ~ 5g is enough.

Drink more soup. Drinking more soup for the elderly can strengthen the body and prolong life. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "man corresponds to heaven and earth", which means that the physiological mechanism of human body should closely correspond to the changes of climate in four seasons. Soup is one of the most nutritious and digestible foods that people eat.

Old people drink more soup, which not only helps to absorb nutrients, but also plays a role in regulating the stomach. Pay attention to drink more bone soup, fracture, boil some bone soup, and replenish marrow with marrow. This is the theory of Chinese medicine.

Developing the habit of drinking soup before meals can also reduce the occurrence of esophagitis and gastritis. Of course, drinking soup before meals is not the better. Under normal circumstances, it is advisable to use half a bowl of soup before lunch and dinner, and more before breakfast, because after a night's sleep, the human body loses more water. It is better to have soup about 20 minutes before meals. You can also drink soup slowly and in small quantities, but don't "binge drink".

Eating more fish, cooking fish dishes three times a week or eating 30 grams of fish every day can reduce the risk of stroke by 50%. Medical research has proved that Japanese and Eskimos who often eat fish suffer from cardiovascular diseases in a much smaller proportion than those who seldom eat fish.

Marine fish contains high zinc, which belongs to animal food and is easily absorbed and utilized by human body. For the elderly, marine fish is rich in protein, easy to digest, and rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which is beneficial to lowering blood lipid and preventing cardiovascular diseases. In addition to high zinc content, marine fish also contains more trace elements such as vitamin A, vitamin D, calcium, manganese, iodine and selenium than meat, which is beneficial to the nutritional balance of the elderly.

It is recommended that the elderly eat marine fish once or twice a week, about 100g each time. Bass, yellow croaker and Spanish mackerel are all very good. Tuna is a carnivorous fish, so eat as little as possible. Steaming and stewing are suitable for the elderly to eat marine fish, which can ensure that the nutrition in the fish is not easy to lose and tastes delicious. It must be washed before eating to remove scales, gills and internal organs. Scaleless fish can scrape off the sludge from the epidermis with a knife, because these parts are often the gathering places of pollutants in marine fish.

The dietary principle of the elderly is the Double Ninth Festival, also known as the Festival for the Elderly. Traditionally, the Chinese people worship their ancestors and carry out activities to respect the elderly on the Double Ninth Festival. Autumn wind comes once a year, and the weather turns cold. In order to keep the elderly healthy, the autumn diet precautions are specially explained for the elderly.

The general principle of autumn diet conditioning for the elderly who are suitable for moistening dryness is: suitable for moistening dryness. First of all, we should follow the principle of "nourishing yin in autumn and winter" put forward in Huangdi Neijing, that is to say, we should eat a diet that nourishes yin and moistens dryness to prevent autumn dryness from damaging yin. For example, eat some soft foods, such as tremella, sugar cane, pear, sesame, bird's nest, lotus root, glutinous rice, japonica rice, honey, loquat and dairy products. Benefiting the stomach and promoting the production of body fluid. Second, the autumn diet should be "less spicy and more sour". The so-called "less spicy" means eating less spicy food. This is because the lungs are golden, ventilated in autumn and full of lung qi in autumn. Eating less pungent taste is to prevent lung qi from overflowing; Chinese medicine believes that Jin Kemu, that is, excessive lung qi will damage the function of the liver, so it is necessary to "increase acid" in autumn to increase the function of the liver and resist the invasion of excessive lung qi. According to this principle of TCM nutrition, we must eat less spicy onions, ginger, garlic, leeks and peppers in autumn, and eat more sour fruits and vegetables, such as apples, grapes, hawthorn, pineapples, grapefruit and lemons. In autumn, dryness hurts easily. In addition to properly supplementing some vitamins, people who do have symptoms of yin injury such as dry mouth, dry throat and less expectoration can take Adenophora adenophora, Ophiopogon japonicus, Lily, almond and Fritillaria cirrhosa. Appropriate, it has a good effect on relieving autumn dryness of the elderly.

Fruits and vegetables should be fresh and colorful, rich in vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber. Fruits are also rich in organic acids, which can stimulate appetite and maintain the acid-base balance of body fluids.

The number is small, and if you want to be healthy, you have to be hungry and cold. Old people should eat a variety of foods, but the amount of each food should not be too much, and each meal should be seven or eight points full.

High quality does not mean high price. For example, bean products, eggs and milk are all high-quality foods, and the elderly should eat them often. Also pay attention to eating more fish and less meat. The main sources of sugar are staple food and fruits and vegetables. Try to reduce the consumption of refined sugar such as white sugar, brown sugar and granulated sugar.

Food should be mixed. No food can contain all kinds of nutrients needed by human body. Therefore, we should eat cereals, fruits and vegetables, bacteria and algae every day, and pay attention to the collocation of meat and vegetables, thickness, color, taste and dryness.

The texture should be soft. Old people can't digest and absorb food well. Therefore, the texture of food should be soft and rotten, and cooking methods such as steaming, boiling, stewing and stewing can be used. Choose foods with coarse fiber that are not suitable for chewing, such as fish with short fiber and tender meat; Milk, eggs and bean products are the best choices.

The diet should be light, the dishes should be light and the taste should be heavy. It is recommended that the daily salt content should not exceed 6 grams. It is suggested that the daily food composition of the elderly is: cereal 150-250g, fish and shrimp lean meat 100g, beans and their products 50g, fresh vegetables 300g, fresh fruits 250g, milk 250g, edible oil 30g, salt 6g and sugar 25g. Drink less and drink more water.

Chewing slowly is good for digestion and absorption. Pay more attention, especially when eating fish. Fish is easy to chew, digest and absorb because of its tender meat. Protein content is high; Low fat content and other advantages, it is the first choice food for the elderly. However, due to the problem of fishbone, the consumption of many elderly people is limited. To solve this problem, we must first choose fish with fewer fishbones. When eating fish, it is best not to eat it with rice and steamed bread at the same time.

If the food is fragrant, the appetite of the elderly will be reduced. Pay more attention to the preparation of food, and pay attention to the collocation of color, fragrance, taste and shape. In addition, an elegant, quiet and tidy dining environment; Dining in groups or groups can improve the elderly's interest in eating.

Drink more water. Old people are not as sensitive to thirst as young people. Therefore, to consciously drink more water, you can choose light tea or boiled water. Never wait until you are thirsty, lest you be short of water. Lack of water can lead to constipation and metabolic disorder in the elderly.

The best digestion and absorption process of food with suitable temperature is carried out at a temperature close to body temperature. Old people have poor resistance to cold. Once they eat cold and hard food, it will affect digestion and absorption, and even cause intestinal diseases. Therefore, the food for the elderly is mainly warm.
