1, antiallergic food
When the weather gets warmer, the floating dust, pollen and bacteria in the air drift around with the wind, which is easy to make people allergic to skin and cause seasonal allergies. In this regard, the Rodale website in the United States recommended several kinds of anti-allergic foods to make everyone spend a comfortable spring.
Broccoli, as a leader in cruciferous ingredients, can prevent nasal congestion, and its rich vitamin C is also an expert in relieving allergic symptoms. The researchers found that taking 500 mg of vitamin C every day can effectively inhibit allergic symptoms, while 240 g of raw broccoli contains 80 mg of vitamin C. In addition, citrus fruits are also a good choice, such as oranges, grapefruit and lemons. For example, a big orange contains nearly 100 mg of vitamin C.
Quercetin contained in onion and garlic is another powerful weapon against allergy, and its effect is similar to that of antiallergic drugs. In addition, apples also contain this substance, which can be eaten in moderation.
Celery is also an ideal anti-allergic food, because it can effectively inhibit the secretion of substances that can cause allergies. At the same time, celery also has diuretic effect, so when eating it, you should decide the dosage according to your physical condition. People with deficiency of spleen and stomach should not eat it every day.
If you are allergic, you can also drink a health soup. Dr. James Duke, a plant expert, recommended an antiallergic soup: chop an onion and a clove of garlic and cook them together. After boiling for 5 minutes, add 200 grams of nettle leaves and 240 grams of celery stalks, continue to cook for 3- 10 minutes, and then season with cooking wine, salt, black pepper or red pepper.
2, the wrong understanding of weight loss
Error 1: Try to hold back your favorite food.
Completely forcing yourself to give up favorite foods, such as chocolate and braised pork, often makes them more attractive. Once frustrated or in a bad mood, you will indulge yourself. In this way, your weight will pick up.
Suggestion: moderately but not forcibly control your desires. Do you really want ice cream? Give yourself a spoonful of chocolate? Give yourself a small piece. However, don't indulge your desires.
Mistake 2: "insulation" from fat
Fat is the twin brother of obesity, but in the process of losing weight, fat is not always negative. Fatty foods are resistant to digestion and hunger, and can reduce the intake of starchy foods and snacks after eating.
Suggestion: Corn oil and olive oil containing monounsaturated fatty acids can reduce the low-density protein and are ideal edible oils for dieters.
Mistake 3: Always pay attention to your weight.
Taking the change of weight as the only criterion to judge the success of losing weight will bring great mental pressure to yourself. You know, during the day, people's weight will change a little because of the different water content. If you weigh yourself from time to time, your mood will be sad and happy with the ups and downs of your weight, which will easily lead you into a strange circle of emotional eating.
Suggestion: When the weight is invisible, it is enough to weigh yourself once a week. So how soon can you lose weight? Experts believe that it is good to lose 200 grams to 500 grams a week.
Mistake 4: Pursue the goal blindly and don't give yourself any reward.
It is not easy to change long-standing living habits. When you reach some stage goals, such as losing 2 kilograms, you can celebrate yourself, go to a movie, get a facial or buy some jewelry, but don't eat a big meal to celebrate.
Suggestion: Don't aim at losing weight 10% or more, otherwise it will bring you great pressure. The phased weight loss goal is generally 5%~8% of the body weight, which is easier to achieve and makes you more confident.
Mistake 5: drastically reduce calorie intake.
Dieters consume too few calories, which will reduce the metabolic rate of Xincheng and consume not much calories. The result is that you are starving, and you may only consume 700 kilocalories a day, which is far lower than your original calorie consumption of several kilocalories a day.
Suggestion: you can reduce your calorie intake a little every day, such as 100 calories, so that you will basically maintain normal metabolism and gradually lose weight in new cities.
Mistake 6: Don't eat nutritious food
The reason why some people are obese is not the accumulation of single nutrition, but the lack of nutrients that can convert fat into energy, such as vitamin B2, vitamin B6 and some trace elements. Foods rich in these nutrients are often milk, bean products, peanuts, eggs, animal livers and meat that dieters don't want to care about.
Suggestion: If you don't eat a lot of high-fat and high-sugar foods, but you are still overweight, then you should monitor whether your diet lacks some vitamins and trace elements, which can convert food into energy, and make corresponding supplements and food structure adjustments.
Mistake 7: Too much faith in healthy food.
Just because food is low in sugar or sugar-free doesn't mean it doesn't contain calories. Low-fat products usually have a high sugar content. As far as calories are concerned, low-fat foods are the same as the same amount of high-fat foods. Sugar-free foods can contain no sucrose, but other sugars, such as sugar, honey, syrup and other high-calorie substances.
Suggestion: Pay attention to baked goods, such as biscuits, which are usually claimed to be low-calorie foods, but often contain more calories than those indicated on the label. Even low-calorie healthy food does not mean that you can enjoy it at will.
