Many people who have been away all the year round come home, and their parents and elders always say at the dinner table: eat more, not too much. This is a love of parents for their children. They think that nutrition comes from vegetables and meat. Rice only has the function of satiety, but it has no nutrition. But is it really good for your health to eat more vegetables and less? Let me tell you from four angles.

1, from the perspective of health and disease.

If people eat dishes rich in fat, protein and less fiber for a long time, it is easy to do harm to their health. Many people have a cognition that vegetables contain substances beneficial to the human body, and vegetables are not high-fat foods, so eating more will not be bad for the health, but this idea is actually wrong. Because many vegetables can be eaten with oil, that is to say, vegetables can only be eaten with a lot of edible oil. If people eat too many of these dishes, it will easily lead to cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure and obesity.

2. As far as the material structure of human body is concerned.

Under normal circumstances, human beings eat staple foods such as rice and pasta every day. The main ingredients of these staple foods are carbohydrates. In this way, carbohydrates are not only economical, but also can be directly converted into nutrients and calories. In addition, because the human body and organs are almost composed of water, and carbohydrates are the main source of water in the body, the importance of eating staple foods such as rice to human health can be imagined.

3. In terms of eating habits.

Staple foods such as rice are usually tasteless. In addition, rice itself has a faint aroma. This is why people will never get tired of eating rice all their lives, but if they eat big fish and meat, they will feel tired and don't want to eat it for just a few days. Dishes such as big fish and big meat are not only rich in color, flavor and oil. Once the body ingests too much, the stomach and intestines will unconsciously produce great stimulation and disgust. So it is unreasonable to eat too many greasy dishes, because it is easy to cause a very heavy burden on the stomach in the body.

4. As far as human digestion is concerned.

From the point of view of reasonable diet, more than half of the total heat energy needed by human beings in a day comes from carbohydrates. Moreover, compared with dishes such as big fish and big meat, the human body has stronger digestion ability for staple foods such as rice. Simply put, rice is more easily digested and utilized by the stomach. In addition, rice also contains essential nutrients that are not found in other dishes. Therefore, in terms of digestion, it is also incorrect to eat more vegetables and less meat.

So no matter from which angle, it is unreasonable to eat more vegetables and eat less. People still have to eat staple foods such as rice.
