And five foods to avoid before going to bed: caffeine; Second, spicy food; Third, greasy food; Fourth, food with satiety; 5. alcohol.
Eating supper often does more harm than good, and four of them are very harmful to health:
Hazard 1: it is easy to produce stones.
The peak of calcium excretion is usually 4-5 hours after eating. If you eat dinner too late, when the peak of calcium excretion comes, people have gone to bed and fallen asleep, so urine will stay in the urinary tract such as ureter, bladder and urethra, and cannot be excreted in time, resulting in an increase in calcium in urine, which is easy to deposit and form small crystals. Over time, urine will gradually expand to form stones.
I often like to eat dinner. If I eat high-fat and high-protein food, it is easy to make the blood lipid in the human body suddenly rise.
Hazard 2: The nutrition of supper is hard to consume.
Everyone had a good snack. Although rich in nutrition, it also exposes another problem, that is, how to consume nutrition. According to scientific research reports, eating a lot of high-protein foods such as meat, eggs and milk at midnight will increase the amount of calcium in urine. On the one hand, it will reduce the storage of calcium in the body and induce rickets in children, myopia in adolescents and osteoporosis in middle-aged and elderly people. On the other hand, high calcium concentration in urine will greatly increase the possibility of urinary calculi. Moreover, if protein is ingested too much, it will stay in the intestine if it is not absorbed by the human body, and it will deteriorate to produce toxins such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, which will stimulate the intestinal wall and induce cancer. Coupled with drinking, it is easier to become attached to "alcoholic fatty liver".
Hazard 3: Cholesterol is significantly increased.
I often like to eat dinner. If I eat high-fat and high-protein food, it is easy to make the blood lipid in the human body suddenly rise. Human blood tends to maintain a high fat content at night. Eating too much at night, or eating frequently and repeatedly, will lead to a significant increase in blood cholesterol synthesized by the liver and stimulate the liver to produce more low-density lipoprotein. Carrying too much cholesterol to the arterial wall (including penile artery) has also become one of the causes of atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease and impotence.
At the same time, because of the long-term satiety after supper, it will repeatedly stimulate islets and increase insulin secretion. Over time, it will cause the function of β cells to secrete insulin to decline, or even decline ahead of schedule, resulting in diabetes. These diseases will affect sexual function and lead to a decline in sexual ability.
Hazard 4: induce insomnia:
Overeating a midnight snack will make your stomach swell and put pressure on the surrounding organs. After meals, the intense work of the stomach, intestine, liver, gallbladder, pancreas and other organs will send information to the brain, which will cause the brain to be active and spread to other parts of the cerebral cortex.
Therefore, the best way to maintain health is not to eat supper or eat less supper. If you really need to supplement nutrition at night, the best choice is carbohydrates, that is, starch and sugar, such as a piece of bread, a glass of milk or light porridge. Because this kind of food can indirectly improve the chemical reaction of the brain, make the body secrete insulin, thus playing a role in calming the nerves, especially beneficial to insomnia.
