High sugar and high oil food
The Dietary Guidelines for China Residents pointed out that a normal adult should not consume more than 50 grams of sugar and 30 grams of oil every day, but many people, especially the elderly, did not notice this.
We all know that eating too much sugar will make you fat, not to mention the elderly with low metabolic capacity. Eating too much sugar will not only lead to obesity, but also lead to various diseases of the elderly, such as hypertension, fatty liver or diabetes. Some foods, such as hawthorn slices, tomato sauce and pork breast, are not sweet to eat, but contain a lot of sugar. Collagen cells in the body will age because of sugar, and then wrinkles will appear on the skin, which will also lead to age spots.
Some foods will cause trans fatty acids after high temperature. Trans fatty acids are carcinogens and will also accelerate the aging of body cells. The elderly themselves are aging, so we should avoid eating foods high in sugar and oil. Especially barbecue and frying, and oil that is used repeatedly.
Preserved food
The existence of pickled food is still very common in life, such as pickles at ordinary times, salted fish and fresh meat on holidays, and salty large intestine. This is because the food is delicious and you still eat it. Old people used to lead a hard life. Sometimes they have no fresh vegetables to eat and no refrigerator. Then they will preserve it for a longer time by pickling, so they have the habit of eating pickled food.
However, a lot of salt will be put into pickled food when it is made. If eaten for a long time, it will lead to high salt content in the body, and it will also lead to a decrease in water content in blood vessels, which will lead to an increase in blood pressure. Many diseases will "depend" on the body, such as kidney disease, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction and heart failure. It contains a lot of nitrite, although it will not cause cancer, but it will be affected by the stomach environment in the human body and then produce carcinogens, which may lead to gastric cancer. The occurrence of intestinal cancer or esophageal cancer. The loss of calcium in the bones of the elderly will lead to osteoporosis, so the elderly should not eat for a long time, drink more water when eating, and dilute the salt.
Raw food and alcohol and tobacco
Old people's digestive ability is inferior to that of young people. If you don't pay attention to your diet, it will lead to abdominal pain and diarrhea, especially if you don't eat some inedible foods, such as raw food. Nowadays, the calories of raw food are not low, such as sashimi and raw beef. These foods are undercooked, and the restaurant won't show you one by one with a microscope. If bacteria invade the elderly, it will affect the gastrointestinal health, damage the gastric mucosa and lead to gastrointestinal diseases.
Many elderly people suffer from chronic diseases of the elderly. There is a big reason for this. Although relieved, it hurts the body. The respiratory system will become "fragile" under the influence of alcohol and tobacco. Alcohol can stimulate the stomach and affect the health of the digestive system.
These foods should be avoided after the age of 50, and they should not be eaten until they are eaten. Many parents don't want to prevent "getting into trouble" and give trouble to their children who are working hard for their families and children. Therefore, they should take good care of themselves.
A light diet doesn't mean you can't eat meat, sugar or anything. That's not a light diet, it's abstinence. The first thing mentioned above is to avoid high salt, high sugar, high oil and pickled food. The daily staple food should not add up to more than 300g. Meat and vegetables should be well matched in the daily diet to increase protein's intake, such as eggs, muscle, beef and mutton or fish and shrimp. Vegetables can eat more dark green vegetables, such as broccoli, amaranth or spinach. Some fruits are high in sugar, such as bananas, grapes and watermelons. Cooking can be steamed, stewed or stuffy to avoid high oil. Keep 7 minutes full for each meal, and chew slowly. It is recommended to chew about 30 times per meal. If the mouth is not good, don't worry, avoid hard food, drink some yogurt after meals, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, which is conducive to food absorption.
