Nuts such as walnuts, pine nuts, pistachios and peanuts are the first choice for healthy snacks. Nuts are the essence of plants, which are rich in nutrients such as protein, minerals, vitamins, various essential fatty acids and trace elements, and are very beneficial to human health. American Time magazine once listed nuts as one of the top ten nutritious foods for modern people.
It should be reminded that the fat content of nuts is high, and the Nutrition Society of China recommends that you should not eat more than one or two nuts per week to avoid obesity due to excessive calorie intake.
Milk Milk is rich in calcium, vitamins and a variety of essential amino acids. If you don't eat breakfast, drinking a bag of breakfast milk with cereal or cereal milk is the best choice. Because drinking milk on an empty stomach is not conducive to the digestion and absorption of nutrients, it is best to mix it with some staple foods, but it is not convenient to set a table of food in the office, so this method of mixing cereals and whole grains with milk just meets the needs of people's fast-paced life.
Fruits and fruits are rich in vitamins, minerals and cellulose, and the breakfast combination of "fruit+milk" is better than nothing. "However, some fruits are not suitable for eating on an empty stomach. For example, bananas are rich in potassium and magnesium. Eating bananas on an empty stomach will increase the magnesium content in the blood and inhibit the cardiovascular system. In addition, tomatoes contain pectin, persimmon gum and soluble astringents. If eaten on an empty stomach, they will combine with gastric acid, increase the pressure in the stomach and cause flatulence. " Experts said.
Many people think that eating fruit is very troublesome, so they choose to eat dried fruit or preserved fruit, which is not recognized by nutrition experts. Fruits are rich in water-soluble vitamins, which will be destroyed by high-temperature baking and other processing processes, and the active nutrients in cells will be lost. Moreover, the sugar content of dried fruits and preserved fruits is generally high and difficult to digest, which will affect people's intake of dinner. In this regard, experts stressed: "Fruit products can't replace fresh fruits."
Vegetables such as cucumbers and tomatoes are also healthy snacks.
