First, is cooking with lard good for your health?
In our daily cognition, lard has a high fat content and is easy to get fat, which is very bad for the body. However, nutrition experts believe that proper use of lard is good for our health: 1. Lard has a unique flavor, and the fried dishes have a meat flavor, which can enhance people's appetite. 2. Lard is rich in vitamin A, which is very important to us. If it is lacking, it will make our skin rough and even have the risk of night blindness. Therefore, eating lard properly can meet the needs of vitamin A in the body. 3. Lard is also rich in D, second only to cod liver oil. Vitamin D can promote the absorption of calcium by human body.
Second, how to eat lard to be healthy?
For our daily use of oil can be divided into saturated fat and unsaturated fat. Unsaturated fatty acids are generally derived from vegetable oil, and saturated fatty acids are derived from animals, such as lard. A healthy diet requires both, as long as the daily consumption is controlled at 1: 1. Therefore, although lard cooking is delicious, you can't eat too much. Eating too much will cause obesity and increase blood viscosity. Pork needs scientific and healthy use. Do not cook more than 30 grams a day, or use it alternately with vegetable oil to achieve a balanced nutrition. Only in this way can the body stay healthy.
We should look at lard objectively and not use it in large quantities every day just because we like it. But it is also wrong to think that lard is harmful to human body. In fact, lard still has many benefits to the body, but we need to use it scientifically and control the dosage. This not only meets the needs of eating delicious food, but also reduces the harm caused by excessive consumption.
