Every healthy cell needs nutrition, but the nutrients that cells can store are very limited. Therefore, to solve this dilemma, we must continue to supplement nutrition, and a small amount of meals is the best way. Most of the nutrients needed by the human body come from food. In order to fully absorb nutrients and fully digest the food you eat, you should chew slowly when eating. Don't eat in a hurry at any time, chew the food carefully and eat it with relish, because chewing slowly equals digesting half. Eating more meals and less food can not only fully supplement the nutrients that have been lost and needed, but also properly supplement enzymes and lecithin that help digestion, as well as indigestible nutrients such as cheese, yogurt and fermented milk, which is helpful for beneficial bacteria in the intestine.
More importantly, the obesity of many people in modern times is directly related to their daily eating habits. Most people don't eat in the morning or die casually. They eat delicious food at noon or at night and eat like pigs. As everyone knows, this unscientific eating habit seriously violates the law of people's daily energy and nutrition consumption, which will lead to the emptiness of the body when nutrition and energy are needed, and the abnormal surplus when nutrition and energy are not needed very much. Finally, energy accumulation will be converted into fat until obesity, and people have to spend money to lose weight.
Therefore, if you want to be healthy, you should keep in mind the principle of "eat well early, eat well in the middle and eat less at night" and stick to this habit all your life.
2. Pursuing the nutritional quality of food
In modern society, chemical fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and other harmful chemical components are used too much in food cultivation, which makes people have to face these harmful substances when ingesting food. Therefore, when we buy food in the vegetable market, we should try not to choose those foods with bright colors, too big heads and obvious use of hormones.
If you are eager for health, please don't eat highly processed and finely processed foods, because these foods will only occupy the space in your stomach and have little nutritional value. These so-called "junk food" include macaroni, pasta, hydrogenated oil, delicately packaged food, jam, biscuits and canned fruit juice, wine, soft drinks and so on.
3. Timely supplement nutritional supplements.
If all nutrients can be obtained from natural foods, there is no need for nutritional supplements. Most people often take nutritional supplements as medicine, and when they are sick, they mostly take them to treat diseases. In fact, as long as there is some kind of nutritional deficiency, no matter how healthy, you should take nutritional supplements in moderation. Eating nutritional supplements to treat diseases is no different from supplementing nutrition for athletes, because medicine studies diseases, while nutrition studies human health.
4. Eat different foods at different times.
Scientists have recently divided food into two categories: daytime food and nighttime food.
Daytime food, mainly containing oxygen and rich in solar energy, is most suitable for eating between 6 am and 3: 30 pm. The main foods during the day are beef, mutton, tomatoes, carrots, oranges and green peas.
Nightingale is rich in carbon dioxide, and its energy is as cold as moonlight. This kind of food includes apples, bananas, pears, potatoes, cucumbers, dried fruits, dairy products, fish, eggs and so on. It is best to arrange for dinner after 3: 30 in the afternoon. This arrangement is not only helpful to lose weight, but also beneficial to health.
Step 5 eat in order
A person has to eat a lot of things a day, generally speaking, including rice, vegetables, soup, fruit and so on. Should these foods enter the gastrointestinal tract in order? The scientist's answer is yes.
There is a folk proverb: drinking soup before meals is better than prescription, pointing out the order of soup and rice, which is scientific. Drinking a few mouthfuls of soup before eating is equivalent to adding a little "lubricant" to the digestive tract, so that the subsequent food can be swallowed smoothly, preventing the stimulation of hard food to the gastrointestinal mucosa, thus facilitating the digestion of food and the absorption of nutrients by the gastrointestinal tract, and reducing the occurrence of diseases such as esophagitis and gastritis to a certain extent. If you do the opposite, don't drink soup before meals, and you will feel thirsty if you secrete too much gastric juice after meals. Drinking water at this time will dilute gastric juice and affect the digestion and absorption of food.
Besides, fruit, the main component is fructose, which does not need to be digested by the stomach and directly enters the small intestine and is absorbed by the human body. And rice, pasta, meat and other foods containing starch and protein ingredients need to stay in the stomach for a period of time. If you eat vegetables and vegetables before eating fruits, slow-digested starch and protein will hinder the fast-digested fruits, causing all foods to mix together in the stomach. At the high temperature of 37℃ in the gastrointestinal tract, fruits will produce fermentation reaction and even rot, causing flatulence, constipation and other symptoms, which will eventually have a negative impact on the digestive tract.
Therefore, experts advise people to eat in this order, that is, soup → vegetables → rice → meat → fruit after half an hour. If you eat seafood rich in protein and minerals such as squid, lobster and algae, you should postpone eating fruits for 2-3 hours and avoid eating them together, especially persimmons, pomegranates, lemons, grapes, bayberry and sour pomelo. The reason is that these fruits contain more tannic acid, which will not only reduce the nutritional value of protein, but also easily combine with calcium and iron in seafood to generate new indigestible substances, thus losing the pleasure of eating delicious food. To make matters worse, it can irritate the gastrointestinal tract, causing nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.
6. Change your pattern frequently and get less cancer.
Food cancer prevention has become a common problem. When people arrange recipes, they always try their best to consider which foods prevent cancer and which foods cause cancer, and it is often difficult to choose. In fact, there is no need to be so painstaking. According to the latest survey data of scientists, single diet, long-term partial eclipse and picky eaters are the chief culprit in inducing cancer.
It is found that the cells in the upper digestive tract such as esophagus and stomach are easily worn by foods rich in crude fiber such as corn, sweet potatoes and beans for a long time, and a considerable amount of protein is needed to repair them. If there is no protein in the diet, it may lead to abnormal differentiation of epithelial cells in the upper digestive tract and serious cell defects, thus further promoting the early occurrence of cancer. As for foods containing too much fat, such as meat, which have been used as staple foods for a long time, fat tends to gather around the lower digestive tract, that is, the large intestine, pancreas and other organs, forming a thick fat film, thus affecting cell decomposition, causing epithelial cell proliferation and inducing cancer over time.
In fact, canceration is a long-term reversible process. In this process, as long as there is a period of interruption, the whole canceration process will have to start again. In view of this, we might as well be tit-for-tat, often changing tastes and recipes, changing the dining table and constantly disrupting the pathological process of cancer, so as to keep cancer out of the body-isn't such a simple anti-cancer method easier to operate than picking and choosing food?
7. Do a good job in color articles
Which foods are the most nutritious? Which foods contribute the most to health? The famous American nutritionist David? Dr. Xibo reminded people that potato chips and iceberg lettuce, which many people usually like to eat, are not very nutritious foods because of the lack of color. Xibo believes that dazzling agricultural products contain an "armory" against diseases, and the weapons in the "armory" are medically called plant nutrition, which is closely related to the color of food.
Take red or purple as an example. Vegetables or fruits of these colors contain anthocyanins, which have a strong anti-hardening effect and can prevent the onset of diseases such as heart disease or stroke. These foods include black strawberries, cherries, oranges, eggplant, millet, red grapes, red apples, red cabbage, black pepper and red wine.
In addition, orange, represented by carrots, contains carotene, which is beneficial to the health of eyes and skin and reduces the risk of cancer. Others are acorns, melons, apricots, mangoes and sweet potatoes.
How about yellow fruits and vegetables? They are rich in lutein to prevent cell damage, which can better protect eyes and help prevent cataracts and macular degeneration, such as nectarine, Liu Ding, papaya, peach, pineapple, orange and grapefruit.
The advantage of green is that it is rich in a natural chemical component, which can stimulate the production of anti-cancer enzymes in the liver, such as Chinese cabbage, cabbage and cauliflower.
Finally, it is white. For example, garlic and onions contain allicin, which is a "fighter" against tumors. Mushrooms contain chemicals that fight other diseases. The common feature of this kind of food is that it is rich in flavonoids, which can protect the heart and fight cancer.
