The healthy pursuit of condiments

0 1. Put as little seasoning as possible. Many people mistakenly think that chicken essence is extracted from chicken, so chicken essence is healthier than monosodium glutamate. In fact, this idea is very wrong. Chicken essence and monosodium glutamate are both chemical condiments, but chicken essence has more additives such as essence, pigment and starch than monosodium glutamate. If you look carefully at the ingredient list of chicken essence and monosodium glutamate, you can find that the main ingredient of both is sodium glutamate. After long-term consumption of sodium glutamate, the number of sodium ions in human body will gradually increase, which will lead to various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, we must put less such condiments in our daily life.

02. Reduce salt intake. In fact, salt, like monosodium glutamate, also contains a lot of sodium ions, so eating too much salt is very harmful to our health. Many patients with hypertension are caused by high-salt eating habits, so we must pay attention to a light diet and reduce salt intake. In addition, you should eat less pickled foods, such as bacon and pickles.

03. Reduce sugar intake. Eating sugar can stimulate the body to secrete an exciting substance dopamine, which makes people feel happy. But you can't eat too much sugar, because once the human body ingests too much sugar, it will not only induce hyperglycemia, but also lead to symptoms such as tooth decay, obesity and skin aging.

04. Eat more coarse grains. Coarse grains such as oats, corn flour and buckwheat can promote our intestinal peristalsis and enhance our digestive ability, thus avoiding the discomfort of abdominal distension and stomachache. For the sake of our gastrointestinal health, we must eat less flour and rice and more coarse grains in our daily diet.

05. Eat more fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins and dietary fiber, which can not only provide all kinds of energy for our body, but also enhance our immunity and reduce the occurrence of various diseases. Fruits like kiwi fruit also have a good anti-cancer effect. While ensuring a balanced nutrition, we should eat more fruits and vegetables, which is the healthiest diet.
