The pagoda of balanced diet is divided into five layers, including the main types of food we should eat every day. The location and area of each floor of the pagoda are different, which reflects the position and proportion of various foods in the diet to some extent.
Cereals are at the bottom, and each person should eat 300-500 grams a day;
Vegetables and fruits occupy the second floor, and you should eat 400-500 grams and 100-200 grams every day;
Animal foods such as fish, poultry, meat and eggs are located on the third floor. You should eat125-200g every day (50g of fish and shrimp, 50-100g of livestock and poultry, and 25-50g of eggs).
Milk and beans occupy the fourth floor. You should eat100g of milk and dairy products and 50g of beans and bean products every day.
The spire on the fifth floor is made of oil, which does not exceed 25 grams per day, and salt does not exceed 6 grams per day.
Healthy people drink alcohol in moderation, and people suffering from serious diseases such as heart disease, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia and liver disease are forbidden to drink alcohol.
Sugar is not recommended for pagodas. Because the average amount of sugar eaten by China residents is still very small, eating less or eating more may have little impact on health. But eating more sugar will increase the risk of dental caries, especially for children and adolescents.
