Extended data

Reasonable collocation can bring a healthy diet.

Using the concept of traffic lights to control diet is to let people clearly distinguish and understand the attributes of food and make selective collocation. Specifically, it includes three aspects:

First, try not to eat or eat less foods high in sugar and fat. Ice cream, sweet drinks, desserts and other foods have excessive sugar content, which is easy to cause obesity; Fried foods are all "three high foods" with high calorie, high fat and high cholesterol. These foods contain less nutrients. Excessive consumption will increase satiety and affect eating at dinner. Long-term consumption will increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease in children.

Second, the food in the yellow light district should be eaten normally, so don't eat too much. Nuts and oilseeds contain 40% ~ 70% fat, mainly unsaturated fatty acids, which is beneficial to improve the level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol ("good cholesterol") in the blood, and are also rich in vitamins and minerals. However, their heat is on the high side and should not exceed 1 per day.

Third, there are no restrictions on green food. Green leafy vegetables, fruits and other foods are low in calories and high in fiber, which can provide a lot of potassium, calcium and magnesium for meals.
