Proper diet for healthier body

Healthy diet is the basis for the body to obtain balanced nutrition.

The health of the cells determines the health of the body

What is dynamic imbalance? From the perspective of nutrition, a healthy body is inseparable from the balance between nutritional needs and dietary supply, and the balance between the energy provided by nutrients and the needs of human growth and development, physiology and physical activity

Then, how can the daily dietary structure be matched to meet the needs of the body and achieve a dynamic balance between the production and consumption of new and old cells? "Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents (2016)" gives a dietary pagoda, pointing out that the food should be diversified, mainly cereals, eat more vegetables, milk, soybeans, moderate fish, poultry, eggs, lean meat, and less salt Reduce oil, control sugar and limit alcohol, maintain a balanced diet and maintain a healthy weight

Reasonable adjustment of dietary structure helps to achieve a dynamic balance between cell consumption and supply, but it is not enough to maintain the continuous health of cells

What should you eat every day and how much? This is a topic closely related to people's lives no matter what country they are in

The first structure: If there is a lot of animal food and oil and polysaccharide, it can be inferred that the citizens of this country are usually fatter, and there may be many people suffering from chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes

The second structure: If you eat more food, most of the vegetables are vegetarian, and there are very few fish, eggs, cooking oil, etc.

The third structure: If the proportion of meat and vegetables is coordinated, the food types are diverse, and the condiments such as oil and sugar are not excessive, it can be inferred that the citizens of this country are relatively healthy, have a relatively long life expectancy, relatively few diseases, and the proportion of obese people is also high.

In the 1970s and 1980s, most Chinese people who were struggling with food and clothing were in the second food structure, and oil, sugar, meat, eggs, fish, and milk were not affordable for every family

In fact, the secret of this lies in "eating".

The acquired food nutrition is closely related to people's health status and longevity.
