Clinical research has found that if patients are given a list that says "this disease can't eat this, that disease can't eat that", patients will listen very carefully. Some people will stick this list on the kitchen wall and remind themselves from time to time.
In fact, it's good to start taboos for health, but you must learn the right taboos. People often say that some taboo knowledge is actually wrong. If you don't go too far, don't say anything wrong. It's harmful to your health and does more harm than good. For example, the following three taboos are typical misunderstandings.
Myth 1: avoid meat with high blood fat
At present, there are many people with hyperlipidemia. In order to control blood lipids, many people give up all high protein foods such as bean products, meat, fish, eggs and milk. In fact, this is not only not conducive to the improvement of the disease, but also aggravates organ failure due to malnutrition.
Animal food is an important source of protein, minerals and vitamin B. If you dare not eat animal food because of fear of hyperlipidemia, it may induce a variety of diseases, including muscle weakness, osteoporosis and so on.
The key to nutrition is a balanced diet. Even if the blood lipid is abnormal, you should also eat animal food in moderation. Pay attention to fish, shrimp, poultry and lean meat, and peel poultry meat. At the same time, do not eat high cholesterol ingredients such as crab roe and animal viscera.
Eating fish properly can obtain beneficial - 3 fatty acids, which will not only increase blood lipids, but also help to control blood lipids. If there are no other special taboos, you can eat 40-75g (raw weight) of aquatic products on average every day.
Myth 2: avoid eggs for colds
Many people think that if you have a cold and fever, you can't eat eggs, otherwise it will aggravate your condition. In fact, this worry is superfluous.
Eating eggs with a cold does increase heat production in the body. This is because when food is oxidized and decomposed in the body, it will not only release heat energy, but also stimulate the human body to produce additional heat. But the effect of this heat is negligible and is not enough to cause severe fluctuations in body temperature or delay the recovery time of a cold.
On the contrary, when you have a cold and fever, your body consumes a lot of energy and your resistance decreases. Proper supplementation of high protein foods, such as eggs, is good for your recovery. But it should be noted that the practice should be light.
Myth three: diabetes, slobber and fruit
Fruit is a very healthy food. There are three treasures in fruits: vitamins, inorganic salts and dietary fiber. As long as there are no special taboos, everyone is encouraged to eat.
The study found that proper consumption of fruits in diabetics can significantly reduce the risk of death and complications. Of course, if blood glucose control is not stable enough and fluctuates frequently in the near future, it is imperative to control blood glucose. It is best not to eat fruit first.
If the fasting blood glucose is controlled below 7 mmol / L, the two-hour postprandial blood glucose is controlled below 11 mmol / L, and the glycosylated hemoglobin is controlled below 7.0 percent , you can eat fruit if you meet these three conditions.
Diabetics can eat 150-200g fruit with net weight daily. Common fruits include watermelon, lemon, melon, red bayberry, strawberry, cherry, grapefruit, peach, plum, apricot, Hami melon, etc. The sugar content is relatively low.
Of course, to be on the safe side, you can measure your blood sugar 2 hours before and 2 hours after eating fruit to see if eating fruit has an impact on your blood sugar and find a suitable fruit.
