What is the concept of a mild diet that is entertaining and entertaining? Why don't you have a clue Give me a hand.
1. Diet culture or "pill culture"
We in China pay attention to dietotherapy, while westerners are used to taking medicine. Qi Yao Min Shu, the first monograph on agriculture in China, collected 10 kinds of cereals and beans, about 200 kinds. More than 20 kinds of vegetables, 100 varieties; There are more than 100 kinds of fish, meat and eggs. I feel uncomfortable when I go to Europe. Vegetables are expensive. A cucumber and a Chinese cabbage cost one euro, which is 10 yuan. Back to Beijing, 10 yuan can buy a car full of vegetables. China's farming civilization has given us 140 kinds of vegetables to choose from. Therefore, the Chinese nation has formed a traditional diet structure in China, which is mainly composed of five grains and beans, eating enough vegetables, supplemented by animal food and eating fruits. This kind of diet is rich in connotation and has clear health care function, which ensures the balance of diet. The successful practice of ecological agriculture in China for thousands of years has laid a solid material foundation for "homology of medicine and food" and the use of diet for health preservation.
China people firmly believe that "food tonic is not as good as medicine tonic". There are six words to evaluate food-color, smell, taste, shape, container and effect. At the same time, we should pay attention to the effect of "diet therapy". The west is a pill culture, because there are too many animal foods in western food, and the types of vegetables are monotonous, which leads to a serious shortage of vegetable intake. The per capita vegetable intake in Europe and America is 200g/day, while that in China is 500-600g/day. In order to supplement the deficiency of dietary nutrition, the West extracted effective ingredients from various foods to make tablets, forming a modern so-called Western tablet culture. Because Americans eat less vegetables, many newborns have suffered from spina bifida in the past few years, which is because pregnant women have insufficient folic acid intake. The main source of folic acid is spinach, a green leaf food. The United States later extracted folic acid and made it into tablets, requiring pregnant women to generally supplement it. People in China have a very balanced diet, so this kind of congenital malformation is very rare. Another example is vitamin C and beta carotene, which are constantly oxidized from the day they are synthesized until the tablets expire, and the vitamin C we get from food is very stable. A nutritionist made the following analogy-that is, "pills are artificial and natural food is made by God".
Based on pill culture, all good dishes in the west are turned into pills, because selling vegetables can't make much money, so we can only make money by extracting them. You will never see advertisements for vegetables and fruits on TV, because the advertising fee is added to the product price. An authoritative person in the field of health care and nutrition in the United States said that in the eyes of most people, large and small pills made in the laboratory are a panacea for treating our serious illness, but this is not the case. Now more and more scientists are developing different drug resources-animals and plants, which have existed on the earth for millions of years. This is what we eat at dinner. Because food does not have the simple function of chemically synthesizing drugs, there is no need to worry about side effects. It can keep the balance of the body and promote health.
Let's start with the medical expenditure in the United States and related countermeasures.
In 2000, American medical expenditure accounted for 17% of GDP. However, medical insurance only covers 85% of the population, and 37 million people have no medical insurance. Before leaving office, President Clinton warned that if the health care system is not reformed, the medical expenses in the United States will reach 24% of GDP in 20 10, which is about $2 trillion. Therefore, the United States rewards "non-drug-related diseases" and lists the categories of "nutritional supplementary foods", which are divided into "foods with potential functions" and "functional foods with certain functions". The first batch of functional foods with established functions announced by the United States are soybeans from China. Therefore, China said that "you can live without meat for a day, but you can't live without beans for a day" and "green vegetables and tofu keep you safe", which is very correct. The present nutritional situation in China is that malnutrition and overnutrition coexist. There are 24 million malnourished children in China, and rickets and iron deficiency anemia are still the main malnutrition diseases in rural areas. In economically developed areas, the diet structure is westernized, foreign fast food is everywhere, and obesity caused by overnutrition has become a serious problem threatening children. "Westernization of diet structure, civilization disease landed in China". 1979, the prevalence of diabetes in China was only 0.67%, which rose to 3.2 1% in 198, and reached 6% in Beijing in 2006, and most of them were wealthy farmers in the urban-rural fringe. Some farmers use 85 grams of vegetable oil for cooking a day. They say it is no problem to eat more vegetable oil. In China, the prevalence of hypertension among people aged 35-74 has reached 27.2%, and there are about 65.438+300 million people with hypertension in this age group alone.

I will tell you the way to prevent high blood pressure. One is to drink chrysanthemum tea, which can get certain effect after one month. The second is to control the amount of salt. At present, Beijingers eat salt 15g- 16g on average every day. If the daily salt content is controlled below 10g (the requirement of the World Health Organization is 6g), a certain effect will be achieved after one month. When I was a visiting scholar abroad, I used a method for foreigners, which was to cut a celery into pieces half an hour before going to bed every day, scald it with boiling water, and then squeeze it into juice to drink. Another recipe for "dietotherapy" is Tianma Gouteng Noodle Soup, that is, Tianma 10g and Uncaria 10g. After decocting the soup, the soup can play the role of "dietotherapy". The so-called civilized disease is the "five-disease syndrome", that is, with obesity as the center, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and diabetes. At present, about 90% of diabetic patients in China are type 2 diabetes, and the first reason is obesity. Because once the human body is obese, it will produce so-called "insulin resistance" and gradually induce type 2 diabetes.
"If you don't sweep away the misunderstanding of diet, it is difficult to get rid of the civilized disease", "Civilized people happily swallowed the civilized disease and are building graves with their own teeth". The diet structure of the United States is different from that of the founding of the People's Republic of China. 19 14 years, the United States did a famous experiment, which was to let experimental animals eat protein and found that protein could promote growth; The so-called "non-profit organization" composed of interest groups printed this result into a booklet and sent it to all primary and secondary schools in the United States. 1920, these propaganda have been expanded, and the United States has gradually become such a diet structure-drinking milk as water and eating a lot of beef, and one person consumes 100 kg of beef every year. So when did Americans find something wrong? It was during the Korean War that American and South Korean soldiers aged about 20 were autopsied. Surprisingly, the degree of arteriosclerosis between the two is very different, and 77% of American soldiers suffer from arteriosclerosis. The reason is that the difference in diet structure has planted a "time bomb" on American soldiers, which greatly increases their hidden dangers of cardiovascular disease and hypertension in the future. So we think that when we are old or middle-aged, we have a disease of civilization, but when we are young, we have planted a curse. Therefore, it is necessary to have a scientific concept and educate children to pay attention to a balanced diet from the beginning of the doll. China people used to ask "Have you eaten?" as soon as they met, but now it is probably rare to ask such a question. But now many of us are pursuing "good taste". Then I think what we should pursue is "eat well and seek health" "The belt is long, the life span is short, and it is full of diseases." "Central obesity" is the worst, that is, obesity with protruding abdomen, because every inch of abdominal fat is thickened, four blood vessels will be added in the body, greatly increasing the burden on the heart. In the west, the poor are obese, which is incredible for our ancestors. This is related to the fact that people at the bottom of American society consume a lot of "junk food"-double sandwiches, chicken burgers, extra-large pizzas and large packages of fried potato chips. It is this food structure that makes them the most likely to gain weight in America. When these "junk food" people in China were queuing to buy food, a strange phenomenon appeared in Beijing. Whose son, daughter and grandson are admitted, grandpa, grandma, dad and mom will treat them to "foreign garbage".
In the United States, obesity is the second leading cause of death after smoking. "If you want your child to be safe, you must stay hungry and cold." A few years ago, a hospital delivered two children, weighing 10 kg and 12 kg respectively. Both of them are congenital diabetes. Because their mother was "stupid", they finally ate "stupid". A mother said I could eat grapes once. Because they are all only children now, pregnancy is the key protection. Some time ago, we discussed the problem of tainted milk powder. I said that China people have known that rice soup has educational significance since ancient times. After eating ginseng chicken soup and rice oil, the child will gain weight for a hundred days. Children drink rice soup, not as big dolls. Why do they eat fake milk powder? If you want to be healthy, you must stay cold and hungry for three minutes. The obesity rate in Beijing ranks first in China, reaching 45%, and 20% of newborns in Beijing are obese.

2. Sofa and potato culture threaten people's health.
Sofa and potato culture threaten people's health. From 65438 to 0997, a report published by the World Health Organization pointed out that unhealthy lifestyles-sofa and potato culture are threatening human health. Sofa potato culture refers to sitting on the sofa, eating French fries, drinking coke and watching TV. The proportion of teenagers watching TV for a long time in China is 12.7%. The survey of American teenagers aged 10- 15 shows that children who watch TV for five hours a day have a 5.3 times higher risk of obesity than children who watch TV for less than two hours. The American Business Daily reporter described the business culture represented by fast food, tobacco and alcohol introduced by the United States to developing countries in the world in vivid language. "While the golden signboard of fast food restaurants is popular all over the world, men riding horses in cigarette advertisements appear on the horizon, and advertisements for various foreign wines emerge one after another." When I recall my childhood, all I can think of is the smell of baked sweet potatoes and boiled old corn cob. When our children grow up, all I think of when I recall my childhood is "junk food". Comrades, what a terrible scene this will be!
Children's "juice drink syndrome" was discovered in Britain. These children have poor academic performance, willfulness, emotional impulsiveness, hyperactivity and inattention, and get up in the morning because they didn't drink juice all night. It is found that "fruit juice drink syndrome" is mostly related to eating synthetic pigments. 1973 the American medical association suggested that food additives are related to ADHD in children. Synthetic pigments and essences can cause allergies, such as asthma, laryngeal edema, cough, rhinitis, urticaria, itchy skin and nervous headache. Excessive drinking of cola drinks will lead to imbalance of calcium and phosphorus, which will affect children's development. During our visit to Europe, we found that all parents of the "Coke Opposition" in Europe did not allow their children to drink Coke because it would be addictive. Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun reported on March 16, 2004 that a Japanese study proved that the prevention of diabetes should start with diet and exercise. Japanese diabetes also has a name called "lifestyle disease", which requires exercise in addition to diet control. Therefore, China people say, "It is better to walk than to practice a hundred times". (To be continued, see Japanese newspaper Health Express in July 1)
3. "Foreign fast food" enters China.
Garbage diet is harmful to people's health in China.
"Foreign fast food" enters China, and junk food harms people's health in China! Foreign fast food is an out-and-out "energy bomb" and "junk food" On February 15, 2002, a reporter from Effie reported from Beijing that "China tradition was deeply impacted by western fashion". The article points out that "China's ancient tradition has been preserved for thousands of years from the Warring States period, but now it seems to have succumbed to the irresistible western lifestyle ... Since the United States, China has imitated the worst thing-foreign fast food". "Foreign fast food" has the characteristics of three highs (high calorie, high fat and high protein) and three lows (low minerals, low vitamins and low dietary fiber). Nutritionists have nicknamed "foreign fast food"-energy bomb and junk food. Because eating a foreign fast food is equal to the lower limit of your daily energy consumption. It is conceivable that if your child eats bombs every day, can this child be healthy? (Applause) Foreign fast food also undermines the principle of food biodiversity. The variety of "foreign fast food" is very simple, not as rich as the food in China. China people think that "omnivorous food, delicious food, wide food and nutrition are also very important". American congressmen, nutritionists and consumer associations claim that obesity, like smoking, has become a public health problem, calling for "driving fast food out of campus". In June 2002 +2002 10, a child who was obese because of eating foreign fast food for a long time in new york took McDonald's to court, claiming that it caused childhood obesity. (Applause) The magazine New Scientist published in London from June 5438 to October 29, 2003 reported that foreign fast food can cause hormonal changes in the body, leading to addiction. University of Washington endocrinologist Michael? Professor Schwartz found that fast food (hamburgers, fried potato chips, etc. ) will cause changes in hormones in the body, making it difficult for consumers to control their food intake. The article said: "The discovery of biological effects of fast food is of explosive significance, and the cause of obesity cannot be attributed to the fact that obese people have no self-control ability."
The oil used in some "foreign fast food" is different from the common vegetable oil traditionally used in China, because it is hydrogenated oil, that is, the oil produced by hydrogenation of vegetable oil. Professor willett, director of the Department of Nutrition, School of Public Health, Harvard University, pointed out in 199 1 that hydrogenated oil produced by hydrogenation of natural vegetable oil is harmful to health! Because hydrogenated oil contains some trans fatty acids that do not exist in nature, trans fatty acids will affect the endocrine system of human body and endanger health. Willett pointed out: "Epidemiological studies on the relationship between the intake of hydrogenated fat and the risk of heart disease and diabetes show that hydrogenated fat is worse than saturated fat".
Foreign fast food and carcinogen -C poison. On April 24, 2002, the Swedish National Security Bureau announced the latest research results, and found that French fries, hamburgers, biscuits, roast pork and so on contained a lot of acrylamide. Because acrylamide damages the central nervous system and can induce benign or malignant tumors, some scholars believe that this explains the high incidence of tumors in western countries. On March 24, 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the inspection results of 750 kinds of foods, which once again confirmed that the content of such carcinogens in French fries, potato chips, popcorn and fried chicken was the highest. Cooking conditions at home are good and fresh vegetables are the safest. Europe and America are different from China. Every kitchen has an oven, which is high-temperature cooking. The traditional diet in China is low-temperature cooking. Our rice, noodles and steamed bread are all made of water, which will not exceed 100 degrees Celsius, much lower than baking. Cooking can be cooked in a short time, and the combination of high temperature and low temperature not only helps to keep the nutrients from losing, but also meets the needs of surface sterilization and reduces the oxidation of oil. So the traditional cooking methods of China people are very safe.

4. Guide the whole country
Scientific and reasonable food consumption
The wrong orientation of "foreign fast food" makes meat consumption increase sharply, endangering the survival of the Chinese nation! From 1988 to 1998, the meat consumption in China doubled. I was told that all the children in my family have become "carnivores". Our meat consumption has surpassed that of South Korea and Japan, becoming the first country in Asia to maintain the oriental eating habits, and pork consumption ranks first in the world. From a short-sighted point of view, this seems to indicate the improvement of living standards, but from the perspective of ecology and sustainable development, excessive consumption of meat will endanger the survival of the nation. As we all know, it takes 3 times and 5 times of grain to produce a catty of pork and poultry. An acre of land used for raising cattle can produce 1 pound of animal protein, while planting soybeans can produce 17 pound of high-quality plant protein. Eating meat requires 16 times more land than eating beans. The water consumption of animal husbandry is 8 times that of planting vegetables and grains, which pollutes and destroys the ecological environment as much as industrial pollution.
Recently, the State Council announced the 64th occupation access in China, and a brand-new occupation named nutrition caterer appeared in China to protect people's health. Comrade Yu Ruomu once pointed out: "Scientific catering is an effective way to improve and improve people's health without investment." Due to China's vast territory and large population, the development of economy, culture and productivity is unbalanced, especially the unbalanced diet structure, where malnutrition and overnutrition coexist. Various diseases caused by malnutrition can be effectively controlled through scientific diet. In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of western developed countries, we believe that it is an urgent historical task to adjust the structure according to the national conditions and guide the whole nation to carry out food consumption scientifically and reasonably.
From the practice of fighting against nature, China people realize that many foods have medicinal value. "Zhou Li? According to Tianguan Pian, as early as 3000 years ago in the Western Zhou Dynasty, China established the earliest medical system in the world, and there were full-time staff in the medical system responsible for the management of diet and nutrition. At that time, doctors were divided into four categories, namely "food doctors"; The disease doctor (physician) nourishes his disease with "five flavors, five grains and five medicines"; If you choose a doctor (surgeon), you will "nourish your bones with acid, your tendons with pungent, your pulse with salty, your gas with bitter, your meat with sweet, and your orifices with slippery"; And "vet". The medical system in Zhou Dynasty takes "food doctor" as the first priority, and the task of "food doctor" is to "take care of six foods, six drinks, six meals, hundred vegetables, hundred sauces and eight treasures". That is to reconcile tastes, determine the diet of the four seasons and prevent diseases. This is the earliest practice of "nutritional medicine" by human beings so far.
The famous doctors in China have a lot to say about the importance of diet: For example, the Warring States Period? Bian Que said, "If a gentleman is ill, he should take it to treat him first. If the diet fails, he should take medicine. " Huang Gongxiu in Qing Dynasty pointed out: "The entrance of food, the treatment of the same medicine, is beneficial to the viscera and can treat diseases hygienically;" Inconsistency is harmful to human viscera, but it aggravates the condition and promotes death. "Sun Simiao in the Tang Dynasty pointed out:" The root of settling down is food, and those who don't know about diet therapy are not enough to end their lives "; Eating can drive away evil spirits, strengthen the viscera, make people feel happy, refresh their minds, and replenish qi and blood. As a doctor, you should know the source of the disease and treat it with food if you commit it. If it doesn't heal, then take medicine. "
Philosophical Connotation of China s Traditional Nutrition;
The ecological concept of "harmony between man and nature, harmony between body and soil";
The health concept of "regulating yin and yang, yin and yang have secrets";
The dietotherapy view of "medicine and food are homologous, and food contains medicine";
The concept of balanced diet of "eating according to things and eating according to syndrome differentiation"
Therefore, follow: "light vegetarian diet";
"A day without meat, not without beans";
"Rough tea and light rice, green vegetables and tofu are safe";
"Food, not without green".
There is a folk proverb in Nanjing: "If you don't eat green vegetables for three days, you will see stars in your eyes". These dietary principles of traditional health care in China are very valuable.
The World Health Organization recommended "Mediterranean Diet" in 1990s. Residents living in Mediterranean countries such as Italy, Spain and Greece have the same environment as Northern Europe, but the incidence of heart disease is very low, making them one of the longevity areas in the world. Studying this phenomenon gives people a lot of enlightenment. After a lot of investigation and analysis, the mystery has been gradually revealed, which is believed to be related to the diet structure (Mediterranean diet) in this area. The basic feature of "Mediterranean diet" is "omnivore", which organically combines cereals, meat, seafood, eggs, vegetables and fruits, and contains starch-rich cereals and vegetable paste seasonings, plus a large number of green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits and a small amount of meat. The variety of food is rich and comprehensive, which meets the overall demand of human body for nutrition. "Mediterranean diet" fully embodies the principle of biodiversity and effectively reduces the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases. One of the vegetables they often eat is Portulaca oleracea, a wild vegetable eaten by China people.
The report submitted to Congress by McGovern, Chairman of the Special Committee on Nutrition and Health of the US Senate, pointed out: "At present, nutritional problems or imbalance and overnutrition have become the primary problems related to people's health. Today's danger is no longer beriberi, pellagra or scurvy. The reality we face is much more subtle and terrible than this. What millions of Americans put into their stomachs may make them suffer from obesity, high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and cancer. In short, it will be fatal slowly. This is his sharp criticism of the American diet structure at that time. " Therefore, from 65438 to 0996, the United States Department of Agriculture promoted the "Food Guide Pyramid", and put forward suggestions on choosing the types and quantities of food every day, with the aim of promoting health and reducing the occurrence of diseases related to diet structure such as heart disease, hypertension, cancer and diabetes. As early as the autumn of 1992, this graphic was immediately attacked by meat and dairy producers from all directions, thinking that it did not meet the living needs of western residents. After spending 860 thousand dollars and completing further verification, it is confirmed that the design of "food guide pyramid" is scientific. The bottom of the pyramid promoted in the United States is whole grains; The penultimate layer is that vegetables and fruits are equally divided; Half of the penultimate layer is dairy products, and half is meat, poultry, fish, eggs, nuts and dried fruits; The top layer is oil, salt and sugar. Does everyone say this is American food? It is not difficult to see from the picture that the "food guide pyramid" is a replica of the oriental diet structure for thousands of years. Nutritionists believe that changing the western food structure can prolong the average life expectancy of Americans 10 years.

5. Chinese nation
There are ten balances between rice and rice.
There are ten balances between diet and meals in China. The traditional dietary structure in China emphasizes "balanced diet and dialectical eating" and advocates food complementarity with different nutritional components. The traditional diet structure of the Chinese nation has the following incisive exposition: "five grains are suitable for eating, and beans are bad if they are lost;" Five animals should be profitable, and the fire is not shallow; Five dishes are always full, fresh green, yellow and red, and five fruits are helpful. As few as possible, the smell is consistent, you should take it, especially avoid partial eclipse, and your diet is expensive and frugal. Don't overdo it. " Only in China can food be divided into staple food and non-staple food. During SARS last year, I repeatedly emphasized acid-base balance in a radio program. The PH value of SARS virus culture medium is 7.2, while the PH value of human blood is 7.35 to 7.45. If you eat too much acidic food such as chicken, duck and fish. When the blood turns sour, it is easy to catch SARS.
Our Chinese characters are all symbols of wisdom. We say that good health means "essence, qi and spirit". The word "essence" is half rice and half vegetable. If you don't eat rice and vegetables, where can you get the essence There is also rice in Qi's traditional Chinese characters. Half of the word "God" is a field where crops are planted, so if you don't eat plant materials, there will be no "essence", "qi" and "God". The Chinese nation has an ancestral motto that "things are rare". Our sages deeply realized the great health care function of whole grains, the staple food, from their life practice. From practical experience, China people have come to the conclusion that "eating five grains and cereal packets cures all diseases" and "rice porridge warms the stomach and nourishes qi". "Random House Diet Spectrum" says: porridge and rice is the best supplement in the world. Poor people suffer from deficiency, so it works wonders to replace ginseng soup with thick rice soup every time. It is most suitable for pregnant women to drink porridge. Li Shizhen said that rice oil is the chicken soup for the poor, and babies "get fat after eating rice oil for a hundred days". Chinese medicine believes that brown rice is sweet and warm, which can strengthen the spleen and nourish the stomach, tonify the middle energizer and replenish qi, harmonize the five internal organs, soothe the nerves and help digestion and absorption. The fine-coarse balance of staple food is the simplest and easiest way for modern nutrition to guide people to arrange their meals scientifically. Confucius in The Analects of Confucius? The article "Xiangdang" points out: "Although there is a lot of meat, it does not make it better than eating gas", and advocates eating meat moderately. This means that even if the daily diet is rich in meat, you can't eat more meat than whole grains, that is to say, no amount of meat can exceed the staple food. Last year, a director visited. He said that his children have become "carnivores", so how much meat is appropriate for children to eat? I said how many teeth do you have? He said there were 32. I said if you were a tiger, your mouth was full of fangs. The eight teeth in front of us (such as front teeth) are called front teeth, which are used to cut fibers. The back 20 teeth are molars, which are used to grind grain; Only four canine teeth are used for eating meat. Is it appropriate for you to eat so much meat? Molar ratio of incisors to canines = 5 to 2 1. According to this calculation, the ratio of plant food to animal food in human normal food structure should be 7 1! It is this mysterious proportion that highlights the reasonable dietary structure of human beings! It shows the importance of plant food to human health, which is undoubtedly the result of millions of years of natural evolution of human beings. The incidence of prostate cancer remains high in the United States, and it is also on the rise in China in recent years. An epidemiological survey of Mongolian people in pastoral and agricultural areas of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region shows that the incidence of prostatic hypertrophy among male adult residents in pastoral areas dominated by meat is much higher than that in agricultural areas, indicating that dietary structure is related to the incidence of prostatic diseases. Because the fat of quadruped terrestrial animals contains arachidonic acid (the precursor of prostaglandin), it can be seen that the diet structure is westernized and excessive meat intake is one of the reasons for the obvious increase in the incidence of prostate cancer.
Eating four legs is better than eating two legs, and eating two legs is better than eating one leg. For example, mushrooms with only one leg are healthy food. Scientists in Britain and the United States have found that the composition of microbial flora in the intestines of vegetarians and non-vegetarians is obviously different-when human digestive juice interacts with the above-mentioned intestinal microorganisms, different chemicals are produced, which makes non-vegetarians more prone to cancer. The traditional dietary structure of the Chinese nation advocates the diversification of food sources, which has the characteristics of variety, subjectivity and collocation. It is suitable for the physiological structure of human digestive tract and the needs of comprehensive nutrition. Trace elements and other micronutrients can only be ingested from the outside, but cannot be synthesized or produced by themselves in the body. The importance of omnivore is self-evident. Professor Li Ruifen, a famous nutritionist, argues that in order to keep healthy, you should eat more than 30 different foods every day.
Food is also cold, hot, warm and cold. Therefore, like traditional Chinese medicine, balanced collocation can be beneficial to health. Mung beans are cold and non-toxic, clearing away heat and toxic materials, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst; Chrysanthemum is bitter and non-toxic, clearing away heat and improving eyesight; Watermelon has the reputation of "natural white tiger soup", which is used for fever, thirst and red urine. Mutton is bitter, hot and non-toxic, and has the same effect as ginseng. China people like to drink mung bean soup and chrysanthemum tea in summer, and take watermelon as the fruit after dinner; In winter, I like to eat instant-boiled mutton; Crabs are cold and ginger is hot. While eating crabs, Jiang Mo was added. It is naturally harmful to health to destroy the cold-heat balance of food during intake. The choice and collocation of this kind of food is based on the understanding of diet balance.
Food tastes sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty. Only by harmonizing the five flavors can we increase our appetite and complement each other. Huangdi Neijing, an ancient medical book 2,500 years ago, expounded the harm of excessive edible salt. The results of the national hypertension sampling survey in 1990s showed that about one fifth of the population in Beijing suffered from hypertension. The prevalence rate of hypertension corresponding to the eating habit of "sweet in the south and salty in the north" changes regularly, showing an obvious downward trend from north to south, and the big cities are Beijing > Tianjin > Shanghai > Guangzhou. The prevalence of hypertension in Beijing is 4.4 times that in Guangzhou. Therefore, changing the eating habits of heavy mouth and scientifically arranging meals are important means to control hypertension. Farmers in Shandong eat salt17.3g every day, and the prevalence rate of hypertension is 15.3%. Farmers in Guangxi eat 7.5 grams of salt every day, and the prevalence rate of hypertension is only 8.2%.
"Eat slowly, not coarsely" and the balance between fast eating and slow eating. The book "Unnecessary words for treating diseases" says: "No matter porridge, rice or snacks, you should chew them very carefully and swallow them." According to medical theory, "If you don't want to eat in a hurry, it will damage your spleen, so you should chew slowly." Patients are required to chew 50 times per meal before swallowing, which is beneficial to the recovery of the body. Chewing is an important link to help eating and digestion. Chewing slowly while eating can make a lot of saliva secreted. Amylase in saliva can help digestion, lysozyme and secretory antibody can sterilize and detoxify. Saliva has the magical effect of transforming carcinogens into harmless substances, such as nitrosamines, aflatoxin, 3,4-benzopyrene and alkylating agents, cigarette oil, fish and seafood paste, etc. Its mutagenicity to cells can be completely lost within 30 seconds. If you chew it carefully, it will provide our body with the first line of defense.
"Eating should be warm", and the diet should pay attention to the balance between cold and heat. Sun Simiao's exposition in Wings of a Thousand Daughters is worth learning. He pointed out that "hot food hurts bones, cold food hurts lungs, heat does not burn lips, and cold has no ice teeth." Why do many children cough in summer? Eating a full belly of ice cream also lowers the temperature of the stomach and lungs. Capillary contraction and blockage, of course, cough.
"You should have time to eat", and you should also pay attention to the meal time and the balance between hunger and satiety. Eat less at dinner and be comfortable at night. Nowadays, many people are obese because they socialize at night, go back to sleep after eating, and sleep after eating is a pig's life, so it is very easy to be obese. (Applause)
In addition, what needs special emphasis is the balance between food intake and physical activity. The key to obesity is too much calorie intake and too little calorie intake. Everyone must pay attention to exercise. When you climb stairs, the upper level will consume 0. 1 kcal, and the lower level will consume 0.06 kcal, so exercise is the most important nutrition-behavioral nutrition. There is a famous Greek saying: "Do you want to be healthy? Run, do you want to be smart? Run, do you want to be beautiful? Run. " We think that exercise is behavioral nutrition. Therefore, psychological nutrition, food nutrition and behavioral nutrition are the most important for people. Hippocrates pointed out: "We should take food as medicine, and diet is your first choice for medical treatment". This coincides with the theory of "medicine and food are homologous" in Chinese medicine.
