People take food as their heaven, and we deal with "eating" almost every day. Chinese people used to say "have you eaten" when they met. This shows the status of "eating" in our lives.
Nowadays, there are many kinds of food, and there are all kinds of delicacies that tempts us everywhere. What we pursue is not only to be full and well eaten, but also to eat healthily. If we understand that we can’t eat for a lifetime and even eat in a mess, how can we do it!
(Haha, just kidding, it's good to eat confusedly, because it's rare to be confused, this is also a realm!)
So now it’s not the problem of lack of food or insufficient diet, but the problem of diet It is a question of balance.
So what is a balanced diet? Is it balanced by eating a little bit of everything? Or is everything the same ratio?
So today, let's briefly discuss the issue of balanced diet.
1. Northern wheat and southern rice, the staple food is the most nutritious
Northerners love to eat noodles, southerners love to eat rice, northern wheat and southern rice, generally this is the case, while the grassland nomads are mainly meat.
When I was in high school, I was a classmate from Hunan. Although he grew up in Henan, he still liked to eat rice. As long as he has not eaten rice in a day, for him, he has not eaten. Even if you have eaten noodles at noon, you still have to eat another bowl of rice to count as lunch.
I went to Guangzhou a few years ago, where I lived as a group. I ate rice every day. Even if I had some noodles and steamed buns, I couldn’t get used to it. Occasionally there are a few chances to go out to eat, I just want to eat some pasta. However, it is really difficult to find noodles in the Southern Small Hotel. Finally, I found a restaurant with fried noodles on its signature, but it turned out to be fried instant noodles. Later, I thought about it, why bother with each other?
Southerners generally refer to rice as "meal", while northerners mean eating, which refers to something that can fill the stomach, resist hunger, and last until the next meal.The scope is wider.
The main reason why it is called a staple food is that it can resist hunger and can provide the body with the main energy substances and nutrients. If you don’t eat staple food for a long time, even if you feel that your stomach is full, you always feel that your body lacks shortcomings. That feeling is actually the feeling of cells. What is lacking is energy, and what is lacking is a kind of natural air between heaven and earth.
Of course, scientifically speaking, carbohydrates are the main source of energy for the body. Looking at the crops that can be used as staple foods, such as rice, wheat, corn, sweet potatoes (during the Anti-Japanese War), potatoes (in Mongolia), etc., in addition to the higher sugar content, there is another point that is "magnetic solid", which is not in the stomach. It is digested and absorbed immediately, but it can stay in the intestines and stomach for a period of time, so that the stomach and intestines feel full, because this energy can be supplied for a long time, otherwise the stomach and intestines are empty. According to the feedback and negative feedback of the body, the brain will tell us that we are hungry. .
Eat staple food to support life, the most obvious is that children grow their bodies. Staple food can solidify our body foundation, nourish our qi and blood, and make our body appear to have basic vitality. As the saying goes, "honest". Children who do not like to eat staple foods are generally "yellow and thin".
When pregnant women in northern rural areas have just given birth, they will drink a bowl of noodle soup (body strength) first. When I was a child, I got diarrhea, and my parents would give a bowl of noodle soup to replenish vitality. I heard that rice noodles are generally the first choice for disaster relief.
Five to sixty years ago, there was not enough food at that time, and many people only had sweet potatoes to fill their stomachs. It was this sweet potato that saved the lives of a generation. At that time, people still worked and farmed without delay, and there were also many tall and strong people.
The same goes for animals.In the past, there was no dog food for dogs in rural areas, and they were not willing to feed meat. Sometimes they were fed two pots of corn batter and some vegetable leaves a day, and the dogs grew fat and strong, with smooth hair.
2. Full of nutrients and nourishment of non-staple food
First point out that sex here refers to temperament and character.
There are many kinds of non-staple food, why do you say that non-staple food is nourishing? One thing is that non-staple foods can provide a variety of nutrients to the human body, such as protein, inorganic ions, and various vitamins, which are all related to emotional diseases.
① dopamine is the material basis of human happiness
dopamine is the natural happiness element in our human body, and is the material basis of our happiness. Tyrosine is the raw material of dopamine, and many non-staple foods are rich in tyrosine. Although tyrosine is a non-essential amino acid and can be synthesized in the human body, it is far from enough if it is synthesized by the human body and not supplemented by external food.
②A variety of mental illnesses are related to vitamin deficiency
There are research reports that mental illness is related to vitamin deficiency. People with vitamin D deficiency are prone to depression, collapse, and emotional out-of-control; schizophrenia is related to vitamin B3; vitamin B1 deficiency can easily cause hyperactivity and inattention.
I don’t know how many people with mental illness were caused only by a certain vitamin deficiency.
③Vegetables and fruits can help defecation
If constipation , most people know to eat more fruits and vegetables to relieve it. But what I don't know is: long-term constipation can cause many emotional problems, such as mental tension, restlessness, insomnia and forgetfulness.
In Treatise on Febrile Febrile Diseases, most of the articles about purging agents (Da) Chengqi Decoction contain descriptions of "irritability" and "delirium".
Article 212: Typhoid fever,If you vomit, you will not understand, do not have a bowel movement for five or six days, up to more than ten days, and you will have hot flashes, not aversion to cold, and speak alone, like a ghost; if you are a dramatist, you will not know people and follow. Clothes touch the bed, alert and uneasy, panting slightly, looking directly, the pulse string is raw, the astringent is dead; the weak, but the fever, delirium, the big Chengqi soup, if you take advantage, stop taking it afterwards.
Many patients with mental mania have miraculously improved after using laxatives to lax their stools and relieve blood stasis.
3. Delicious but not touched, snacks nourish illness
Snacks are mostly junk food, not only non-nutrient, but also contain many additives, which can cause a variety of diseases, especially in children.
1. There are more than 25 kinds of additives in instant noodles. Among them, citric acid consumed by children caused hypocalcemia.
2. Sodium nitrite in the ham meets the smoky space and becomes a carcinogen in the body: nitrosamine.
3. Candied sodium benzoate and so on. Among them, sodium benzoate will destroy vitamin B1.
4. Potassium sorbate in jelly affects children's absorption of calcium.
5. Ice cream flavors, thickeners, synthetic colorings, etc. cannot be used in food under foreign regulations.
6. The sodium metabisulfite contained in biscuits can damage cells and is biologically toxic.
7. The sodium hexametaphosphate contained in milk tea can cause calcium metabolism disorders in .
8. Chewing gum contains aspartame, sorbitol, citric acid, etc. Too much sorbitol can cause diarrhea.
9. Sodium glutamate and disodium guanylate in potato chips. It is prohibited to be used in infant food abroad.
The carcinogenic effects of some additives can be hidden for decades.
Although snacks nourish disease,But everyone likes it, especially children. Snacks may not have any effect on our physical health, but they may help the mental health of children who have to eat snacks. Because snacks are weird, people picture a fresh one. Eating snacks can satisfy people's curiosity and desire for exploration.
For those children who have to eat snacks, if even the desire for early adopters of snacks is stifled, it will inevitably cause a lot of regrets, then this regret will be compensated in other ways, and they may pay more. The price.
You can have snacks, but you should pay attention to your health and don't overdo it. It is best to make the kind of healthy food yourself .
4. The ratio of six to three, the diet is balanced
If you compare a person to a tree sapling, then the staple food can make the sapling grow out of the main branches and have the shape of a pillar; the side food can be Make the branches fuller and leaves more oily green; the snacks are like earthworms under the tree, which can loosen the soil, transform the dead leaves into spring mud, and make the big tree form its own small ecosystem.
So how is a balanced diet? This ratio should be followed:
The ratio of main, auxiliary, and snacks is 6:3:1.
Another note: Don't eat too strong taste, the pursuit of taste stimulation will be led by the nose instead.
The production of plants is in accordance with the weather, and corresponds to the natural yin and yang. For example, when summer is hot, watermelon can relieve heat; southern fruits are more benign, and plants in cold regions are more hot, such as Tianshan snow lotus. So eat seasonal fruits and vegetables. Off-season vegetables and fruits will hurt the body's righteousness.
Eat less peculiar smell from rare birds. Many animals are spiritual, such as snakes, turtles, monkeys, etc. These animals are best not to eat.
