"Doctor Zhang, there are a lot of mooncakes at home, they are all given by relatives and friends. Can I eat them all? Does this thing have a big impact on blood lipids and blood sugar?" Aunt Wang asked me as soon as she met.
This is indeed a big problem for the people during this period of time. Today, Doctor Zhang will tell you in detail: "How to eat mooncakes healthier? Who should pay attention to eating less mooncakes?"
Eat mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, Doctor Zhang Zhiying mentioned it Wake up
Mid-Autumn Festival is here, and the festive atmosphere is gradually getting stronger. Every household now has a lot of mooncakes, some bought by themselves, and some are given by relatives and friends. But everyone should pay attention. Although mooncakes are delicious, they have high oil and sugar content. This has been like this since ancient times. As Su Shi's poem said in the Northern Song Dynasty: " small cakes are like chewing the moon, with crispy and sweets in it. " To put it bluntly, it means "moon cakes are delicious, and they are full of oil and Sugar. "It can be seen that moon cakes have been high-energy foods since ancient times, full of oil and sugar.
In modern times, the calories are generally marked on the label of mooncakes. Taking 100g mooncakes as an example, the calories are 1972 kJ, while the calories are 995 kJ for every 100g of large steamed buns. In other words, the energy contained in every 100g of mooncake is equivalent to the energy contained in 200g of large steamed buns. Or simply put, the energy of a small piece of ordinary mooncake is equivalent to two large steamed buns. Therefore, in the real world, some people should pay special attention to eating in moderation and in small amounts. So, who should pay attention to eating less mooncakes? Let Dr. Zhang say that the following five types of people should pay special attention to:
mooncake
1. People with high blood lipids should eat less mooncakes
mooncakes are a food with high fat and sugar content. As mentioned above, this has been the case since ancient times. In modern society, many people have high blood lipids, whether it is triglyceride or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Some mooncakes even have a fat content of up to 40%-50%. If you don’t believe it, you may put your mooncakes on a white tissue to see if there will be a large mimeogram in a while. A high-fat and high-sugar diet can quickly increase triglycerides in the human body. If the oil used in these mooncakes contains relatively high saturated fatty acids, it will also provide more raw materials for the liver, and then synthesize more cholesterol . Especially increase low-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

2, diabetes people should eat less
Mooncakes not only have high fat content, but also have high sugar content. For diabetic patients, they also need to eat mooncakes in moderation and not eat too much. Because eating too much can easily lead to increased blood sugar, especially blood sugar 2 hours after meals. For diabetic patients, it may be better to choose low-sugar or sugar-free mooncakes when they eat mooncakes.

3, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases patients
cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, patients should also pay attention to the people who eat mooncakes in moderation. Because almost all patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases need to control related risk factors such as blood lipids, blood pressure, and blood sugar, and try not to make the indicators of these risk factors exceed the standard. However, if these people eat too much mooncake, it is likely to cause blood lipids and blood sugar to exceed the standard, and eating it for a long time may cause more health risks. Therefore, I would like to remind patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases that they can eat mooncakes, and should not eat them in large quantities for a long time.
4, cholecystitis, gallbladder stones, and other biliary diseases
In addition to patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, there is actually another type of people who should pay attention to eating less moon cakes. This type of people are patients with cholecystitis and gallbladder stones. For these patients, you should pay attention to eating less high-fat diet , because high-fat diet can easily induce the attack of gallbladder disease, so it is generally recommended that patients with gallbladder disease try to eat less moon cakes.

5. People who lose weight
There are many people who lose weight now, and many of these people do not know that the energy of mooncakes is very high. After ingestion of a piece of mooncake, it is even equivalent to the calories of 2 large steamed buns, so if you are a person who is losing weight, it is best to eat less mooncakes.Because eating too much mooncake, exercise may not offset the energy intake. For example, if you eat an ordinary sugary mooncake, you may need to jog for 45 minutes to consume this mooncake, and if you swim, you will consume this mooncake. Even skipping rope will take half an hour. Let’s see if a piece of mooncake is not conducive to weight loss.
In short, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a reunion festival for us Chinese people, and eating moon cakes is also a traditional custom, but everyone does need to pay attention to controlling the amount and not eating too much unscrupulously. It is better to eat moon cakes in moderation. What do you think?
or above is my introduction to the healthy Mid-Autumn Festival. If you think it is good, you can forward it to your relatives and friends to benefit more people.
