High blood pressure , diabetes , hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases more and more people!
The reason is inseparable from our lifestyle and living habits, especially unhealthy diet is one of the main reasons for the high incidence of cardiovascular diseases.
Xi'an Jiaotong University study shows that eating unhealthy causes 36.9% of the world's cardiovascular disease deaths!
So what kind of diet is the main cause of death from cardiovascular disease?
Is it what people often say that eating too much meat and too much oil?
is not!
Is that what some people say is trans fatty acid ?
is not either!
What we usually hear most is that we eat too much meat and too much oil; it has been popular recently that trans fatty acids are the cause of cardiovascular blockage.
In fact, our blood vessel blockage is multi-factorial. Even if we are unhealthy in diet, it is a multi-factor result, not the only reason.
We cannot rely on imagination, we need to look at the data.
Research on "The Lancet" said that in 2017, cardiovascular death caused by unhealthy diet worldwide:
No. 1: sodium salt exceeds the standard.
second place: insufficient fruits.
Third place: Too much fine grains and not enough coarse grains. The top three
are not as meat-rich, oil-rich, and trans fatty acids.
Some people say that this is a foreign research and cannot explain our problem. Let’s take a look at our domestic research.
Xi'an Jiaotong University's research analyzed: the causes of global cardiovascular death in 2019.
No. 1: Too much fine grain and insufficient coarse grain, accounting for 19%.
second place: too much sodium salt, accounting for 17%.
third place: insufficient fruits, accounting for 13%.
Our data is 2019, and "The Lancet" is 2017, but the conclusion is almost the same. The top three do not have the trans fatty acids that some people say online. The top three of
are too much fine grain, too much sodium salt, and insufficient fruits. Of course, the ones that we usually know about
are the ones that we usually know about consuming too much oil, too much sugar, too little vegetables, insufficient aquatic products, insufficient nuts, etc.
Of course, trans fatty acids are naturally unhealthy. We should also control them in daily life, eat less or not.
The focus of popular science today:
1. The causes of blood vessel blockage are many factors, not one reason. Then whoever said that the cause of blood vessel blockage has been found, which is something. It basically means using the point to attract attention.
2. In addition to unhealthy diet, genetics, age, gender, smoking and drinking, obesity, exercise, etc. are all causes of blood vessel blockage. Therefore, to prevent blood vessel blockage, you must not only eat a healthy diet, but also stay away from smoking and drinking, controlling your weight, insisting on exercising, not staying up late, a good mentality, and other comprehensive and healthy life.
3. Even if unhealthy diet accounts for 36.9% of the causes of blood vessel blockage, it is not only trans fatty acids that cause blood vessel blockage. Too much fine grains, too much salt, too little fruit, too much oil, sugar, too little vegetables, etc. are all causes of blood vessel blockage.
4. A healthy diet is very important. A healthy diet is a low-salt, low-sugar, low-fine grain. At the same time, appropriately increase coarse grains, fruits, and vegetables, and appropriately consume nuts, aquatic products, dairy products and other diverse diets. Instead of just not eating trans fatty acids, or eating more onions, fungus, celery.
You can ask yourself:
Do I eat too much fine grains such as steamed buns, rice, etc.
Have I eaten steamed buns, corn, millet, brown rice , oats, buckwheat , mixed beans, sweet potatoes, yam and other coarse grains?
Does my sodium salt be controlled within 5g of every day?
Do I remind myself and my family every day to add a little fruit? Have you eaten 200-350g of fruit per person per day?
Have I prepared a good job of eating vegetables every day, every meal, 300-500g of vegetables per person every day?
Do I think about diversifying food every day, with more than 12 kinds of foods a day and more than 25 kinds of foods a week?
Three meals a day, I dare not be ungrateful. A healthy diet is the basis for preventing cardiovascular diseases. A healthy diet starts with three meals a day!
