What's nutritious for seniors to eat?
The elderly to eat what is nutritious, I think the main thing is nutritional collocation. First, protein, this is the elderly preferred nutrients, that is, eggs, fish, lean meat and other things, every day must eat some of these things belong to the high-density lipoprotein food, but also to eat some soy products, oil products. Secondly, fat. That is, meat is appropriate to eat a little bit of fat is also beneficial. Third, starch. Cereals should not be wasted, also appropriate to eat some. Brain water to absorb the nutrients are mainly cereal staple food nutrients. If you only eat side dishes, do not eat staples, is likely to cause the brain lack of nutrients, and as for the cerebrum and cerebellum will be early atrophy. It may even lead to early onset of Alzheimer's disease. But in any case, the elderly intake of nutrition should pay attention to collocation to eat a mixture of food to achieve nutritional diversity, what things are not excessive what things are not not intake, that is, to eat a variety of food for good. Of course, due to the elderly's bad teeth, some gastrointestinal digestive function is not very good, so we must eat easy to digest things, do not eat difficult to digest things. And don't overdo it on which kind of food you want to eat.
As older people age, all their bodily functions gradually decline. Out of the demand for health, many elderly people attach great importance to health care. Some pharmacies for profit considerations, but also the elderly as the main force of health care consumption, but the elderly need to supplement what nutrition, how to supplement nutrition many people do not understand.
Nowadays, the general living conditions are good, and nutritional intake is not a problem. As long as appropriate consumption of protein-containing beans, eggs, fish, calcium-containing milk and milk products, iron-containing fungus, black sesame, beef, vitamin-containing mushrooms, coarse grains, etc., eat more green vegetables and fruits, and drink plenty of boiled water, the nutritional intake can be met under normal circumstances.
Elderly physiological functions decline, the intake of food can not be well digested and absorbed to become the main cause of malnutrition, many older people are also therefore a long time to make up for the nutrients but no effect. Therefore, the elderly should eat some yam, jujube, coix seed, lentils and other spleen and qi food to promote digestion and absorption. Elderly blood deficiency and fluid loss, appear due to the decline of kidney yang can not warm the spleen and stomach caused by digestive dysfunction, you can eat ginger, coriander, carrots, cherries, pomegranates and other warm tonic kidney yang vegetables and fruits.
According to the living conditions nowadays, the elderly generally do not need to take supplemental nutrition deliberately as long as their digestion and absorption are normal.
I eat a variety of porridge in the morning, with nuts, bamboo, black sesame, lily and white seeds cooked with milk powder, an egg and a small strip of sweet potato, half a tael of soft biscuits, a variety of vegetables cooked, two tael of frozen salmon cooked with ginger slices, a small amount of meals slowly divided into several meals, a small amount of fruit and a variety of flowers in the afternoon after a swim and in the evening a plain yogurt with a spoonful of plain honey.
To say that the nutrition that high protein class may be better, such as meat, eggs and poultry, but now people's eating habits should not lack of nutrients, in fact, we still adhere to a normal diet, to maintain a certain amount of fiber content is better, to maintain a smooth bowel movement to maintain good digestion and absorption capacity than anything else!
When it comes to nutrition, most people nowadays are overnourished and have enough nutrients for normal life.
