healthy eating song

Omnivorous without partiality, enough in quantity without greed for too much, smooth with body without twisting. All the Internet celebrity diets that have been praised to the sky, in essence, as long as they meet these three standards, they are feasible for you. Otherwise, it will be useless no matter how popular they are.

A while ago, I met a girl who had just entered college. In order to follow the trend of cutting off carbon dioxide by wearing a small skirt, she ate boiled broccoli and chicken breast. She lost eight pounds in two months after eating it. My aunt also stopped for three months. When she came, her face was as yellow as a three-day old orange peel. She told me that "the Internet said this is a detoxification reaction of healthy eating", which made me laugh and cry. What’s interesting is that eight out of ten people around me who follow this kind of extreme diet were deceived by the saying “healthy diet = harsh food taboos”. One person gave up on milk tea, and the other person didn’t even dare to touch staple food. In the end, they were so hungry that they couldn’t help but eat three packs of biscuits in the middle of the night. Instead, they gained three kilograms more than before, which was not worth the gain.

The major diet schools that are making a lot of noise on the Internet right now, such as ketogenic, Mediterranean, vegetarian, and paleo diets, actually have their own applicable scenarios, so there is really no need to step on each other. Ketogenic was first used to treat refractory epilepsy in children, and it does have clear clinical results. Some patients with severe insulin resistance can also improve their indicators under the guidance of a doctor. However, ordinary people try it on their own and end up with ketoacidosis, hair loss, and aunt disorder. I have encountered more than ten cases in the past six months. ； If the vegetarian diet is properly combined and supplemented with enough B12, iron and high-quality protein, it will indeed help reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. However, if you eat vegetables and steamed buns every day, anemia and weakened immunity will be a matter of time. I know two old experts who have been engaged in nutrition all their lives. One has been a vegetarian for thirty years. At the age of 72, his physical examination indicators are better than those of young people. He eats a handful of nuts and two pieces of dried tofu every day and never stops taking supplements. ； The other is a meat-free person who wants to have a small bowl of braised pork every meal, but only eats a small half bowl, and fills two large plates with side dishes. His blood lipids and blood sugar are also normal. After all, there is no absolutely correct dietary template. The one that suits your body is the best.

In the five years I have been working as a nutritionist, I have provided diet plans for more than 300 people, and I have never asked anyone to completely quit a certain food. Last week, I adjusted the diet of a 70-year-old diabetic man. He has been drinking white porridge all his life. I didn't ask him to give up directly. I asked him to cook half rice, half oats and chickpeas, and drink half a bowl each time, with a plate of cold vegetables and a boiled egg. The blood sugar test has been very stable in the past half month, and the old man is also happy. He said that it is so comfortable to not have to eat food. There is also a little boy who is in elementary school. His mother did not allow him to touch snacks before, but he secretly bought Sanwu spicy sticks to eat at the school gate. Later, I asked his mother to buy a pack of original potato chips for him every Friday after school, and allowed him to eat them with cartoons. Now the child no longer thinks about buying spicy sticks secretly, and his meals are more delicious.

I have come across a lot of outrageous "health knowledge" before, such as "Fruit can only be eaten in the morning, and it will be cold if eaten in the afternoon" and "Eating ginger at night is equivalent to eating arsenic." To be honest, if you go to bed at two in the morning and get up at ten in the morning, then the fruit you eat in the morning is no different from what others eat at three in the afternoon. The nutritional content will not change with the clock, nor will it disappear out of thin air with the "cold and heat" label you put on it. Someone else told me that "white rice and white noodles are the root of all evil." I asked him, those marathon runners who replenish glycogen before the game all eat white rice and white steamed buns. If you let them eat brown rice and quinoa, their stomachs can't digest it and they will quit the race halfway through the race. There is no absolute bad food, only inappropriate eating methods and amounts.

I usually provide science information to people who consult me. I thought it was too much to remember, so I made up a few catchy lines. They are not serious songs, but if ordinary people follow them, they will basically not make big mistakes:

Eat buds in spring, melons in summer, fruits in autumn, and roots in winter.

Mixed grains are mixed with rice and cooked, and each staple food is a fistful.

Dip some meat, eggs, vegetables and milk into it. Put it in a bowl when you are about seven to eight times full.

Milk tea and potato chips can be eaten occasionally, not every meal.

Stop fighting with your mouth, eat comfortably and happily, and nourish people more than any sky-high-priced supplements.

Oh yes, this is the "Healthy Eating Song" that is most real to me.
