The elderly should drink soy milk before morning exercise

  For some elderly people with diabetes, their ability to regulate blood sugar will decrease when their stomach is empty, which can easily lead to hypoglycemia. The consequences may be more pronounced if you run on an empty stomach.

  In the same way, those with unstable blood pressure elderly , after a night of sleep, the blood volume in the body will decrease, and the blood pressure regulation function will decrease accordingly. If energy is not replenished in time, the dilation of blood vessels after exercise, coupled with insufficient blood volume, can easily lead to insufficient blood supply or hypoxia to the brain, causing orthostatic hypotension. In particular, the vasoconstriction function of the elderly is not as good as that of young people, and they are more likely to feel dizzy and cause accidents.

  Therefore, Director Wang suggested that the elderly should add some watery, easily digestible and high-calorie foods before morning exercise, such as soy milk, oatmeal, porridge, or eat some cakes, bread, etc. It should be noted that drinking milk can easily bloat your stomach and make you uncomfortable during exercise, so it is best not to drink it.
