Three principles of diet for the elderly

 　　Eating too much low-fat oil is harmful to the body. A high-fat diet, especially a diet high in animal fat, is associated with cardiovascular disease disease , cholecystitis, and pancreatitis are closely related.

　　When the average person's daily animal food intake reaches 150 grams, the amount of cooking oil should be controlled to about 20 grams. elderly Less activity means less fat is consumed, so it is better to eat less, especially animal fats. If your diet is mainly vegetarian, you can add a little fat in moderation.

　　Low-sugar elderly people often eat high-sugar foods, which can cause more harm than good. Because the elderly consume less energy and their blood sugar regulation function gradually weakens, they often eat sweets and candies, which can easily lead to dental caries, calcium deficiency, obesity, and diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular and other diseases.

　　Low salt salt is the main source of chlorine and sodium in the human body. However, eating salty food frequently can cause water retention in the body and increase cardiac blood output, which can easily lead to kidney disease and high blood pressure.
