      ask: elderly How to eat nutritiously in your diet?
      
      Answer: Elderly people should pay attention to food matching to achieve the purpose of disease prevention and health care.
      
      Prevent bowel cancer: grains + vegetables + red Grape liquor
      
      People who like to eat all kinds of grains, fresh vegetables and drink moderate amounts of red wine have a significantly lower risk of bowel cancer. Because red wine contains aspirin, it helps reduce the risk of cancer.
      
      Prevent heart disease: apple + tea
      
      Dutch medical researchers believe that apples, onions, and tea can reduce the incidence of heart disease. Because these foods contain large amounts of flavonoids, natural chemical antioxidants. Men who insist on drinking more than 4 cups of tea a day can reduce the risk of dying from heart disease by 45%, and those who eat more than one apple can reduce the risk by half.
      
      Prevent calcium deficiency: tofu + fish
      
      Cooking fish with tofu is not only delicious, but also can prevent calcium deficiency such as osteoporosis and rickets in children. Because tofu contains a lot of calcium, if you only eat tofu, the body's absorption rate of calcium will be very low, but eating it with fish rich in vitamin D can greatly increase the absorption and utilization of calcium.
      
      Prevent stroke: spinach + carrot
      
      Eating a certain amount of spinach and carrots every day can significantly reduce the risk of stroke. This is mainly due to beta carotene, which can be converted into vitamin A, which prevents cholesterol from accumulating on the blood vessel walls, keeps the brain blood vessels open, and thus prevents stroke.
      
      Defend stomach cancer : Folic acid + selenium yeast
      
      Both folic acid and selenium yeast have the effect of preventing gastric cancer. A variety of green leafy vegetables, mushrooms, animal liver and kidneys, etc. are all "rich minerals" of folic acid and selenium, so you might as well eat more.
