The TV show “Let’s Get Married” was a hit a while ago, bringing joy to everyone, but as a nutritionist, I have some new opinions. There is a scene in the plot where Fruitan’s father goes out to steal red meat and is discovered by Fruitan’s mother, and the two of them have a big fight at home. The reason why the mother did not do meat dishes at home is because the experts on TV said that eating more meat is not good, so they simply do not eat. When we look at the poor appearance of Fruitan’s father in the drama, I believe that many people will have resonance: the words of experts cannot be trusted, look, how poor we are if we don’t eat meat. In fact, the expert’s words are not wrong, eating more meat is not good, but the mother of Fruit of the Loom did too absolute, so it led to the poor result of Fruit of the Loom dad. So, whether we should eat meat or not, this question is actually very simple, should. The real difficulty is how much meat we can eat in the end, which is the key to this problem. Experts say that eating more meat is not good, how much meat is considered too much to eat? This is also when I communicate with patients, they often ask me the question, in fact, the Chinese Nutrition Society in its publication “Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents” has a very specific number of description: livestock and poultry meat 50 to 75 grams; fish and shrimp 75 to 100 grams. This is the total amount of meat that a normal person can consume in a day. With the value is not enough, to be specific to the three meals a day, even if there are three people eating at home, most of us may not be able to do livestock and poultry meat, fish and shrimp are complete diet structure. So according to the food exchange conversion, we can probably ensure that 2 to 3 servings of meat every day on it, that is, if you eat stewed ribs today, that kind of small ribs with a bone, about two pieces even if a copy of it. We eat a day 5 to 6 pieces on the line. But usually a stew at home on a large pot, noon and evening, two meals for three people are finished, needless to say, it is certainly too much. A pot of stew is fine, but in order to balance cooking and nutritional health, the best way is to divide it into several portions according to the daily serving size, and each time you eat, take it out and reheat it. This is not a hassle and will not be overdone. If you feel that eating only 5 to 6 small ribs at a time is not too enjoyable. We want to satisfy the psychological need of eating meat while ensuring nutrition and health. We can also replace the animal meat with poultry or fish and shrimp, these two types of meat products, rich in protein, but the fat content is relatively small, the amount of consumption can be slightly more relaxed than the animal meat. Of course, if you just want to eat animal meat, okay, we can replace the small ribs with shredded meat, stir-fried into the dish or do not eat ribs, cavity bones, these measures can also meet our psychological desire to eat meat, but at the same time does not increase the amount of meat consumption, you think about it, eat a cavity bone, half a day’s effort, just a little meat, unlike eating ribs, the bone removed, a piece of meat into the mouth. Right? So, in general, it is right not to eat too much meat, but we should not be so strict that we lose the joy of life. With the basic principles in mind, and within reason, we can also enrich the table and make good food come to our stomachs.
