During the Spring Festival, how to eat meat to be healthy

Every holiday fat ten pounds, the Spring Festival is approaching, the table of all families have become the “big fish and meat” of the world, especially in the north, from New Year’s Eve onwards, the table can not do without pork elbow, chicken stew, braised meat and so on, not to mention what fat sausage, sausage. With the development of the times, coronary heart disease and other diseases have become the main disease that endangers human health, light diet has become the mainstream of health. So what kind of meat to eat during the Chinese New Year and how to eat meat to be healthy? Here is our team to talk to you: first of all, to reduce the consumption of bacon, bacon, sausages and other meat. Because these meats, not only contain a lot of saturated fatty acids, but these meats have high levels of nitrites. Bacon and bacon have been proven to be important carcinogens that cause digestive tract tumors. Moreover, the salt content of these meats is particularly high, which also has the effect of raising blood pressure and increasing sodium and water retention, making them particularly unsuitable for people with high blood pressure and heart disease. So we recommend that these types of foods can be eaten sparingly, it is best not to eat. Secondly, many people like to do their own roast meat in the Spring Festival to eat. And their own grilled meat is often not good to master the scale, raw and cooked control is not good. If the meat is baked at high temperature, the black baked part contains “benzo(a)pyrene”, which is also one of the causes of cancer, so reduce the consumption of baked meat. In addition, if the meat is not sufficiently heated during the grilling process, part of the meat may have parasite residue, which may also be dangerous to health. In addition to eating roast meat, it is easy to eat too much meat at one meal, which may increase the possibility of a sharp rise in blood triglycerides, triggering diseases such as severe pancreatitis. So we recommend eating as little barbecued meat as possible. Even if you want to eat it, it should be in moderation. The way meat is cooked is important. We suggest that the “stew” method may be healthier. Longer stews can reduce cholesterol in meat by 30-50%. Other relatively healthy cooking methods are shabu-shabu and steamed meat, in that order. However, despite the use of stews, we recommend that you do not drink broth if possible. This is because during the stewing process, a large amount of purine content is dissolved in the broth, which can increase blood uric acid levels when it is practical. For patients with gout, broth should be even more of a taboo. Eat more white meat and less red meat. During the Spring Festival eat meat, low-fat, high-protein fish, chicken, shrimp meat is of course the first choice. Because even the lean pork, beef will hide a lot of fat you can not see, and chicken, fish, as long as you choose the right parts, the same fat content is less. But even the same meat, different parts, because the fat content is not the same, the calories are also different. Therefore it is very crucial to eat which piece of meat. For example, chicken wing tips are higher in calories than chicken breasts because they are mostly chicken skin and fat. The elderly body function degenerates, eat more red meat prone to cardiovascular disease and cognitive impairment, should eat white meat is better; children are in the developmental period, both kinds of meat should be eaten. There must be noted that people suffering from obesity, three high chronic diseases, can eat more fish from the deep sea, less poultry and livestock meat products. It should be noted that the meat that can not eat, even if put in the refrigerator, if kept for too long, is not a whole. It is recommended that you cut the meat into small pieces and put them in the refrigerator, and do not store them for too long. Some people like to put a large piece of meat into the refrigerator and repeatedly defrost quick-freeze. This way meat is extremely vulnerable to bacterial contamination during repeated thawing. The surface of the meat has deteriorated and can pose a health risk. For heart patients, it is recommended that you continue to maintain a light diet during the Chinese New Year and eat as little meat as possible, or if it is difficult to tolerate, to consume less than 50 grams per day, preferably fish and poultry. We wish every one of you a healthy and happy Chinese New Year.
