"Don't eat hairy food"

"Eat more liquid food" ...

We often hear such medical advice after seeing a doctor,

But what do these medical advice mean?

what is a "light diet"?

"light diet" is the dietary principle of many chronic diseases, but many people often misunderstand it when implementing the "light diet" program. Shi Cai, deputy director of the Nutrition Department of China-Japan Friendship Hospital, pointed out in the Health Times article in April 221 that the so-called "light diet" does not mean vegetarian food. "Clear" mainly refers to less oil, while "light" means less salt in cooking, less sugar, less hemp, spicy and other heavy flavors.

If you want to have a light diet, you should also pay attention to the invisible fat (salad dressing, cakes, western-style bread, etc.) and invisible salt (canned food, pickles, salted fish, salted eggs, sausages, etc.) in the food. The key to a light diet also includes reasonable cooking methods, giving priority to steaming, boiling, stewing, retting, mixing (warm mixing, cold mixing), frying, and avoiding frying and smoking. In addition, the light diet should also be diversified. The Dietary Guide for China Residents (216) clearly points out that the daily diet should include cereals, vegetables and fruits, livestock, fish, eggs, milk, soybeans and nuts, with an average intake of more than 12 kinds of food every day and more than 25 kinds every week.
