In recent years, with people's habit of healthy eating more and more deeply rooted in people's hearts, many people's circle of friends has also blown up a "grazing wind", which is what we want to say about light food products. Light food in catering industry is slowly rising, especially becoming the new favorite of young people.
Many people may not be familiar with the mention of "light food", but light food has indeed become the darling of the weight loss and fitness community.
The word "light food" is often spoken, which is the jargon of the industry. Friends who don't take a few photos of light food are embarrassed to say that they are working out.
Some people can't help wondering, what is this light food that is quietly popular and makes fitness people fall in love at first sight?
It is not a specific food, but a food form, mainly based on low-fat, low-oil, low-salt and high-satiety cooking such as cold salad, boiling and steaming. The pursuit is simple, balanced and healthy eating habits under normal eating habits and certain calorie intake.
Today, when "advocating new foods" is advocated, light eating has evolved into a dietary concept and a lifestyle that pursues a "balanced, simple and moderate" diet.
A light diet requires "light taste", "light weight" and "light stomach burden"
The "lightness" of eating lightly refers not only to the ingredients, but also to the eating mood without pressure and burden, because you know that the food you eat is healthy, and you don't have to consider the problems of obesity and excessive oil.
Light food is famous for its low calorie, high protein and high fiber. When you look at the colorful fruits and vegetables on the shiny dish, many people can't help but exclaim. Is light eating "eating grass"? Isn't this a vegetarian and pure diet meal?
Actually, it is not. Vegetarianism advocates grains, fruits and vegetables, and lacks high-quality animal protein such as meat, eggs and milk. A balanced and comprehensive diet should be considered for light food. In addition to fresh fruits and vegetables, boiled eggs, chicken breast, salmon, cod and other high-protein ingredients are very common, which fully conforms to the principle of diverse food types recommended by the China Residents' Guide to Balanced Diet.
Diet refers to low-calorie food, which mainly depends on reducing the energy intake of the human body, opening the energy gap and helping dieters achieve the purpose of losing weight.
There are two kinds of diet meals on the market. One is meal replacement powder series, which is mainly composed of various miscellaneous grains. High-fiber grains provide a feeling of fullness and make you eat less overall.
The other is the "zero sugar" series, which is a typical "ketogenic diet". The main method is to cut off the staple food and only provide lean meat and fruits and vegetables, so that the human body can mobilize the body's fat decomposition for energy in a diet lacking carbohydrates.
No matter what kind of diet meal, it is difficult to achieve the nutritional balance advocated by light food while ensuring low calories.
Light food advocates a balanced, nutritious and low-calorie diet. Its effect may not be as fast as that of the diet, but long-term consumption can really achieve the purpose of keeping fit and losing weight.
The basic principle of Dietary Guidelines for China Residents (20 16) is the best guiding principle of light diet.
Food is diverse, mainly cereals, with thick and thin collocation; Eat more vegetables, fruits and potatoes, and emphasize that the daily diet is rich in dietary fiber.
Eat milk, soybeans or their products every day; Eat proper amount of fish, poultry, eggs and lean meat, and emphasize eating high-quality protein every day.
Reduce the consumption of edible oil, light diet and low salt, emphasize low sugar, low fat and low salt, and pursue authentic and healthy cooking methods, frying less and frying less.
I ate too much. The distribution of three meals should be reasonable, the snacks should be moderate, and the enjoyment of food should be emphasized without burden and pressure.
Light food is suitable for most people, especially for patients with three high, diabetes, cancer and other diseases, as well as fitness people, but if malnutrition or gastrointestinal function is weak, the proportion of dietary fiber can be appropriately reduced.
It needs to be reminded that a light diet is only for enjoying low-burden and low-stress food. In order to keep healthy, besides a reasonable diet, exercise is also essential.
