What should menopausal women pay attention to in diet?
In recent years, medical experts have proved that some women have gained weight, high blood cholesterol and arteriosclerosis after menopause, and should pay attention to the following points in diet:

(1) Control weight. Don't overeat every meal. Staple food should be properly restricted, and you can eat more coarse grains. Eat less fried greasy food and sugary snacks and fruits. You can eat more green leafy vegetables to supplement vitamins C and B, improve vascular permeability and increase the body's resistance, thus preventing the development of arteriosclerosis and reducing the formation of tumors.

(2) Vegetable oil should be used when cooking, because most animal oils can increase cholesterol, and vegetable oil can not only promote cholesterol metabolism, but also supply a variety of unsaturated fatty acids, such as linolenic acid, linolenic acid and arachidonic acid. Among vegetable oils, sunflower seed oil, soybean oil, sesame oil and peanut oil are better.

(3) Restrict foods with high cholesterol, such as animal brain, roe, egg yolk, fat meat, animal internal organs, etc. Protein can eat milk, lean meat, fish and shrimp, bean products and so on. Eat more fish and bean products, because bean products are rich in protein, as well as a variety of inorganic salts and vitamins, such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin B 1, B2 and so on. Unsaturated fatty acids contained in fish can change the structure of lipoproteins, increase the proportion of high-density lipoproteins, promote the metabolism of cholesterol and prevent the formation of arteriosclerosis. It is the first choice animal protein food for menopausal women.
