What food should elderly sugar friends often eat for good health?
The diet plan of elderly sugar friends should be more detailed, specific to every meal every day, such as breakfast, lunch and dinner. Even snacks between meals should be rationed. For example, eat a handful of nuts for lunch in the morning and a few pieces of fruit for lunch in the afternoon.
Many old people don't care about diet in their later years. When their children are at home, they will happily prepare a big banquet. When the children are away, they either eat takeout or make do. For a long time, the body's metabolism has been disordered, and even if the dose is increased or insulin is injected, the effect of sugar control will not be good.
Many old people like to eat sweet and soft food, but most sweet and soft things rise sugar quickly. It is suggested that the elderly who love sweets can eat some fruits with low glycemic index, such as:
Mulberry, rich in vitamins and trace elements, is rich in nutrition and is also known as the "sacred fruit of the people"! Every summer is the time when mulberries mature.

Papaya, there are many papayas in the supermarket. The pulp is thick and delicate, sweet and soft, with wonderful aroma and sweet juice. Papaya has high nutritional value, containing 65,438+07 kinds of amino acids and minerals, as well as unique papain and papain ... half a papaya is enough to supplement the vitamin C needed by the elderly every day. Papaya is also called "papaya" Eating more can prolong life. Old people in the north may not be used to the taste of papaya, so they can make papaya stewed milk or papaya mixed with yogurt. The combination of milk fragrance and fruit fragrance is very delicious.
Nuts are sweet and delicious, and are the essence of plants. They contain protein, oil, minerals, vitamins and other nutrients, which contribute to the growth and development of human body and can also enhance physical fitness. Most nuts are troublesome to eat, and many middle-aged and elderly sugar friends don't like them. But pumpkin seeds are an exception.
Pumpkin is one of the daily staple foods for sugar friends. As long as the seeds are dug out and washed when making pumpkins, a little treatment is a delicious snack. Pumpkin seeds can help the elderly to lubricate their intestines and have many benefits.
Sugar friends can't lack dietary fiber in their daily diet. They should eat more green vegetables. Kelp seedlings are a good choice. They are low in calories, full of gum, tender, smooth and refreshing, delicious whether fried, mixed or cooked, and rich in minerals and trace elements. When the appetite is not open, eating a plate of cold kelp seedlings will give you great satisfaction.
Sugar friends can't help eating meat, and chicken is warm and nourishing, which has a good nourishing effect on the body of sugar friends. Chicken contains vitamins C and E, etc. And the content of protein is also very high. Chinese medicine believes that chicken is sweet and slightly warm, which is the most suitable warming tonic for people with physical weakness. From the perspective of modern medicine, the fat content of chicken is lower than that of pork and beef, and the appreciation of sugar is not high. As long as you remove the chicken skin and pay attention to the cooking methods with less oil and salt, eating chicken often is very beneficial to the condition of sugar friends.
There are many kinds of chickens. Black-bone chicken has the best nourishing effect, especially suitable for female sugar friends. The nutrition of farm chicken is also very good, and the chicken is tight and chewy. The most common meat-eating chicken in supermarkets is fresh and tender, which is more suitable for elderly sugar friends.
