At noon, pickles and pickled pickles are indispensable as side dishes on the table. The staple food is mostly rice and noodles, and occasionally I eat leftovers left over from yesterday, especially dinner.
Aunt Zhang has taken this prescription for decades, but as early as two years ago, she had high blood pressure and still couldn't quit. In her words: "Let me not eat pickles, what's the point of being a man! The food is tasteless. "
Modern people's diet recipes are four words: heavy oil and heavy salt. Three meals a day is inseparable from salt. Without salt, people can't maintain their normal state. But eating too much salt and taking too much sodium can easily lead to hypertension and many cardiovascular diseases.
Excessive sodium intake, what are the "signals" of the body? Let Miao Jie tell you that when these symptoms appear, it is to remind you that it is time to limit salt!
The main component of salt is sodium chloride, which forms an aqueous solution to decompose sodium ions and chloride ions after entering the human body. Sodium can maintain human blood volume and osmotic pressure of cells in vivo, improve the excitability and stress of nerves and muscles, and is a substance that stimulates muscle activity; Chloride ion can regulate the acid-base balance of human body and play an important role in maintaining the normal hormone level of the body. Therefore, in ancient times, salt was a healthy condiment, especially for manual workers, and salt intake had a certain positive effect on it. However, with the improvement of modern living standards, the types of flavoring agents are rich, and so are the types of food. Salt is no longer an important flavoring agent, and its intake is increasing. More and more people should realize that excessive intake of salt will have certain side effects and even threaten life and health.
1. Hypertension: The kidney is an important organ for decomposing toxic and harmful substances. Excessive salt intake will increase the operating burden of the kidney, lead to salt retention in the body, and cause physiological edema, which can promote the increase of blood pressure and form hypertension. If it is a person with poor renal function or kidney inflammation, it is even more impossible to excrete excess salt, and salt retention will be aggravated.
2, gastric cancer: excessive salt intake will increase gastric irritation, leading to excessive secretion of gastric acid and pepsin, leading to gastric mucosal inflammation, gastric swelling, gastric bleeding, gastric ulcer and other diseases, long-term excessive intake will lead to an increased risk of gastric cancer.
3. Cataract: Many people don't understand the relationship between salt intake and eye diseases. In fact, too high salt will lead to a much higher risk of cystic cataract, which is highly induced for cataract.
1, dry mouth: too much salt intake will increase the bitterness in the mouth, and it will also cause water imbalance in the body. The kidneys can't eliminate toxins, so the body will instinctively send out a thirst signal to remind you to increase water intake.
2, always want to urinate: too much salt intake will increase the number of kidney fluid solutions, resulting in excessive burden on the kidney. The kidney will increase the number of urination in order to remove excess garbage from the body, but the urine output is not much at a time.
3, the fingers become thicker: the most obvious thing about excessive salt intake is water retention, and the taste causes the outside world to actively absorb water, resulting in excessive water and edema in the body. Finally, you will find that your fingers are obviously thicker.
4. Headache: Excessive sodium intake every day has a stimulating effect on the nerves in the head, causing neurological disorders. The short-term situation is a headache. This headache lasts for a long time and cannot disappear with rest. It will be relieved after the toxin is discharged.
5. Slow response: Many people don't know that eating salty food really hinders thinking. This is because it will cause excessive dehydration of the body, and after dehydration, the blood circulation of the human body will also slow down, and the blood supply to the brain will be insufficient, so the reaction will slow down.
1. Many cooking methods, such as steaming, roasting and boiling, are used. They can not only ensure the freshness of ingredients, but also reduce the salt to ensure the delicious food, which is a relatively healthy way to control salt.
2. Try to choose rich flavor ingredients when cooking, which can increase the richness of food and reduce the increase of salt, such as onions, tomatoes, green peppers, onions and other top foods.
3. When adding flavoring, add sour flavoring as much as possible, which can replace the intake of salt and soy sauce to a certain extent, and make the food taste richer, more layered and more delicious.
4. Do more cold dishes and less cooking. The amount of seasoning added to cold salad is less, so the salt can be put in the last step when making, which can control the dosage well.
5. If you can dip in seasoning to eat vegetables, try to put seasoning in dipping vegetables to reduce salt intake. The salt content of soy sauce is very high, and every 6ml of soy sauce contains salt1g.
6, drink more soup, put less salt in the soup, which can not only regulate the gastrointestinal circulation, but also bring the salt in the mouth to the stomach and reduce oral diseases, especially those who already have oral diseases.
Nowadays, there are too many processed foods, and people are too greedy for the stimulation of taste, which leads to the abuse of flavoring agents. Salt has become the first flavoring agent, so most people have excessive salt intake every day. If you want to develop good eating habits, it is best to cook at home and strictly control the salt intake in food, which will help reduce the inflammatory reaction of the body and be more conducive to health.
