/kloc-Mr. Lin, 0/58 years old, suffers from hypertension. Although it is usually well controlled, the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. Facing the barbecue invitation from friends and relatives, he was very upset. He was worried that eating too much would affect his blood pressure, so he went to Taipei Tzu Chi Hospital for nutrition consultation. Nutritionist Xu reminded Mr. Lin that in addition to the precautions for barbecue, he also provided homemade barbecue sauce recipes to let Mr. Lin enjoy the food with peace of mind.
Repeated application of barbecue sauce, excessive salt and sugar is not good for patients with chronic diseases.
In addition to moon cakes, grapefruit and other seasonal ingredients, barbecue has almost become a national sport in the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, many people have been smearing barbecue sauce during barbecue, but in the view of nutritionists, this is an indispensable health crisis.
Nutritionist Xu pointed out that many people will pickle the ingredients with sauce before eating barbecue, repeatedly apply barbecue sauce during the barbecue process, and unconsciously consume too much salt and sugar, which is very harmful to the health of patients with chronic diseases.
Nutritionist: Repeated application of sauce during barbecue can easily lead to bad table due to sodium intake.
The average person's daily sodium limit is 2400 mg. According to the nutrition label of barbecue sauce, the sodium content per 10 g is 230 mg. If every food is coated with 2-4 layers of sauce repeatedly, the intake of sodium will easily spoil the table. In addition, many people will choose processed foods on the market as barbecue ingredients. Nutritionist Xu explained that in order to prolong the shelf life of food and increase the flavor of food, most processed foods contain food additives, such as quality improvers and preservatives, and they are also made by using a large number of seasonings and frying methods, with high phosphorus content. If you take too much, it may have adverse effects on your health.
Nutritionist Xu reminds people to follow the following principles and use healthy raw materials to make their own sauces, so that they can be eaten safely and healthily:
1. Follow the principle of "three less and one more", less sauce, less processing, less drinks and more vegetables.
2. Two spoonfuls of barbecue sauce is enough. Don't put sauce on the ingredients repeatedly.
3. Choose natural ingredients that can see the prototype of food and avoid processing food.
4. Use sugar-free drinks instead of sugary drinks to avoid excessive calorie intake.
5. Patients with chronic kidney disease are advised to scald Sichuan before baking to avoid excessive potassium intake.
Patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension, nephropathy and cardiovascular diseases vary from person to person. It is recommended to consult a doctor or dietitian to avoid physical burden. The following healthy recipes of "fruity barbecue sauce" are also shared, so you may wish to do it yourself:
