What are the benefits of eating? Dinner within three meals a day is very important for everyone, and eating dinner is also good for our health. Next, I will show you the benefits of eating dinner.
What are the benefits of having dinner? 1 because the sun goes down, people's bodies begin to become weak, which is a good time to have a rest. After dark, the operation of human organs began to slow down and gradually entered a comfortable rest state. So, I don't have enough to eat at dinner. Eating too much dinner, the slow digestion of the body can not keep up with the workload of large portions of food, which will lead to excessive accumulation and acidification of food in the body.
In Chinese medicine, some people say that dinner is a healthy meal. Even if you eat dinner skillfully and well, many chronic diseases will not happen at all. The acidification of constitution and the generation of chronic diseases all start from dinner. It can be seen that you can't eat too much for dinner, and seven minutes is the most appropriate.
Generally speaking, minors should eat 1 bowl of rice or 1 bowl of porridge and pasta, 1 serving of meat and two servings of vegetables. For healthy adults, 1 half to two bowls of rice is appropriate, not more than two bowls. Meat should still adhere to 1 serving with 2-3 servings of vegetables. Middle-aged and elderly people can drink 1 bowl of porridge or eat 1 bowl of pasta, and should not eat too much.
Besides, don't have too much meat for dinner. Studies have found that people who often eat meat for dinner have three or four times higher blood lipids than vegetarians. Because at night, the human body is no longer energetic, and the passion for "eliminating" oil and animal fat is greatly reduced, which leads to a large accumulation of fat in the body and increases the probability of suffering from hyperlipidemia and hypertension. Middle-aged and elderly people suffering from hypertension and hyperlipidemia, eating meat at dinner is undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire, so that the cholesterol content in the body continues to rise.
You can't eat too much dinner, because it will affect sleep, and if you eat too much at the same time, your stomach will stop crawling after sleep, which will easily lead to food accumulation and constipation and affect your daily metabolism. So friends who often skip meals also hope to form a good habit.
What are the benefits of having dinner? Pay attention to five o'clock when eating dinner.
First of all, dinner is too late:
Some people even eat dinner at eight or nine o'clock in the evening, and the interval between eating time and sleeping time is too short, which is not conducive to food digestion and absorption, and is also not conducive to energy metabolism, which may easily lead to obesity or gastrointestinal diseases. It is best to finish dinner before 20 o'clock, and sleep more than 2 hours apart. This is especially important for patients with obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, hypertension and fatty liver.
Second, more meat and less vegetables for dinner:
People who have a bad breakfast and lunch, or who are underweight, should eat more protein food such as fish, meat and eggs for dinner. This compensation is right, but it is not enough. Because vegetarian foods such as coarse grains, green leafy vegetables and bean products may need more supplements. Any meal has more elements than meat, no matter what kind of meat it is, it should be cooked lightly with less oil and salt.
Three, eat too full for dinner:
At night, people have less physical activity, mainly rest and sleep, and their energy consumption is reduced. If they consume too much energy at dinner, they will accumulate in the body, leading to obesity, dyslipidemia, hyperglycemia, fatty liver and other diseases. And eating too much at dinner is not good for gastrointestinal health.
Fourth, eating too carelessly:
People who often work overtime can't go home for dinner, so they can only eat in fast food restaurants or order takeout, and hastily solve dinner in just ten minutes, just to fill their stomachs. In the long run, nutritional deficiency or imbalance will damage health, reduce physical fitness and destroy gastrointestinal and metabolic systems. It is hard to work overtime at night, so it is very necessary to have a well-matched and nutritious dinner.
Five, don't eat staple food for dinner:
Some people who lose weight don't eat staple food for dinner, and there are few dishes. They only eat fruit to satisfy their hunger. This extreme approach may be able to lose weight (whether you can lose weight depends on how you eat breakfast and lunch), but long-term starvation is harmful to your health, endangering your physique and immunity, and it is not easy to persist. The correct way to lose weight is to eat less staple food, strictly limit cooking oil, drinks and sweets, and eat more low-fat' protein' foods such as skim milk, egg white, fish and shrimp, and bean products.
What are the benefits of having dinner? What is the standard of a good dinner?
1, dinner diet is very important
Four hours before bed. Dinner time has a great influence on sleep quality. Generally speaking, after dinner, the stomach needs three hours to digest food and finally empty. If you eat dinner too late and your stomach is still trying to digest food, people will go to bed, and the quality of sleep is often poor, which makes you prone to insomnia and dreams. Because the best sleep time is around 22 o'clock in the evening, it is best to arrange dinner between 18- 19. If you can't eat dinner on time because of overtime and other reasons, try to ensure that the time interval between dinner and sleep is 2 hours. Need to be reminded that it is best to do running, yoga and other activities 2 hours after meals. Because the stomach is no longer heavy at this time, it has little effect on digestion and is easier to exercise.
Put down the chopsticks early. Three meals a day should be scientifically distributed in energy, with breakfast accounting for 25-30%, lunch accounting for 30-40% and dinner accounting for 30-40%. Numerically, breakfast can be eaten less than lunch and dinner. But people often can't meet the requirements for breakfast, but eat too much for dinner, which makes the proportion unbalanced. Because the human body consumes a lot of energy after breakfast and needs to concentrate on work and study, people can increase the amount of breakfast appropriately. After dinner, the activity is not large, and it is easy to accumulate fat. It's best to stop chopsticks when you are seven minutes full. Seven-point fullness should be like this: the stomach is not full, but the enthusiasm for food has dropped, and the speed of taking the initiative to eat has obviously slowed down, but I habitually want to eat more, but if I change the topic, I will soon forget to eat.
Check for leaks and fill gaps. The importance of dinner is also reflected in "checking for leaks and filling gaps". Before dinner, think about what you had for breakfast and lunch, and make up for today's lack of nutrition at night. For example, I didn't eat coarse grains in the first two meals, and steamed a sweet potato or a bowl of coarse cereal porridge at night; If you don't eat 500 grams of vegetables, you have to eat a big plate of vegetables for dinner ... to make up for the lack of food in the first two meals, and dinner can put a perfect end to the nutritional balance of the whole day.
Chew every bite slowly. Chewing slowly is not only helpful for food digestion and nutrient absorption, but also can control food intake, stabilize blood sugar and protect teeth, so chew slowly for three meals a day. It is best to chew a mouthful of rice about 20 times, and the elderly should chew it 25-50 times. Dinner is best controlled between 20-30 minutes.
Eat some bean products. You can eat some calcium-rich foods such as tofu, dried beancurd and yuba for dinner. Because calcium has the function of calming the spirit and inducing people to enter a stable sleep state, it is conducive to falling asleep at night. In addition, fungus foods such as auricularia auricula, tremella, Flammulina velutipes and Lentinus edodes are rich in dietary fiber and fungus polysaccharide, which is beneficial to the balanced nutrition of dinner.
2. Don't eat dinner on Wednesday.
Nowadays, dinner seems to be the only time in a day when you can enjoy food quietly. However, if you don't pay attention, it is easy to eat a lot of diseases, which is called disease from the mouth. Therefore, remember three don 'ts when eating.
First, don't eat too late.
The best time for dinner is between 5 pm and 7 pm, which happens to be when the sun goes down, that is, when the yang of our bodies begins to accumulate; This period of time also happens to be the time when the kidney meridian of foot shaoyin circulates, and the kidney meridian of foot shaoyin goes directly to the kidney, which is also the best time for our kidneys to absorb "nutrition". It can also be said that eating dinner at this time is the best time to tonify the kidney. The kidney is congenital, and the kidney is strong, so we are naturally not easy to get sick. Therefore, eating dinner at this time will not only help our bodies to store "energy", but also improve our ability to resist diseases.
Second, don't eat too much meat for dinner.
You shouldn't eat too much meat for dinner. Meat is a raw material. If you eat too much meat in the morning or at noon, it is relatively easy to digest, because the yang of the human body is in a vigorous stage at this time, and the gastrointestinal digestion ability is relatively strong and relatively easy to digest; If at night, that is, when the sun begins to set, the yang of the human body begins to accumulate gradually, and the yang outside begins to weaken gradually. At this time, the digestive ability of the gastrointestinal tract is naturally not as good as that in the early noon, so eating too much indigestible meat at this time will increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract, forcing the gastrointestinal tract to mobilize the "Yang" that should have accumulated and make the gastrointestinal tract excited. Such a result not only affects sleep, but also causes "stomach disharmony will not lie down." Besides, the meat is still hot. If you eat too much at night, it will speed up the operation of blood vessels and make them excited. This will lead to a sudden increase in blood pressure and blood lipids, and even cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Sudden death usually occurs at night, which is closely related to our dinner diet.
Third, don't eat too full.
Originally, the evening was the best time for our internal organs to repair themselves, or it was the time for our internal organs to rest. Eating too much at this time will inevitably increase the burden on the spleen and stomach, so that the spleen and stomach will lose time for self-repair or rest. After a long time, the function of the spleen and stomach will naturally decline. Spleen and stomach control the metabolism and operation of human qi and blood. If its function is weak, it will first affect the metabolism of qi and blood in the body, and then affect the operation of qi and blood in the body. Excess food can't be converted into qi and blood to run the whole body in time, or can't be metabolized in time, so it will be stored in the part under the jurisdiction of the spleen and stomach in the body, which is called spleen governing the abdomen. So you must see that people with big waists and bellies eat too much dinner and eat too much meat. Those excess foods that cannot be absorbed or discharged in time will synthesize fat and store it in the body, which will make people fat and cause hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. Spleen governs blood, and the operation of blood depends on the strength of temper. If the temper is weak, the running speed of blood will be weakened, the blood flow speed in blood vessels will slow down, and the blood vessel wall will naturally accumulate "residue", which will induce atherosclerosis over time.
