Light diet:
Compared with "fat, sweet and thick", a light diet means less oil and less salt, which is a healthy eating habit. From a nutritional point of view, a light diet is to reasonably match nutrition on the basis of food diversification. It is characterized by keeping the original flavor of food as much as possible, with light and peaceful taste, rich nutrition and easy digestion, which is more suitable for the elderly, children and people with light taste.

Dietary principles:
(1), seasoning with less salt and less spicy.
Adults' daily intake of salt should not exceed 6 grams. When cooking daily, you can add salt when the dishes are about to come out of the pot, which not only ensures the taste but also reduces the amount of salt. In addition to salt, fresh products such as monosodium glutamate and chicken essence, as well as all salty condiments such as soy sauce and bean paste also contain a lot of sodium, so you should eat less.
(2), a small amount of oil.
A light diet needs less oil and more variety. Peanut oil, rice bran oil, tea seed oil, low erucic acid rapeseed oil, refined olive oil, sunflower seed oil, soybean oil, etc. are best eaten regularly, and the daily cooking oil is 25~30 grams.
(3) Cooking is commonly used for cooking.
Quick-frying, stewing, steaming, boiling, etc. are often used to maximize the original flavor and nutrition of food. You should also learn how to mix a variety of ingredients. For example, it is best to cook meat with low-fat and high-fiber bacteria and algae ingredients, which can reduce the absorption of fat and cholesterol in the body.
(4) Eating meat is "white" and "thin"
The fat content of fat meat is high, so lean meat should be the main choice, and pork belly should be chosen less. Compared with livestock meat, white meat such as fish and poultry has relatively low fat content and high unsaturated fatty acid content, especially fish, which plays an important role in preventing dyslipidemia and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
(5) Control sugar intake
Eat less high-sugar food. The daily intake of added sugar should be controlled below 50 grams, preferably not more than 25 grams. The added sugar includes white sugar, rock sugar and brown sugar, as well as fructose, glucose and fructose syrup in desserts and sugary drinks.
