First: Eat less meat
Many elderly people actually like eating meat and fatty foods just like young people, but this is not good for their health. Because this will not only lead to nutritional imbalance and metabolic disorder in the body, but also make it easier to suffer from diseases such as hypertension or hyperlipidemia, and even cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in severe cases. It's hot in summer, so eating meat often leads to getting angry. Therefore, the elderly should eat more foods that can strengthen the spleen and relieve summer heat, such as bitter gourd, tofu, mung bean and corn.
Second: Eat less sweets
Although many elderly people are old, they still eat some ice cream to cool down in summer. And sweets such as ice cream contain a lot of sugar, which leads to more calories. If middle-aged and elderly people eat too many sweets, it is easy to get angry, and it will also affect the function of the spleen and stomach, and eventually there will be a loss of appetite and indigestion.
Third: Drink less cold drinks
The spleen and stomach function of the elderly is gradually deteriorating, and it will further decline because of the hot weather in summer. If you eat some cold food or cold drinks, the damage to the spleen and stomach is very great. Although cold drinks can effectively relieve summer heat and reduce fever, they will cause adverse stimulation to the mucosa of the digestive tract, which will not only slow down the peristalsis, but even cause convulsions and stomachaches. Old people should drink less cold drinks or raw food, and they should not drink too strong tea.
Fourth: Pay attention to hygiene
Older people should actually eat more food that can clear away heat. These fruits and vegetables contain a lot of vitamins and trace elements, which can effectively regulate the balance in the body, so the elderly should eat more watermelons, bitter melons, tomatoes, strawberries and so on. However, fresh melons and fruits must be cleaned before they can be eaten, so as to effectively prevent all kinds of intestinal infectious diseases in summer. Besides, raw food and cooked food should be separated, and they should not be mixed together. At the same time, attention should be paid to disinfection. You can also eat more garlic or vinegar every day, which can effectively sterilize and detoxify, and at the same time, it can effectively increase your appetite. Because bacteria breed very fast in summer, it is best not to eat food overnight, but to cook it now and eat it now.
Fifth: replenish water and salt in time
The temperature is higher in summer, so people will sweat more easily, which may break the metabolic balance of water and salt in human body. Summer health care must be supplemented with water in time, which is the basis of health care. The human body should take in at least 2,5 milliliters of water every day, so that the excess wastes and toxins in the body can be excreted.
