Precautions for eating
1 Whole wheat bread is often favored by dieters because of its rich dietary fiber. However, there are always two sides to everything. If you eat whole wheat food too singly, it will cause imbalance in human nutrition intake. Therefore, whether whole wheat bread is used as breakfast, Chinese food or dinner, it should be properly matched with some meat, eggs, milk, nuts and enough vegetables to ensure a balanced diet. ?
2. Children over 2 years old can start eating whole wheat and bread to cultivate the good habit of loving and "coarse" food, but the intake should be controlled. The development of children's digestive system is not perfect, with less saliva secretion, fewer teeth and poor chewing ability. Eating too much cellulose will damage the stomach and cause indigestion.
3. When purchasing whole wheat bread, be sure to read the ingredient list and nutrient composition list clearly, and choose whole wheat bread without adding extra or less sugar and oil.
