Drink pickles and rice porridge. Do you think it is a light diet? The risk of some diseases is increasing.

I don't know when it started. Everyone misunderstood the concept of "light diet". They always think that drinking rice porridge with pickles is a light diet and a good way to keep fit.

Indeed, a long-term greasy diet will bring a lot of burden to the body and increase the risk of diseases such as hypertension, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia and stomach diseases. In order to alleviate this risk, some people began to blindly pursue "lightness", and rice porridge, as a tasteless food, was also pushed to the altar. Rice porridge is hard to swallow, so some people "think smart" and serve it with pickles.

Many people have a great misunderstanding about white porridge. No matter whether they are weak, have a bad stomach or have just finished surgery, most people will choose to drink rice porridge to recuperate their bodies. But the essence of rice porridge is rice, and the nutritional elements in rice are relatively simple. It's a bit whimsical to nourish your body with rice porridge.

Light diet ≠ rice porridge+pickles

Many people confuse the concept of light diet. In fact, we often say that the habit of light diet and heavy taste diet is different, because in most taste preferences, we are always full of expectations for foods high in oil, sugar and fat, but these foods often become health hazards.

You can think about it, whether cooking at home or eating out, many dishes contain a lot of oil, salt or sugar. These seasonings really make food more delicious and attractive, but they also bring more burden to your body.

Oil is a nutrient element needed by human body, but an adult can't consume more than 30 grams of oil every day, and most people won't notice this. Sometimes eating a plate of braised prawns and braised pork may lead to excessive oil intake in one day, not to mention eating some high-oil foods such as snacks, desserts and cakes after meals.

Salt is also an essential nutrient for human body, but in this respect, many people may not be able to control their intake, because many foods are partial to taste now, and this salty taste is also in line with the public's hobbies. However, if adults consume more than 6 grams of salt every day, the probability of cardiovascular disease will increase linearly. If you eat pickles every day, it may not be long before high blood pressure, myocardial infarction and stroke will come to you.

Sugar is also an indispensable nutrition for human body, but now many people don't pay attention to diet. Occasionally drink a bottle of coke, milk tea, eat a biscuit and cake, and the daily sugar intake may have been "outrageous". This will not only accelerate the formation of diabetes, but also increase the risk of other diseases.

To sum up, the more people understand the great harm of heavy-taste diet, the more they feel that light diet is necessary. But pickles rice porridge is not really a "light diet".

What is a light diet?

Contrary to the heavy taste diet, the light diet is low in oil, fat and sugar, and the intake of these condiments should be controlled.

These risks will increase if rice porridge is eaten with kimchi for a long time.

malnutrition

Whether it is porridge or pickles, the nutrition is relatively simple. If you take a single nutrient element for a long time, your body will not get nutritional supply, and you will gradually appear sallow and emaciated and malnourished.

decreased immunity

Rice porridge and pickles lack protein and vitamins. If eaten for a long time, the functions of various organs in the body will be weakened due to insufficient nutrition, and the immune system of the whole body will also decline.

Increase the risk of cardiovascular disease

Pickled vegetables contain a lot of salt. If eaten as a daily side dish for a long time, it will increase blood vessel pressure and be more prone to cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and cerebral infarction.

Increase the risk of diabetes

Although rice porridge will not bring pressure to the stomach, it will bring pressure to blood sugar. It is precisely because rice porridge is rich in carbohydrates, easy to digest, and the sugar index is also extremely high, which is not conducive to the stability of blood sugar.

Summary: a light diet actually needs a balanced nutrition, and all kinds of grains, vegetables, eggs and meat can't be less. Long-term single diet will make the physique worse and worse, and ultimately run counter to the desire for health care.
