Do you know what happens to people who have been vegetarians for a long time?

My mother is 77 years old and barely eats meat, and has done so for decades.

When my mother was young, she also ate meat, that is, she ate very little, and only ate lean meat. Fatty meat was not eaten, not at all, but meatballs that were half fat and half lean. Or the dumplings stuffed with pork are delicious to her.

There are seven brothers and sisters in my mother’s family. Except for my mother who doesn’t like to eat meat, all the other brothers and sisters eat meat, especially my second aunt, who is a great meat-eater, especially fat meat. My aunt has a "famous saying": Fatty meat is so delicious, just like stewed white radish, one bite will fill your mouth with juice...

When I was young, I was quite good at eating fatty meat, but compared to Compared with my aunt, she is simply not in the same league. She feels inferior to her. [I want to be quiet]

My dad is 79 years old this year. He is a meat-loving person. He eats meat for every meal. If for some reason he doesn’t eat meat for two consecutive meals, it is definitely not a meal. A big deal.

The above is the background.

My mother started not to like eating meat when she was in her 30s. Gradually she ate less and less meat. In recent years, she almost stopped eating meat. However, my mother is very healthy. Blood pressure, blood lipids, and blood sugar are all very good. The most important thing is that my mother’s eyes do not have presbyopia. She has no problems at all when reading, looking at mobile phones, or threading needles.

I am 52 years old, and my health is not as good as that of my mother. My blood pressure is still high and low...[face covering]

Besides, my father, in addition to having senile hypertension, I don't have any other illnesses, especially my appetite. My dad eats one meal and I eat for the whole day.

My 80-year-old second aunt is also in good health, except for a little high blood pressure. However, in recent years, my cousins ??have not allowed her to eat fat like this.

My dad and mom also have a very special hobby. They like to eat sweets. They are very sweet. How sweet are they? Let me give you an analogy. My mother likes to drink soy milk, and she puts a lot of sugar in it every time. The soy milk is a light gray color in the white bowl. There is so much sugar that often even in very hot soy milk, the white sugar cannot be dissolved. Yes, I don’t dare to drink even with so much sugar. I really can’t drink it, it’s so sweet. Sometimes when nothing happens, the couple would just drink a large cup of boiled water with sugar. The water is light yellow, and there is often a layer of insoluble white sugar at the bottom of the cup... [face covering]

I also add a little extra , my father and mother have not had the habit of eating breakfast for decades. Occasionally, they will make something to eat when they are hungry. If they are not hungry, forget it.

Having said all this, I just want to express my personal point of view. Everyone’s physique is different. I think it is a bit inappropriate to have to give a standard so-called healthy diet standard.

My father and mother’s eating habits are very unhealthy. My father’s diet is high in oil, sugar and high carbohydrates, and my mother’s diet is low in protein, high sugar and high carbohydrates, but this does not hinder their health.

One of my cousins-in-law is a doctor, a very ordinary doctor. He once told me a point of view that our human body is a very magical chemical factory. In theory, the food you particularly want to eat is basically Whatever your body needs or lacks, or doesn't like to eat, means your body doesn't need it, so you can eat whatever you want without deliberately eating or not eating.

But there is a prerequisite, it must be in good health. For example, if you have diabetes, you must control your sugar.

The so-called eating when you want refers to natural foods, not artificial foods, such as milk tea. I really like it. It doesn’t matter if I drink it occasionally. Long-term and large intake is definitely not good for the body.

Therefore, we cannot say who is better or worse between a long-term vegetarian and a meat-free person. You still have to look at your own physical needs and don’t force or be deliberate.

Are there not many concepts created by various health-preserving masters over the years? Are these health masters also short-lived? ! [Laughing]

In a word, trust your body and eat whatever you want. Life is short and only lasts a few decades. Your parents have the final say on what you eat before the age of 16, etc. The doctor has the final say on what to eat when you are old, and you don’t have much time to control what to eat. Isn’t life just about eating and drinking? What’s the point of living so long if you have to limit even the food you like to eat? [Crying]

As long as I can remember, I have had a bowel movement every ten and a half days. When I was young and ignorant, I thought that all the nutrients I ate were absorbed, so there was no waste discharge and I felt good about myself. But every time I go to the toilet, it's painful and I don't know what's going on. Only when I grew up did I realize that it was actually "constipation", which was harmful to the body. On days when I don’t have a bowel movement, I don’t feel any urge to defecate. If I can’t defecate, I’ll use Kailu. Although I knew constipation was bad for my health, I thought since I was still young, it wouldn't affect anything, so it didn't matter. But after giving birth, all the accumulated problems surfaced one by one...

I am from Zhoushan, Zhejiang, born in 1972. I have suffered from constipation since I was a child, rhinitis, hypotension, familial myocardial ischemia, and so on. After the child was born, he had symptoms of urinary leakage (urinary incontinence). According to traditional Chinese medicine, it was a loss of both Qi and blood, but now he is better.

I think everyone who strives for health has their own twists and turns story, and I am the same.

01

From constipation to rhinitis,

Loss of Qi and blood due to excessive medication

My daughter was weaned at ten months Later, my mother and I started to catch colds every three days, and taking cold medicine became a daily routine. The longest time I have ever had a cold in my memory was about two months.

It was winter, and every time I went to see a doctor, the doctor always blamed me for wearing too few clothes because of the cold, so he prescribed me some anti-inflammatory drugs. I never felt cold while carrying my child, and there was nothing I could do about it. Later, when I caught a cold again, I simply didn’t go to the doctor and went to the pharmacy to buy medicine myself.

It took a long time to find out that I had rhinitis. My nose is blocked, I feel like I can breathe with my mouth open when I sleep, I can't take deep breaths with my mouth closed, and my sense of smell and taste are usually not very sensitive.

My constipation is not cured yet, and I have rhinitis. People say that this problem is recurring and difficult to cure, so I have been taking anti-inflammatory drugs and cold medicines for more than 20 years.

Later, due to excessive medication, I lost both energy and blood. I couldn’t wake up all day long. I had no energy at work. I didn’t want to do anything after coming home from get off work. I felt so weak that I had no energy to cook.

Moreover, I often feel flustered and short of breath (people in my family have poor heart functions). I usually get out of breath when I move, and sometimes I get chest cramps when I work in a hurry. Once during a check-up at the hospital, the doctor asked me to carry out a backpack test. I still remember that my heart rate was only over 50 at that time.

02

I came into contact with direct sales of health care products,

My health improved by eating nutrient products

Around 2010, my neighbor’s sister Seeing that I was always groggy, he recommended me to take nutritional products. Based on trust, I started to get involved in direct sales of health care products, and gained a new understanding of health - the body needs nutrients, not medicines.

From that day on, I threw away all the medicines at home and replaced them with nutrient health products.

At that time, I was in an island village, close to the sea and eating from the sea. People around me made a living by fishing, and there were seafood everywhere. It felt like a really good source of nutrition.

I also studied nutrition and took the exam to become a nutritionist. Eating meat and vegetables every day, plus eating nutritional supplements every day, slowly, my physical condition seems to be really getting better, nasal congestion has improved (but one nose is still not smooth), constipation has also been relieved, once every 1 to 3 days .

However, there is a strange phenomenon: when I don’t take health supplements and eat too much meat, I still get constipation. Moreover, eating oranges usually causes internal heat, and eating grapefruit also causes internal heat (it will be more difficult to go to the toilet after eating them, and small bubbles will form on the tip of the tongue).

The combination of meat and vegetables in every meal is obviously done well, but I really can’t figure it out.

Where is the road?

03

I have tried many methods and they all work,

but I can’t get rid of the root.

I really can’t figure it out

p>

In 2013, I came into contact with Buddhism after suffering a serious car accident (having had brain surgery and four screws in my left temporal bone). I stopped eating meat (mainly fish, shrimp and shellfish) and started to follow a vegetarian diet. Find seven major nutrients here.

In order to ensure nutrition, in addition to the indispensable amount of eggs and milk, the amount of oil is also increased, and recognized good oils-olive oil and flaxseed oil are used.

During the period of practicing Buddhism, I attended Dharma meetings and learned repentance. At that time, my rhinitis was significantly improved. But about half a year later, my nose became blocked again.

After that, I went to learn Gua Sha in traditional Chinese medicine, and then I realized that rhinitis is rooted in the lungs, and bad lungs originate from the intestines.

Because of constipation, my intestinal tract must be in bad condition. Although the intervention of nutritional supplements has cured my constipation a little bit, if I don’t eat it for a day, it will happen again in two days.

After all, taking health supplements is a waste of money. This vicious cycle makes me more and more confused and I don’t know what to do.

Later, every time I had constipation, I used scraping to solve it. I felt that it was much better than taking health supplements, at least it didn’t cost any money. Thinking about the nutrients my body needs, I also pay attention to my diet. I usually eat a lot, and there are vegetables of various colors every day.

But even after using so many health care methods, the roots still couldn’t be removed in the end. Although we know the cause of the disease, we are unable to cure it, which is very helpless.

As a last resort, I chose to rely on health supplements to relieve the pain. I wonder if I didn’t eat enough? But why did I, who was 1.58 meters tall, go from more than 80 kilograms to 108 kilograms? Does weight gain indicate adequate or insufficient nutrient intake? What is the problem?

04

My health has improved again after being exposed to the juice cleansing method.

But my father who died of cancer still makes me confused

At the end of 2019, I came across the method of drinking juice to detoxify and cleanse the body, and started drinking a glass of fruit and vegetable smoothie every morning.

Before I knew it, I felt a lot better. First, the constipation was relieved, and after a while, my nose was basically no longer blocked. Then I bought some related juice drinking books to study.

But the other two meals I had were the same as before, eating eggs, milk and a lot of fried vegetables. My nose will still feel uncomfortable every once in a while, and I have bowel movements basically every day, but going to the toilet is more strenuous and I have to squat for a long time. I still need to supplement health care products from time to time.

At that time, my father was suffering from advanced lung cancer. I thought that fruit and vegetable smoothies were very good and allowed the body to absorb more nutrients, so I asked my father to drink them too. At the same time, increase the intake of eggs, milk, fats and nutritional supplements to ensure adequate nutrition.

Unfortunately, my father passed away in the end. I don't understand why eating so many nutrients still can't save him? Maybe it's fate.

05

Keep looking for a healthy path that does not require spending a lot of money,

Until I encountered the "21-Day Health Challenge"

Me I have been looking for a way to achieve true health without spending a lot of money. No matter whether it is right or wrong, good or bad, I will practice it myself, share what is useful, and find again what is useless.

I don’t remember when I bought the two books "Healing Without Medicine" and "Life-Saving Diet" because I was also a vegetarian (I didn’t correctly realize that eggs and milk are not vegetarian, and oil is not healthy). After reading it, I didn’t pay much attention to it.

On the eve of June 18 last year, I seemed to be in a group and accidentally saw a 21-day health challenge tweet sent to the platform by others. I saw a QR code below and scanned the code to join the group. .

In this way, I encountered low-fat veganism and participated in the 21-day health challenge for the first time. Because participating in the challenge required me to check in for reading, it was only then that I discovered that the group I had entered was actually the "Healing Without Medicine" group.

During the challenge, sometimes I couldn’t clock in on time because I was busy with work, so I would make up for what I missed earlier when I had time. Only through persistence and serious study can we truly understand the harm of animal food to the human body.

I can accept that red meat is bad, but for people who grew up by the sea, they have never thought that white meat can also cause harm to the body. After all, our ancestors have lived this way for generations. The knowledge in the book really subverted my cognition.

The core elements of a healthy diet are - eating plants instead of animals, eating whole foods without refined processing, cooking without oil, and no more than a handful of nuts. Eat a balanced intake of vegetables, fruits, beans, and grains every day, supplement vitamin B12, and produce vitamin D through sun exposure.

I thought this diet would be easier for me because I am not a picky eater. Although I used to cook with oil, I mistakenly thought that the intestinal tract would not move without oil, so I increased the amount of oil used. Now I know that the body needs fat but not oil, so I don't mind eating oil.

So I concentrated on learning and practicing with the squad leader and group friends every day in the group, and officially started a low-fat vegan life.

Chen Haier’s daily low-fat vegan food

06

The low-fat whole-vegetarian diet has been a success,

Finally realized that there is no elimination The root cause of the disease

Unexpectedly, just a few days after starting a low-fat vegan diet, I felt unprecedentedly relaxed, and my walking steps became lighter! My legs always felt heavy in the past, and my mother-in-law always said that I walked like a Peking duck (I couldn't walk fast).

In the morning, I sometimes drink fruit and vegetable smoothies, and sometimes eat multigrain porridge. About two weeks later, I once saw someone in the group asking if having bowel movements several times a day after going on a low-fat vegan diet was causing diarrhea. I just realized that I can easily poop twice a day!

So far, constipation has never happened again! You can defecate every morning without waiting, and there is no need to go out and change places to have a bowel movement.

Oral ulcers are less likely to occur. Occasionally biting the meat in the mouth, it would not heal in ten days and a half in the past, but now as long as I eat a lot of raw food, it will be fine the next day.

Although I was also diagnosed with breast hyperplasia and kidney crystals (I rarely go to the hospital for physical examinations, and I remember the doctor told me that I had this problem during the examination many years ago), after all, these have been for many years. It’s an old problem, but I’m very satisfied that my body can recover to its current level.

More than half a year has passed, and combined with the real feelings of my body, I have a profound understanding: It turns out that I have always "moved the floor with the faucet on", no wonder "the floor can never be mopped clean"!

Now that I have turned off the faucet of hurting myself, that is, I have stopped hurting myself, so the accumulated burden on my body is disappearing.

Since I started practicing low-fat veganism, I have never taken any nutritional supplements. I threw them away and it feels so good.

It turns out that our health can be found in the whole food given to us by nature, and we do not need to spend a lot of money to buy artificially processed food.

I hope that my experience in seeking health can bring inspiration and help to everyone. I will try my best to lead the people around me, so that more people can have health without wasting money.

- END -

I am a vegetarian for a long time. It's about 20 years ago. It cannot be said that it is completely vegetarian. If you eat eggs, you just don’t like them. As for meat, occasionally eat a little chicken, shrimp and fish. On average, I eat chicken once every two months and fish once during the Chinese New Year. You don’t eat fat or lean pork, but you can eat pork liver. On average, I can eat pork liver twice a year. Don't drink milk. You can drink yogurt, but not often. Age 36, thin body, 88 pounds, height 156. Short. I like sports and have very good physical strength. I don’t eat breakfast, I don’t like to eat fruits, I don’t drink water, I like to eat vegetables. I have night blindness and cannot see clearly in the evening. I have always had frequent urination, including constipation and hemorrhoids for 7 years, which later healed without treatment. It has lasted about 5 years, and I go to the toilet normally without constipation. Sometimes I feel dizzy when I sit or stand up. I rarely catch colds or get sick. Before 2019, I only had 1.2 colds. But I have had three colds in the past two years. It's hard to get better, and it takes about ten days to take medicine every time. I got acute appendicitis last year. Surgical treatment, recovery is good, but easy to get tired.

I know a person who has been a vegetarian for a long time. He is very healthy, has a gentle personality, is very polite to others, never gets into arguments with others, has a rosy face, has never been sick, and has extremely high quality sleep. , and is a person full of positive energy. Worthy of being a true vegetarian expert!

People who have been vegetarians for a long time are in good health and rarely suffer from three highs. As long as they eat a reasonable combination of foods, they will not be lacking in nutrients. Soybeans and peanuts have higher protein than meat, and plant ingredients contain antioxidant effects. , has anti-cancer effects and can delay aging. Contains crude fiber potential, which can expand the intestines, exercise digestion, and reduce constipation. Most of today's three-high syndrome is caused by excessive intake of meat and fat and reduced physical exercise.

Long-term vegetarian! Later they all became immortals!

My mother told me a story; once upon a time, there was a long-term worker who worked in the landlord's house. The landlady was very harsh on him. Give him food to eat! Not only is there no oil or water at all. Even salt is reluctant to put a grain in it.

This long-term worker worked in the landlord's house for three years. For three years, I ate vegetables. Never smelled even the slightest bit of meat. The landlord's mother-in-law cooked boiled vegetables for him without adding any salt or oil. No taste at all.

One day, the landlord’s wife brought the wrong meal to the long-term worker and gave it to her landlord husband.

As soon as the landlord ate it, he vomited it out. Scolding his wife for the food she cooked in the afternoon. Not even as good as pig food!

The long-term worker said that the food was his! It was the landlord's mother-in-law who made a mistake! Meals like this! He ate for three years.

The landowner couldn’t believe that his wife had been feeding the long-term workers such food for three years?

This landowner has some conscience. He felt that his wife had treated him badly. I just want to make it up to him.

He told the long-term worker, I will give you a sum of money. You go home and sell some fields. Plant it yourself, or plant it for others, and collect the rent yourself. You don’t have to work so hard as a long-term worker.

The long-term worker said, I only want the stone mortar from your home to give to me. Just give me another umbrella.

The landlord gave him an umbrella. That stone mortar is very heavy. He used the handle of the umbrella to lift it up to his shoulders.

The long-term worker carried the stone mortar with an umbrella and just walked to the door. Suddenly, it flew up.

When the landlord saw him, he asked the long-term worker to wait for him. The long-term worker asked him to hold on to the umbrella. The landlord grabbed his umbrella and took off too. When the landowner saw him, she also wanted to ascend to heaven. Just hug the landlord’s legs.

The long-term worker was angry when he saw it! Kicked the landlady off with one kick. The landowner rolled to the ground and turned into a sow.

In the past, my mother often said that she would not eat meat-flavored or unsalted dishes for three years. You can become an immortal and become a worshiper.

This long-term worker has not been able to smell meat for three years. I didn’t even eat dishes with salt added. He ascended to heaven and became a god.

When I was a child, I heard my mother say it, and I thought it was true. When I grew up, I realized it was a fairy tale! I don’t know, have you heard this story?

Food preferences are a person’s habits. Some people are born to love eating meat and belong to a group of people who are not happy without meat, just like me and my family; There will be something missing. This is the case for many seaside people. This is related to the living environment; some people do not eat meat and only eat vegetarian food. In addition to their beliefs, it is also related to their habits.

There are many people who do not eat meat or fish in life, and my mother is one of them. When I was young, my mother loved to eat meat and seafood. However, after she retired, her skin became itchy in spring and autumn. She went to many hospitals but could not find out the reason. However, many doctors recommended not to eat "fat foods". In my mother's eyes, all meaty and fishy ingredients are "fat foods", so she gave up eating them all. She even stopped eating vegetables with special smells such as leeks, garlic, coriander, and peppers. It has been six or seven years, and now my mother’s skin only itch occasionally when the seasons change. It can be said that the symptoms have eased a lot. My mother is now 82 years old. Here are some of the changes I feel she has made since becoming a vegetarian:

1. She has become extremely thin: My mother used to be 160cm tall and weighed about 150 pounds. A very rich old lady, she now only weighs about 110 pounds. It can be said that she has lost a lot of weight.

2. Breath and gastrointestinal tract have improved a lot: In the past, my mother often suffered from constipation, bad breath, and a strong smell of old people, but these problems have been relieved a lot since becoming vegetarian.

3. All indicators of my mother’s physical examination are also normal: My mother used to have high blood lipids and had high blood pressure. Now she takes antihypertensive drugs every day, but since she became a vegetarian, her blood lipids don’t seem to be that high. , whether this is related to vegetarianism is unknown.

4. Physical strength is not as good as before: But after all, as a person in her early eighties, physical decline is inevitable. Anyway, my mother is not as energetic as she is already.

My mother is a vegetarian but she doesn’t dare to eat meaty food. However, a hard-boiled egg and half a pound of milk every morning are unbeatable. She also drinks some yogurt before going to bed at night, because she thinks it is better to sleep this way. good.

There are many people around me who have been vegetarians for a long time. My neighbor Uncle Li’s family never eat food with eyes on it. This habit has been like this since I met his family.

However, Uncle Li’s son, who has been a vegetarian all year round, has diabetes. Now he is walking with a limp in his early 50s, and he is extremely thin. He is over 180cm tall and weighs only about 120 kilograms. He looks a bit like a "horse pole", and he can't do heavy manual labor.

What Uncle Li’s family likes to eat most is cocoons. His family buys this kind of food in pots. When I was a child, I often saw his family eating this kind of high-protein food, and they also eat eggs. He eats a lot. The five members of his family eat at least five kilograms of eggs a week. I wonder if eggs are considered meat or vegetarian in the eyes of vegetarians?

1. The protein and fat in meat and fishy ingredients are in many vegetarian dishes It can also be compensated

Nowadays, people’s food has become more and more refined. The protein and fat of meat and fishy food are mainly higher than that of vegetarian food. However, people use edible oil, soy products, etc. in their daily diet. These nutrients can also be obtained from food. This mainly depends on personal eating habits.

Second, people who have been vegetarians for a long time are generally unable to do heavy physical work

Vegetarian people are generally thinner, and there is a physical gap between those who eat meat and those who eat meat. Doing heavy physical work requires If students who are living and growing do not eat meat and are picky eaters, there will definitely be a physical gap between them and those who eat meat.

Third, people who have been vegetarians for a long time may not be healthier and live longer than those who eat meat.

My father is a meat-loving person. He is now in his eighties and eats at least half a week a week. He carries 30 kilograms of pork head meat, and every meal must be meaty. Now he can carry 30 kilograms of stuff up to the fourth floor without breathing, and his body is envied by many people.

People still need to exercise more and develop good living habits. For example, my father gets up on time at five o'clock every morning, makes breakfast and then goes to the park to sing. After decades of retirement, I have been doing this all day long, and I have never been picky about food. I just eat whatever I can, but I just love eating meat.

People who have been vegetarians for a long time are definitely not as good at physical fitness as those who love meat. However, eating habits are developed by individuals over a long period of time. But I think people should eat everything. After all, every kind of food The nutrients contained in each food are different, and only by absorbing nutrients from different foods can the body's needs be met.

1. Lack of protein 2. Reduced intake of fat and protein 3. Lack of various vitamins

There are many “vegetarian” people around us, and vegetarians are very common. It is easy for them to become "vegetarians for a long time" because their concepts and beliefs have changed their tastes. People around them also tend to know that they are vegetarians, so they simply stick to it.

There is nothing wrong with being a vegetarian for a long time. Your choice must be a decision made after careful consideration. However, long-term vegetarianism limits the intake of certain nutrients, which is the key to subsequent health problems. Let’s take a look. --Do you know what happens to people who have been vegetarians for a long time? --

One of my cousins ??is kind, virtuous, hard-working and willing to work. She has to take care of the lives of a family of 8 people every day. She has 4 children plus her father-in-law and her eldest brother. In the 1970s, the living standards of every family were not high. Living in the suburbs had a little "private land" where they could grow some seasonal vegetables, which solved many problems. During the Chinese New Year, my cousin bought some meat from the village pig farmers to improve and adjust the food. Life, but she doesn't eat any vegetables with meat in it. She is very thin. Her family members advise her to eat more meat and eggs, but she always refuses on the grounds that she doesn't like to eat and feels like vomiting after eating. We During the winter and summer vacations, I would bring some meat, fish and snacks from the city to my cousin's house. My cousin would not eat any of them and would not listen to anyone's advice. She would always mix fish, meat and eggs for us all to eat, even during the New Year. When making dumplings (with meat fillings), she would make a few vegetarian dumplings for herself at most. We knew that she didn't eat meat, but later we didn't persuade her and allowed her to become vegetarian.

Later, my cousin’s body became weaker and weaker as she grew older. She went to the hospital to be diagnosed with severe malnutrition, osteoporosis, anemia and other problems. After treatment from the hospital and “forced” persuasion from her family, she She is no longer a vegetarian, and her family has adjusted and paid attention to her diet. After treatment and improvement in her diet, her physical condition has improved significantly, and she can now help her children and grandchildren. She died at the age of 75.

After a long-term vegetarian diet, the nutrients needed by the human body cannot be effectively supplemented. Over time, the body cannot get a balanced source of energy, and illness and health problems are inevitable. My cousin's life experience is one of these. Examples should be used for reference by all of us. --The significance of a balanced food intake for the human body--

People must have a balanced food intake! Fish, meat, eggs, milk, vegetables and fruits are all indispensable!

Food enters the human body in four main destinations. The first destination is to provide energy to cells (carbohydrates - grains and fruits); the second destination is to become cell structures, relying on proteins and lipids. The main source is meat, eggs, milk, and fish; the third destination is to regulate cell metabolism and obtain proteins, vitamins, cholesterol, and minerals; the fourth destination is to nourish the bacterial flora in the intestines and come from dietary fiber in food.

If people develop the habit of "long-term vegetarianism", the intake of lipids, cholesterol, protein, etc. will be cut off from the source or the intake will be insufficient. The substances required for the human body to ensure its basic "operation" will be obviously reduced. Insufficiencies and deficiencies increase the chance of physical ill health and make diseases possible.

After being a vegetarian for a long time, people’s mental state and complexion are obviously not good, and their physical strength is also obviously insufficient. Therefore, for your own health, you should eat more "whole category" foods and let your body make "smart" choices to ensure We are healthy and live longer.

Nowadays, human life expectancy has been greatly improved. The organs, tissues, etc. that were originally "designed" for dogs to last for 60 years must now be "stretched out." Necessary and even more nutritional supplements are very important. Necessary, we often say, don’t put a burden on your children, and strive for health and longevity as much as possible, so dietary structure and the intake of all types of food are particularly important. --Do you know what happens to people who have been vegetarians for a long time? --

If people can eat, of course it is to ensure health and to be able to absorb and digest. Eating more and drinking more is beneficial to health and longevity.

My parents were both revolutionary soldiers who participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. They experienced bloody storms and difficult times. They are now 90 years old. From their food life, we have also seen the ability to The health benefits of eating.

Dad must eat 2 eggs for breakfast every day. He likes all kinds of fish, meat and eggs, such as braised elbow, smoked chicken, braised pork, fried croaker (hairtail), boiled fish, etc. He still insists on drinking them every day 1-2 liang of white wine. What makes us afraid to try is that in addition to three meals a day, he and my mother also eat a lot of snacks, such as beef jerky, fish fillets, sunflower seeds, peanuts, halva, and various pastries ( (My favorite), etc. This eating habit has lasted for more than 20 years. It turned out that the high blood lipids and high blood pressure did not stop their love of eating, so the family allowed them to eat. All we can say is, eat It is a need in the human body. Whatever is lacking, just make up for it.

Of course, everyone has different situations and cannot be generalized. My parents may be able to eat so much because they need it, or they may have strong digestion and absorption capabilities. I do not advocate that older people eat too much. A healthy, light and balanced nutritional intake is the way to go.

A comprehensive intake of fish, meat, eggs, and milk is better than a long-term vegetarian diet. The human body requires energy to function, and this energy comes from fat, protein, minerals, vitamins, carbohydrates, etc. in food.
