Three mistaken ideas of the elderly's nutrition

Three mistaken ideas of the elderly's nutrition
The investigation reveals, in the prominent factor influencing the elderly's life quality, the top three is health status, nutritional status and life satisfaction, but the influence of the economic income is arranged at the end. This investigation is in the medium-sized area on the upper side of the economic condition, evaluated and carried on through meal investigation, nutrition relevant physical examination, synthesis of three respects of relevant laboratory inspection of nutrition, the respondent's age is 60-80 years old. The result shows, it is problematic that there is nutrition of 60% of the old persons.



Mistaken idea one

Ignorant of nutrition knowledge. Most the elderly do not think that it is the main source of the nutrition to eat three meals a day, and does not generally pay attention to drinking the milk, the intersection of staple food and one day that have even

150 grams
Also eat. When the medical worker suggested increasing nutrition, the elderly said the younger member of a family already bought tonics such as American ginseng, bird's nest, shark's fin,etc. for oneself if many, only thinking of the health product, few people select and adjust from the basic food. The elderly of knowledge with lower level also have phenomenon of buying the health product blindly, what right away buys something to prevail in the street, buys some well or what somebody, some advertisement say.


Mistaken idea two

Used to eating the leftovers, overnight dish. Find in the investigation, many the elderly have got used to saving for many years, the overnight leftovers are often unwilling to throw away, other habits burn a dish to eat for three or four days. And determine, the cooked food cooked, stand for 2 hours the last various vitamin will lose 10%-30% according to science, losses will reach 30%-70% after standing for 4 hours, if melt down and heat, will incur loss again. There are dishes especially green leaves vegetables of the previous night, not only the nutritive value is not high, but also will produce pathogenic inferior nitrate. The elderly's appetite was not originally big, if took the overnight dish not high of nutritive value again, is not nutrition more uneven?


Mistaken idea three

Cook, pass oil, over-salty too sweet. Find whom 50% the elderly of the above eat per person per day cook vegetable oil up to according to investigation
50 grams
,The standard volume should not exceed per person per day
25 grams
. Many people do not think the elderly with the vascular disease of heart brain eat the fat, but it is not important to cook vegetables and put more oil, in fact this is wrong. Fat oily food to want, take little, cook to pass oil, too can cause the intersection of hyperlipemia and disease. Overweight overweight person's proportion is up to 41.1% in the elderly of this group, but a better explanation.

The medical expert proposes: The elderly should reach the nutrition clinic of the hospital to have a look.
