"6 no's" for a healthy dinner
Many people skip dinner or even skip it for fear of gaining weight. This can have a serious impact on your health. Here are some basic principles for a healthy dinner.
No fasting
Don’t think that skipping dinner can give you the waistline you want. After a day of activity, your body needs energy to restore and regenerate its cells. So dinner is a mandatory “duty” for you.
Skipping dinner can cause low blood sugar and fatigue. You will have to compensate for the lack of calories with a “huge” breakfast with meat and other protein-rich foods. The habit of “fullness accumulates hunger” is also the reason why you have problems with your digestive system and weight.
Do not eat red meat
You should not eat red meat at dinner. This type of meat takes a long time for the body to digest the protein and fat in it. If you eat red meat late, you may have trouble sleeping or even insomnia.
Don't eat too much at dinner.
If you eat too much food at dinner, it will definitely increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, causing insomnia and sleeplessness. If this condition persists, it will easily lead to diseases such as neurasthenia. For middle-aged people, if they always eat too much at dinner, it will continuously stimulate insulin secretion, leading to diabetes.
At the same time, if you eat too much at dinner, there will be a certain amount of protein that is not digested and absorbed. Under the influence of bacteria in the intestines, these proteins will create toxic substances. At the same time, it slows down the process of falling asleep, prolonging the residence time of toxic substances in the intestines. This can lead to colon cancer.
Don't eat dinner too late, otherwise it can easily cause urinary tract stones.
Don't eat too much meat for dinner.
Medical research found that for people who always eat meat for dinner, blood fat levels are 3-4 times higher than those who always eat vegetables.
For people with hyperlipidemia and hypertension, eating too much meat at dinner will make their condition much more serious. In addition, eating too much meat at dinner will increase the cholesterol content in the body. While too much cholesterol will accumulate on the blood vessel walls, this condition, if prolonged, can cause atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases.
Don't eat too much sweet food for dinner.
After dinner, desserts all contain a certain amount of sugar, whether large or small. When eating a lot of sweets, the sugar content after entering the body will be divided into two types: fructose and glucose, absorbed by the body and converted into energy and fat.
In addition, after dinner, body activity decreases, eating a lot of sweets at dinner can increase fat accumulation in the body, thereby easily causing weight gain.
Don't eat dinner too late.
You should not eat dinner too late, otherwise it can easily cause urinary tract stones. The body's urination usually takes place 4-5 hours after a meal. However, at this time, people are always deep in sleep, so they often do not want to get up to urinate. Therefore, if dinner is too late, nocturnal urination is not done promptly, leading to the accumulation of toxic waste such as calcium oxalate, uric acid... in the kidneys and urethra, which can cause kidney stones and urinary tract stones over time.
