2024 Health starts with eating well
The end of the year is approaching, and the day of reunion with relatives and friends is one step further. It is inevitable to eat meat together, but many people are afraid of rising the scale, so they simply and rudely omit the staple food, but they don't know that there is no problem with doing three meals and five meals, if the whole holiday is like this, the consequences are unimaginable, what is the harm of not eating staple food, please continue to see below.
First, carbohydrates from staple foods make it easier to fuel the brain and other glucose-dependent tissues, so that the brain can work and be healthy. Although the brain accounts for only 2% of body weight, it consumes 20% of energy, and carbohydrates are the most direct and fastest substances that provide energy to the brain. If you don't eat staple foods, your brain won't get energy in time**, and you'll have difficulty concentrating, slow reactions, and reduced ability to work. So, it's true that some people say that if you don't eat staple foods, you'll become stupid.
Secondly, if the staple food is not enough and the energy is insufficient, the protein in the body will produce energy for the body through the gluconeogenesis pathway, and will also produce toxic substances such as creatinine and urea, and will consume the protein of muscle tissue.
Third, if there are not enough staple foods, the ketones produced by fat burning cannot be metabolized, which will lead to ketoacidosis and related disease risks. In addition, ketone bodies compete with uric acid for excretion channels, which leads to an increase in uric acid.
Therefore, a reasonable eating pattern is that meals have staple foods, meals are not excessive, and meals are thick and thin.
For example, a woman who works lightly is recommended to have 35 grams of oats in the morning, 75 grams of rice and millet at noon (about 180 grams of rice), and 200 grams of potatoes and 200 grams of corn on the cob for dinner.
