A healthy diet is not a set of regular, constant recipes. After all, everyone’s situation is still very different, but ——
Meal Pagoda is a reasonable eating pattern suitable for most Chinese people
Dietary Pagoda is just a set of plans based on the principles of nutrition and a choice of eating habits and dietary conditions for most Chinese people.
If you want to achieve a healthier state, you still need to adjust according to local conditions. Here are two examples:
Look at the amount of exercise: For example, some people who are conditioned to exercise more and do heavy physical activity may consume a higher proportion of carbohydrates.
Choose high-protein foods: Many people may have limited conditions and do not have the conditions to eat fish, a lot of soy products, etc. Even if the recommended amount of red meat in a normal balanced diet is very small, it will be less than two amounts throughout the day. But for those who do not have the conditions to supplement protein at this time, it is also reasonable for you to eat three or two high-protein meats a day.
So there is a general trade-off that needs to be made.
This is why many different dietary patterns are often recommended. For example, in addition to this one in the “Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents”, you can also refer to Deshu Diet, Mediterranean Diet and so on.
The most important places
Total calorie control: You can tell if you’re getting enough calories by your weight and waist circumference.
Control sugar: Added sugar is also very harmful, there is no need to eat it, and daily intake of sugar-sweetened beverages, milk tea, and confectionery should be strictly limited.
Plant-based: Natural plants are rich in dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, and plant compounds, and are often low in calories. People at high risk of chronic disease tend to be a good fit.
