Snacks are mostly fried, which destroys the nutrients of most foods. Crispy, sweet, sour and salty snacks make people fondle them. For example, plum, toffee and chocolate are all children's favorite foods. Often dinner is not eaten, and these foods do not leave the mouth. As a result, the children get thinner and thinner. Eating snacks from time to time will inevitably lead to insufficient gastrointestinal rest, reduced secretion of digestive juice, and cause gastrointestinal dysfunction. At the same time, if you eat too many sweets, sugar will easily ferment and produce gas in the intestine, which will make your stomach feel full and your appetite will be greatly affected. In this way, the child is in a hungry state that seems to be full but not full, and the required nutrition is insufficient, which hinders the normal growth.
In addition, gelatin, flavor enhancers, antioxidants and various chemicals containing pigments are added to many snacks. In order to make the food in the food bag look full, the manufacturer will fill the food bag with nitrogen. Eating too much of this food can easily lead to various diseases and even various cancers.
But eating snacks is not necessarily bad. Old people: Because of digestive dysfunction, every full meal is difficult to digest and absorb. On the contrary, it will become a burden and have symptoms such as indigestion. If you eat 70% to 80% full every meal and feel hungry between meals, you can eat a digestible and nutritious snack. School-age children: children at this stage are in a period of long knowledge and long body; However, due to the tight school time, the simple breakfast is poor in nutrition, or the monotonous taste affects children's appetite, which directly affects the learning effect. In this case, if you eat a snack around 10 in the morning, not only will the students' learning effect be enhanced, but their physical fitness will also be improved. Pregnant women: Due to special circumstances, the nutritional requirements of pregnant women are higher than those of ordinary peers. However, because the fetus oppresses the digestive system in the third trimester of pregnancy, it feels full after eating, which affects the food intake. The nutritional demand in this period is quite large, and insufficient nutrition will directly harm the fetus and pregnant women. At this time, you can use the method of eating snacks, that is, you often use the method of "a small amount of meals" to solve it. Diabetic patients: dividing the food intake of three meals a day into six or seven meals can solve the problem that the blood sugar taboo of diabetic patients continues to rise rapidly.
We should arrange the amount and time of snacks reasonably to make our health better.
