Three general studies: Three major dietary deficiencies in acute coronary heart disease! Fruits, vegetables and dairy products are obviously insufficient

Some chronic diseases are caused by diet! Especially for patients suffering from acute coronary heart disease, an unbalanced diet will affect the condition of the disease itself. Based on the analysis of dietary scores of patients with acute coronary heart disease by the Tri-Service General Hospital using the Dietary Diversity Scale. It was found that these patients had three major deficiencies in their diet, namely, a significant lack of intake of vegetables, fruits and dairy products.

Three major dietary deficiencies in patients with acute coronary heart disease

Nutritionists from the Nutrition Department of the Tri-Service General Hospital used the Dietary Diversity Score (DDS) to analyze the dietary scores of patients with acute coronary heart disease. It was found that these patients had common problems in their diet; about 20% of the patients did not consume enough vegetables every day, 60% of the patients did not consume enough fruits every day, and more than 80% of the patients did not consume enough milk.

In view of the fact that patients with acute coronary heart disease have long neglected the importance of vegetables, fruits and milk to their health, nutritionists from the Nutrition Department of the Tri-Service General Hospital have specially designed Chinese and Western one-day demonstration menus to implement the important influence of milk and fruits and vegetables in a balanced diet on acute coronary heart disease. We urge the public to review their balanced diet codes every day, eat the right whole foods, and create all-round health.

A balanced diet generally refers to obtaining enough nutrients and energy from the diet every day. You should refer to the daily dietary guidelines according to your age, gender and activity intensity to find the appropriate calorie requirements and recommended servings, so as to ensure good health and stay away from disease risks through dietary diversity.

Fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in potassium ions, magnesium ions and dietary fiber

Why does a lack of vegetables, fruits and dairy products affect the disease itself in patients with acute coronary heart disease? Because fresh fruits and vegetables are rich in potassium ions, magnesium ions and dietary fiber. Potassium ions promote the excretion of sodium in the body and have the effect of lowering blood pressure; magnesium ions mainly act on the circulatory system around blood vessels in the body, causing vasodilation, preventing sudden contraction of arteries, and enhancing the protective effect on the heart; dietary fiber is not absorbed and decomposed by the intestines, which helps control blood sugar. It can also be fermented by bacteria, increase stool volume, keep bowel movements smooth, and reduce the occurrence of constipation.

In addition, the calcium ions in milk maintain the balance of calcium ions inside and outside the smooth muscle cells, which can control muscle contraction and relaxation, prevent vascular resistance from increasing, and thus prevent vascular sclerosis and lower blood pressure.

In order to allow people to have flexibility in their diet, the Nutrition Department of the Tri-Service General Hospital has specially designed three Chinese and Western meals a day to strengthen execution, so that people can eat whole foods and create a comprehensive food decoding.
