New urban nutrition questions of the elderly
Our country has carried on a nationwide large-scale nutrition survey. The respondent includes 17000 middle-aged and elderly people, investigate that reflects the nutrition problem that existed in the elderly at that time, the absorption that it is mainly some nutrient is insufficient. But in some cities, the elderly have already presented the hypernutrition question. With the improvement of the living standard, people pay attention to one's own nutrition and health day by day too. Under such a historical background, what nutrition questions are there in the elderly? We carry on the meal situation investigation to the elderly over the the intersection of urban area and 2000 many persons of 60 once. Nutritional status and existing nutrition problem of the elderly urban investigation result to reflecting, should have certain representativeness. 1,The elderly's meat in the urban area, egg and poultry are eaten more. Take old man of 60- 69 years old as examples, eat meat and the total amount of eggs of about 150 grams on average every day, equilibrium meal mode learning to be recommended more than China nutrition has had another more 35 grams; And fish every day such as aquatic products intaking amount only 30 on average, than recommend meal mode to have 20 fewer. The situation of old women is similar too. Ones that ate in the meat with the pork are the most, everybody knows the fat content of the pork is the highest, it is up to 37 grams that per hectogram of fat thin pork is fatty, and are fatty and only about 3 grams in per hectogram of fish. Because the pork is higher in saturated fat content, taking in the fatty and saturated fat increases the danger of hyperlipemia and vascular disease of the brain of heart of happening. So, the elderly had better eat some more fish, eat less the pork. 2,The elderly in the urban area eat less fresh vegetables every day. Average 250~300, and dark dish that the elderly take in actually account for the intersection of vegetables and total amount, fewer than 1/ 3 only. And the intersection of China and nutrition learn, give a recommendation every day in the ideal meal, should include 400 grams of vegetables at least. Study the suggestion of the foundation according to cancer in the world, eating a large number of vegetables, fruit can prevent many kinds of common cancers. The anti-oxidant composition related to giving protection against cancer thought in the vegetables, fruit is as follows, carrotene, lycopene, folic acid, xanthophyll,etc., and these the content is very high in vegetables yellow, green. In dark green leaf dishes such as rape, pakchoi, broccoli, fennel, Qi fields lying fallow in rotation,etc., content of nutrient such as vitamin k, carrotene, vitamin B2, xanthophyll and calcium, often than several times higher even more than ten times of content in light-colored vegetables such as the eggplant, wax gourd,etc., and these are the nutrient aptest to be scarce of the elderly. 3,Already there was increase than several years ago to drink the number of people of the fresh milk in the urban area. Drink milk quantity and convert to the elderly of 200 ml of fresh milk and is up to 1/ 3 on average every day, and the drinking more milk quantity on average of old man at advanced age. The milk is the most abundant source of calcium in the food, every 250 grams milk can supply 250- 300 milligrams of calcium, with the attention to calcium nutrition, more persons choose milk type as the important source of calcium. However, as a whole, the person who often drinks the milk is not enough, this may relate to the fact that some the elderly do not tolerate lactose. Lactose in the yoghurt has already been crossed and fermented, and the taste is better, very suitable for the elderly to drink, but Beijing urban area old man little in number to drink yoghurt, this might be relatively high and relevant with prices of the yoghurt. 4,There is little old man's intaking amount to beans and soyfood in the urban area. Can convert to to eat 32 grams of dried bean curd, this and the soyfood amount proposed in " balanced meal pagoda " (convert to averagely into 80 grams of dried bean curd) per person per day And very great disparity. The beans not merely can offer high-quality protein, soybean and different yellow ketone,etc. biological active substance that it includes, the involutional syndrome and bone quantity by woman are lost to still help to lighten definitely. 5,The investigation result still shows, the elderly's fat intaking amount in the urban area is a bit high. Energy that fat supply reach the intersection of meal and total 35% of energy, this may the elderly overweight and proportion of overweight person relatively high and relevant in weight with the intersection of Beijing and urban area. There is little energy high and physical exertion that they take in, make surplus energy store in the body in the form of fat. 6,It is about 500 milligrams that the intaking amount of average daily calcium of this target of the investigation reaches. Calcium is a kind of nutrient that actual intaking amount and suitable intaking amount recommended are with the biggest gap, compared with investigation result of the 1990s, meal calcium increase greatly already, because the intersection of the elderly and suitable intaking amount of calcium for every day? 000 milligrams, it is 200 milligrams higher than the general adult. If obtain calcium only from the diet, it is every day very difficult to reach that takes in 1000 milligrams of levels. So, while advising the elderly to have conditions, can supplement calcium pharmaceuticals beyond the diet appropriately, this will be more helpful to the health of guaranteeing the elderly's skeleton.
