Lvli to the old people said, according to the present study, the human life-sustaining activities need 100 kinds of nutrients, half of which about 50 species, the body can not synthesize their own, only to get through food, called “essential nutrients.” No kind of food does not “nutrition”, and no kind of food with all the essential nutrients. Therefore, maintaining the diversity of daily food to meet human needs for all nutrients, it is very important. In accordance with the nutritional point of view, the ideal diet requires not less than 4 kinds of vegetables per day, 2 kinds of fruit, and not heavy like the best week to prevent the partial eclipse caused by the lack of certain nutrients.
Lv Li pointed out that the elderly the most common nutritional problems in winter, mainly related to reduced activity, particularly related to outdoor activities. First, reduced digestion, poor appetite, resulting in reduction of total intake, the corresponding, meat, eggs and other high quality protein intake is also inadequate, the lack of essential amino acids directly affect the respiratory system’s resistance to infection; the second is the sun reduced opportunities, the less vitamin D synthesis, coupled with inadequate calcium intake survey the elderly, blood levels of free calcium daily needs can only be added into the blood from the bones, causing osteoporosis; Third, activities to reduce drink less water , coupled with inadequate intake of dietary fiber, resulting in constipation, and so on.
Therefore, the elderly, winter nutrition countermeasures should be getting enough calories and protein-based, high quality protein like meat, eggs of which not less than 60% of total protein. In particular, the need to eat about 3 a day two lean meat, one egg, 250 ml of milk or yogurt.

Lvli said, of course, eating habits formed in childhood, but not immutable, in theory, there is no absolute unpalatable food, do not eat often do not taste as good. There is a phenomenon of life, the mother to his kind of food, picky eaters, addicted to food and other eating habits to their daughters, her daughter grew up a re-transmission granddaughter, generations long run, resulting in lack of familial nutrients not only affect the health, or even to cause gene mutation . This is want people to be vigilant.
