Everyone thinks that eating more and moving less will make you obese. However, there is 1 fact that may make ordinary people unbelievable, and fat people can also be malnourished. In 2016, GITT conducted a study in 129 countries and found that 1 in 3 people was malnourished. Moreover, hundreds of millions of people are malnourished because of obesity. Why? Where did the food go? What are the characteristics of malnutrition caused by obesity? What health damage will it cause? What should I do? Let's solve your doubts now.
Experts from the Global Nutrition Reporting Organization pointed out that malnutrition, that is, poor nutrition, is not enough nutrients, and the consequences may make people too thin, or children grow slowly, but may also bring overweight, these malnourished fat people, the body sugar, salt, cholesterol content is too high, metabolic abnormalities will occur, resulting in increased risk of diabetes and other diseases.
Malnutrition occurs among obese people, overweight, but insufficient protein, vitamin B12 deficiency, and iron deficiency anemia may also occur. The size of the body is obese, indicating a high level of fat in the body, however, trace elements and minerals may be very deficient. The World Health Organization has called a lack of vitamins and minerals a hidden hunger, and about 2 billion people around the world are facing hidden hunger. Relevant studies have shown that the dietary structure of our compatriots is poor, and trace elements such as calcium, iron, vitamin A, and vitamin D are difficult to achieve the intake recommended by dietary guidelines.
Obesity is accompanied by malnutrition, in fact, what we ordinary people usually call fat, in essence, it belongs to nutritional imbalance. Eating too much high-calorie, high-fat food can lead to obesity, such people, vegetables and fruits often lack of intake, at the same time, less physical activity, resulting in malnutrition. Because of the chronic lack of essential nutrient intake, hidden hunger will form, and the risk of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer and other diseases will increase. Nutritional imbalances, which affect the composition of the gut microbiota, causing chronic inflammation, are a key biological mechanism by which hidden hunger leads to an increased risk of disease.
Fat people encounter malnutrition, the main measure is to strengthen the adjustment of dietary structure, need to divide the food into 3 categories, red light food, yellow light food, green light food, should reject red light food, carefully choose yellow light food, eat more green light food. The so-called red light food is mainly foods rich in animal fats, foods with high cholesterol content, foods made of excessive oils and fats, such as fatty meat, fried or fried foods, instant noodles, cream cakes, French fries, animal offal, crab yellow, and fish roe paste.
Yellow light food, is the need for limited intake of food, for example, peanuts or cashew nuts and other nuts, rich in oil, the daily intake should not exceed 20 grams, at the same time, should be careful not to choose fried varieties. For vegetable oils, it is also necessary to limit them moderately, and the cooking oil per day should not exceed 30 grams. For the handling of food, try to choose cooking methods such as steaming, boiling, and stewing, and use less cooking methods such as frying, frying, and stir-frying.
Green light food is a variety that can be safely ingested, mainly foods rich in water-soluble dietary fiber, such as oats, whole grains, and fruits rich in pectin, which can help cholesterol excretion and reduce blood lipids. Kelp or algae rich in iodine, green leafy vegetables rich in magnesium, onions and garlic rich in sulfur, and shiitake mushrooms and fungus with more traces are all good choices. While paying attention to nutritional balance, attention should also be paid to reducing the intake of sodium salts and sugars, replenishing water through boiled water, and drinking less or no sugary drinks. In addition, physical activity should be strengthened, with no less than 150 minutes of exercise per week. Overall, from a health perspective, choosing what to eat, how to mix it with, and striving to achieve nutritional balance is the key to avoiding hidden hunger. Don't want to be a fat person who is malnourished, first of all, choose the variety of food, and then control the amount of food, remember that what to eat, how to eat, than how much to eat, what to do after eating, more important.
