The afternoon sun was shining through the curtains on the table, and I was leisurely flipping through a list of the top 10 high-purine foods when I suddenly heard a heated argument coming from the kitchen next door.
"Son, you eat so many fish and shrimp every day, be careful of high purines!" a mild-mannered middle-aged mother scolded her son.
"Mom, it's okay, it's all the time when you pursue high protein and low fat, I'm exercising!" the son defended vigorously.
I was intrigued, so I walked next door and asked curiously, "What's the matter, what's delicious, I want to taste it too." ”
My mother looked at me and sighed, "This kid has to eat so many purine-rich foods every day, I'm worried that he will suffer from gout." ”
The son smiled disapprovingly, "Mom, you're worrying too much, how can you not eat these delicious foods?"
I was curious and asked, "What are high purines, and what foods are rich in high purines?"
Mom took out her phone and showed me a list of the top 10 high-purine foods. "Look, these are foods rich in high purines, such as fish and shrimp, meat, soy products, etc., and eating too much can easily cause gout. ”
My heart moved, it turned out that high purines are related to gout, which is a controversial topic. The son didn't care, and said while flipping through the recipe: "It's all a trivial matter, and it's not eaten every day, so what's the matter." ”
Mom frowned, "Isn't it, but the problem is that you eat these things almost every day, and some people are more sensitive to high purines, so you don't have gout." ”
The son smiled and shook his head, "Mom, I'm young and strong, and I exercise well, how can I get sick." ”
I watched the debate and felt the warmth of the family. The mother is worried about her son's health, but the son is unwilling to give up because of his pursuit of good food. This kind of family conflict can find resonance in many families.
However, I found that this mother did not blindly prohibit it, but tried to guide her son's diet Xi habits through persuasion and explanation. This reminds me of many times when the strength of the family is so important, and the care and guidance of parents can affect the growth of children in subtle ways.
A few days later, I came to the family again and found that my son's table had more low-purine foods, and it turned out that my son, under the guidance of his mother, began to try some healthier diets.
"Mom, I'm listening to you and I'm starting to pay attention to my diet. The son said to his mother with a smile.
Mom smiled, "Look, I'll just say you'll understand." The most important thing is to be good for your health. ”
The family engaged in a small argument over a list of the top 10 high-purine foods, but eventually moved in a more harmonious direction because of understanding and concern. This reminds me of many times when we encounter seemingly small problems in our lives, but through rational communication and care, we can often find solutions.
In the warmth of the family, everyone is trying to grow, learning to face and solve problems, just like treating high-purine foods, and choosing a healthier lifestyle. Perhaps, in this process, we will all gain something, and this harvest is also a kind of love for ourselves and our families.
