As the May Day holiday approached, Brother Liu, a 55-year-old freelancer, began to plan his holiday trip.
In order to make sure that his health could support the upcoming travel activities, he decided to go to the hospital for a comprehensive medical check-up.
Brother Liu has always had a seemingly healthy habit of drinking a large glass of homemade soy milk every morning, which he thinks is a good way to stay healthy.
At the end of the physical examination, the doctor's expression was very serious. He looked at Brother Liu's inspection report and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Liu, you may need to reconsider your morning habits.
While soy milk has its benefits, part of your heart problems may be related to the cup of soy milk you take every day. ”
These words shocked Brother Liu very much.
The doctor went on to explain that while soy milk was a nutritious option, in Brother Liu's case, three key wrong eating habits exacerbated his heart problems.
The first mistake: excessive intake.
The doctor pointed out that the amount of soy milk consumed by Brother Liu every day far exceeded the recommended amount, and the excessive intake of soy milk led to excessive calcium intake, which affected his cardiovascular health.
Too much calcium entering the bloodstream may lead to hardening of the arteries, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
The second mistake: add sugar soy milk.
In order to improve the taste of soy milk, Brother Liu is used to adding a lot of sugar to soy milk.
Doctors emphasize that this high-sugar diet is an important contributing factor to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Excessive sugar intake can not only cause weight gain, but also increase blood pressure and cholesterol levels, which are high-risk factors for heart disease.
The third mistake is to ignore other nutrients.
While soy milk is a good source of protein, it doesn't provide all the nutrients that Big Brother Liu needs.
Focusing on soy milk and neglecting a well-balanced diet left him lacking in essential vitamins and minerals, which are essential for maintaining the health of his heart and other vital organs.
Faced with this information, Brother Liu began to reflect on his eating habits and decided to make adjustments under the guidance of his doctor.
He began to reduce the amount of soy milk he consumed each day, avoid added sugars, and try to eat a more balanced and varied diet that included plenty of vegetables, fruits and whole grains.
This change not only benefited Brother Liu himself, but also inspired his family and friends to re-evaluate and adjust their eating habits.
By sharing his experience, he has helped more people realize the importance of healthy eating and the necessity of scientific eating.
This story not only tells the story of how Brother Liu faced the risk of heart disease and adjusted his eating habits, but also emphasized the importance of preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
Through Brother Liu's example and doctors' advice, readers can learn about the important principles and practical practices of healthy eating.
Finally, the story begs the question: how can the public access and apply the right nutrition and health information to prevent and manage chronic diseases in contemporary society?
The right answer requires the joint efforts of the government, medical institutions and all sectors of society to provide accurate and scientific health information to help people establish a healthy lifestyle.
Through integrated education, policy support, and community engagement, we can effectively raise public health awareness and behaviour change to reduce the incidence of heart disease and other chronic diseases.
