On an early summer morning, the sky was as blue as if it had been washed by water, and the sunlight cast dappled shadows on the ground through the leaves.
As an internist, Dr. Lee has been working in hospitals for more than a decade and is familiar with a wide range of conditions.
However, when he saw today's outpatient list, he was faintly worried.
The first patient today is a man in his forties, surnamed Wang, who is a novelist by profession.
Mr. Wong has always been a person who likes to try new things, and recently he has become obsessed with durian, a tropical fruit.
Dr Lee knows that although durian is delicious, its high-sugar and high-fat properties are prohibitive to many people.
Mr. Wang walked into the consultation room with a haggard face, his face a little yellow, and his steps looked a little heavy.
Dr. Lee sat him down and began asking about his medical history and recent diet.
"Dr. Li, I've been feeling tired lately, my appetite isn't very good, and my chest is always feeling stuffy."
Mr. Wang sat on a chair and clutched his stomach as he spoke.
"Have you had any recent changes in your diet?" Dr. Lee asked with concern.
"I've recently become obsessed with durian and eat one or two every day. However, I heard that durian can't be eaten too much, so I'm a little worried about whether this is the reason. Mr. Wang replied with some uneasiness.
Dr. Lee nodded and decided to give him a thorough examination first.
From blood routine to liver function to electrocardiogram, Dr. Li did not dare to be negligent.
The results of the examination came back quickly, and Dr. Li found that Mr. Wang's blood sugar was significantly high, and his liver function was also abnormal, especially the triglyceride and LDL levels were frighteningly high.
"Mr. Wang, your situation is indeed not optimistic.
Based on your test results, I found that your blood sugar and blood lipids are out of the normal range, especially triglycerides and LDL, which is likely related to your recent consumption of durian. ”
Dr. Li explained while mentally thinking about the next step in his treatment.
The expression on Mr. Wang's face became serious, and he knew the seriousness of the problem. "So what should I do, Dr. Li?"
You have to control your durian intake. Durian is high in sugar and fat, and excessive consumption can lead to an increase in blood sugar and blood lipids, which in turn increases the risk of cardiovascular disease
In your case, I recommend eating at most one clove a day, and it's best to wait a few days before eating. Dr. Lee said earnestly.
In the following days, Mr. Wang strictly followed Dr. Li's advice to control his diet and actively cooperated with the treatment.
After a period of recuperation, Mr. Wang's physical condition has improved, and his blood sugar and blood lipids have gradually returned to the normal range.
Through this experience, Mr. Wang deeply realized the importance of diet to health.
Not only did he learn to control his durian intake, but he also began to pay attention to the intake of other high-sugar and high-fat foods, and gradually developed healthy eating habits.
Dr. Lee is also relieved to know that as a doctor, his duty is not only to treat patients but also to educate patients to adopt a healthy lifestyle.
Although durian is delicious, it is not suitable for everyone to eat in large quantities.
Especially for those who have diabetes, hyperlipidemia, obesity and other problems, they should be more cautious.
In fact, durian is indeed very nutritious, rich in vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber, which has certain benefits for the body.
However, its high-sugar and high-fat properties also make it a "contraindication" for some patients with chronic diseases.
Therefore, eating it in moderation is the key to health.
For ordinary people, eating a clove of durian every day is a relatively safe intake, so that they can enjoy the delicious taste without causing too much burden on their health.
At the same time, when combined with other low-sugar and low-fat fruits and foods, you can better balance nutrition and avoid health problems caused by excessive intake of single foods.
Mr. Wang's story tells us that a healthy lifestyle is inseparable from scientific eating habits. Even a delicious durian should not be greedily eaten.
While pursuing appetite, we should pay more attention to the health of the body, only in this way can we truly enjoy the beauty of life.
Through his professional knowledge and experience, Dr. Li has helped Mr. Wang re-understand the problem of durian intake, and also made more patients aware of the importance of diet to health.
As a doctor, he is not only a curator of diseases, but also a guide to a healthy life.
In daily life, scientific diet, moderate exercise, and regular physical examination are the keys to maintaining health.
May everyone have a healthy body and enjoy a happy life.
