In recent years, many people due to the intake of fat and protein too much, resulting in high blood fat and coronary heart disease, so some middle-aged and old people think that as long as they eat a vegetarian can avoid the increase of blood lipid, thus preventing the occurrence of coronary heart disease. It is true that proper vegetarianism has a certain effect on the prevention of coronary heart disease, but long-term vegetarianism is not worth the loss.
The blood viscosity of the appropriate vegetarian people is low, the blood in the blood vessels can be unobstructed, will not lead to myocardial ischemia, hypoxia, coronary heart disease caused by vascular obstruction. However, long-term vegetarian diet is not conducive to health, but also one of the factors leading to coronary heart disease. This is because, in addition to soy food rich in protein, other food protein content is less, and the nutritional value is also low, it is not easy to be digested, absorbed and used by the human body. Long term vegetarianism can lead to insufficient intake of protein and fat, and deficiency of fat soluble vitamins A, D, e, K and trace elements, resulting in nutritional imbalance and significantly reducing the body's resistance, thus making people vulnerable to infectious diseases, osteoporosis, fracture, etc. Most importantly, long-term vegetarians will lack vitamin B12 in their bodies, which will cause thickening of the arterial wall, leading to vascular sclerosis, which is the basis of coronary heart disease.
Therefore, a proper vegetarian diet can prevent coronary heart disease, but long-term vegetarianism may become a risk factor for coronary heart disease. Therefore, to prevent coronary heart disease should be reasonable diet, nutrition balance. The daily diet of the elderly should be light and nutritious, avoid long-term vegetarian, overeating, sweet food, salty food and other bad habits; eat less or avoid some foods with high cholesterol and saturated fatty acid content; Some of the food, such as edible leek, celery, milk powder, celery, celery, milk powder, etc.
