Delicate soy products hide high fat

Pan Fuzi pointed out that during the process of losing weight, Ms. Hong deliberately reduced the intake of meat and used soy products to supplement protein intake and reduce fat intake, but ignored the need for oily tofu, hundred-page tofu or fried bean curd in the production process. After deep-fried, or made by adding a lot of fat, it looks healthy and has a refreshing taste, but it actually eats more calories.

Long-term oil-free diet is prone to constipation

Pan Fuzi said that a low-fat diet does help to control calorie intake, but low-fat diet does not mean that you do not eat fat at all.

Oil also plays a very important role in the body's metabolic function. Many hormones in the human body need oil to help, and it can also provide protection for body cells and tissues. The key point is to choose good oil, such as: olive oil, Avocado oil, etc. A moderate amount of oil can also help the peristalsis of the intestines and reduce the occurrence of constipation.

Eating only vegetables and lacking protein makes it difficult to feel full

Ms. Hong eats a whole vegetable meal, which can absorb a lot of fiber and phytochemicals, which of course has many benefits for her health.

But Pan Fuzi reminded that the calorie intake of a whole vegetable diet is also low. In addition, you may not eat enough starch or protein at the same time to provide enough satiety. Naturally, the hunger will come back not long after eating. .

Vegetables and fruits are rich in fiber, which can help intestinal peristalsis, but not drinking enough water can easily cause constipation.

Generally speaking, it is recommended that adults drink 6-8 glasses of water (240 ml/glass) per day.

Plant ingredients are not all vegetables. Wrong choice will not help you lose weight

Pan Fuzi pointed out that in many consultation cases, the most common thing is that many people think that eating plant-based ingredients is equivalent to eating vegetables, but in fact not all plants are vegetables in terms of nutritional classification!

Common misconceptions include: yams, sweet potatoes, and lotus roots are classified as starches; avocados are actually fats and so on.

Try to choose cooking methods such as steaming, boiling, avoiding deep frying, and thickening. Eat less processed products and eat original foods as much as possible. , the amount is just right, don't eat more just because you like it.
