When people reach middle age or old age, they face a lot of pressure both from the outside world and from their family. In addition, the deterioration of their physical organs leads to a decline in physical and mental energy. At this time, diet plays an important role, especially breakfast. What should elderly people eat for breakfast?
Experts say that in order to slow down the aging process and delay the onset of "old age" for middle-aged people, besides maintaining a positive mindset and engaging in necessary physical exercise, it is also very important to have a reasonable dietary combination. The diet of middle-aged people should contain rich protein, vitamins, calcium, phosphorus, etc., and should also ensure low calorie and low fat intake, and properly control the intake of carbohydrates.
The metabolism of the elderly has significantly declined, but the essential nutrients should not be reduced, especially the supply of calcium to prevent osteoporosis in the elderly. In addition to providing milk and soy milk, the breakfast for the elderly can also include foods such as porridge, noodles, shredded meat, and peanut butter, which are easy to digest and rich in nutrients. An ideal breakfast for middle-aged people would include: one egg, a bowl of soy milk or porridge, a small amount of dry items (such as steamed buns, pancakes, biscuits, and bread), and a moderate amount of vegetables.
