Are You Eating The Right Protein? Are You Eating Enough? 3 Kinds Of Beans Are Protein! Chen Yueqing's Formula "Eat To Prevent Epidemic Immunity"

Against the new crown pneumonia epidemic, are you eating right and enough protein? The latest domestic survey found that up to 80% of schoolchildren consume too much or too little meat, beans, fish, eggs and meat. Chen Yueqing provides a simple formula to follow, so that schoolchildren can eat the immunity of epidemic prevention.

The Cancer Care Foundation surveyed students in grades 3 to 6 in the North, Central and South, and collected nearly 21,000 valid questionnaires. The results found that there are more boys than girls, especially in the third grade. The proportion of boys is as high as 2 In 6th grade, 1 out of 4 girls had too little intake.

Yang Chuanying, a nutritionist from the Cancer Care Foundation, further analyzed that, regardless of region or grade, 90% of schoolchildren's protein sources come from animal proteins, such as red meat such as pigs, cattle, and sheep, or chicken and duck. , white meat such as goose, and eggs, and are mostly concentrated in dinner.

It is worth noting that the most common type of protein that schoolchildren eat is the exact opposite of the recommended order of "beans>fish>eggs>meat" by the National Health Service. Only 11% of schoolchildren will use plant-based protein soy products as a source However, nearly 40% of them eat less than 0.5 servings, and the higher the grade, the more they love red meat and less soy products.

About the knowledge of protein in school children, the survey found that nearly 90% of school children know that protein can help muscle growth, especially vegetarian school children's awareness is even less.

The survey also found that nearly 20% of school children will ingest processed meat, andConcentrate on breakfast. Yang Chuanying observed and found that the more processed products the schoolchildren eat, the less smooth their bowel movements will be and the higher the frequency of colds.

Chen Yueqing, chairman of the Cancer Care Foundation, pointed out that the survey of school children showed that the protein intake of school children was polarized, either excessive or insufficient, and the quality of protein sources was also poor. If school children eat big fish and meat, eat too much fat, resulting in excessive calorie intake, it is easy to gain weight.

Chen Yueqing said that immunity is closely related to protein, which is one of the three major sources of heat in the human body. In addition to providing energy and building muscles, it is also a major role in improving the immune system. If the quality of protein or If the amount is not good, the antibodies against bacteria and viruses will be weakened.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, adequate immunity is important. Chen Yueqing suggested that when planning each meal, parents can follow the formula "2 servings of protein in a meal, eggs and meat are delicious, fish and seafood are good, soy products are better, and processed meat is no no no", so that school children can eat immunity against disease.
