The Food and Drug Administration's "Food and Drug Haowen.com" pointed out that the Taiwan Nutrition Foundation has conducted a survey in the past and found that as many as 52.9% of office workers in China are often in a high-pressure environment due to abnormal diets, which can easily lead to constipation, and even become distressed and irritable; Especially because they are often rushing to work, more than 40% of office workers simply skip breakfast, which is detrimental to their health.

This survey further found that up to 86% of people choose a low-fiber diet for breakfast, such as delicate bread or egg cake, as well as white rice, glutinous rice, carrot cake, etc., which are also processed food of refined rice , The proportion of dietary fiber is seriously insufficient, which may lead to unsmooth bowel movements.

Eat the right breakfast to keep your day full of energy! Liu Yili, a nutritionist at Tai'an Hospital, suggested that if you are an office worker who is used to eating bread, try not to choose stuffed bread, because the oil content is too high, it has been delicately processed, the calories are too high, and it lacks fiber, so it is not suitable for breakfast. In addition, the taste is not suitable for breakfast. Soft and tender fresh milk toast, I am afraid that the oil content will also be high, pay special attention.

Liu Yili emphasized that whole-wheat bread and oatmeal are complex carbohydrates that can stabilize blood sugar, while eggs and soy milk are good sources of protein. If you want to eat toast, you can halve the amount of spread, add a few slices of cucumber, tomato and lettuce that contain dietary fiber, and pair it with low-fat milk or unsweetened yogurt, it will be healthier.

Many people will buy breakfast from ordinary breakfast shops, such as ham and egg sandwiches, omelettes, milk tea, hamburgers, etc. Some people may say that hamburgers contain lettuce, meat, and bread, which means that the three categories of nutrients are all Take it into account, is it really so? This type of hamburger meat has the problem of too high oil content, and secondly, most of these hamburger meats are processed "combination meat", but the problem is not the phosphates used as adhesives, the starch or monosodium glutamate to increase the taste and other additives. , In fact, the hygienic conditions of food preservation need more attention!

The Food Safety Information Network of the Executive Yuan once pointed out that once this type of meat is processed for too long, it is easy to become a breeding ground for bacteria, and some breakfast restaurants will freeze the meat at room temperature in advance and place it on the frying table It is easy to access nearby, and microorganisms can take advantage of it at this time; if you add the hand of the clerk to checkout while making breakfast, and touch the lettuce, fried egg or toast after touching the steak, it is equivalent to cross-contamination of raw and cooked food, which increases food safety. doubt. It is recommended that the public observe the dining environment more to ensure their own health.
