How can men prevent obesity?

We know that the pathological characteristics of obesity are "yang deficiency and dampness". Generally, people with obesity have weak body and weak defense, so products that warm and nourish yang should be selected; if people with strong body, most of them are damp and turbid inside, so drugs that dissipate dampness and promote water should be used;

When the constitution is hot, you should use things that clear heat and promote water; when the constitution is cold, you can choose drugs and foods that moisturize and transform fat. Obese people of different ages have different characteristics and should be carefully differentiated.

Most young and middle-aged men have to undertake heavy mental and physical labor. Therefore, the diet must first meet the demand for various nutrients. Especially when selecting proteins, high-quality animal protein should be the main focus, and various essential vitamins and trace elements should be fully supplied.

Young and middle-aged people need plenty of energy and should supplement foods rich in lecithin, such as eggs, beans, lean meat, liver, milk, etc., which can increase the efficiency of study and work. There should be a scientific way to eat fat.

Oils are composed of glycerol and fatty acids. Most of the glycerol is decomposed or volatilized during frying. Fatty acids can be divided into unsaturated fatty acids and saturated fatty acids, which have different effects on human health.

Saturated fatty acids can increase blood lipids in the blood and easily lead to atherosclerosis, so don't eat more oils containing more saturated fatty acids, such as lard, sheep butter and butter;

Unsaturated fatty acids, on the contrary, can lower blood lipids and soften blood vessels, and are good for human health. Oils containing more unsaturated fatty acids include vegetable oils such as soybean oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, sesame oil and peanut oil. Animal oils such as fish oil, chicken oil and duck oil also contain unsaturated fatty acids.

When people reach middle age, fat tissue gradually increases, and the incidence of subsequent diseases, such as diabetes, gallstones, hypertension, coronary heart disease, etc., increases significantly. Therefore, middle-aged people should control meat in their diet and reduce saturated fatty acid intake., strictly control the amount of sugar consumed, avoid salty food, and increase the intake of fresh vegetables, fruits, fish, refined meat and crude grains.
