Dad, the calories of steak meal soar, and afternoon tea is not afraid of obesity.

Honor your father, a hearty meal may increase your physical burden! Nutritionists say that many children are used to celebrating Father's Day in the form of family dinners, but the calories of a big meal are often thousands of calories, which is more than half of the calories that fathers need every day. It's better to make afternoon tea at home instead of having a big meal in the restaurant. Nutritionists have designed a walnut cake with fruit wine, which costs only 322 calories for a single person. It can not only enjoy the warm afternoon tea time, but also save the trouble of waiting in line and crowded people in the restaurant.

Eating a big meal to celebrate Father's Day may lead to obesity due to excessive calorie intake. Nutritionists suggest replacing light food with afternoon tea after normal meals to reduce calorie intake. (Photo/Luo Huiwen) A Father's Day dinner has more than half of the calories in a day.

He Yiqian, a nutritionist in Zhongxing Campus of Taipei United Hospital, said that men in their fifties and sixties should consume about 1 1,800 calories a day, but they often eat table dishes or restaurant buffets at Father's Day dinner. Eat a little. Everyone should eat at least 1000 calories per meal. Take the western-style set meal as an example. An 8-ounce sirloin steak with more oil and more flowers has about 700 calories. If you add soup, salad with sauce, dessert and drinks, the total calories will exceed 1000 calories, which is more than half of the calories you need in a day.

Excessive calorie intake can easily lead to obesity and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hypertension, degenerative arthritis, metabolic syndrome, dyslipidemia and other diseases. Therefore, nutritionist He Yiqian suggested that filial children who care about their father's health should replace high-calorie meals with hand-made low-calorie afternoon tea, which can not only keep the dinner warm, but also take care of their father's health.
