Stroke while eating toast? More unhealthy than white rice.

1 baker, nearly 50 years old, suffered three minor strokes in recent years, but after examination, he found that his blood pressure and blood lipid were all fine. Finally, the doctor asked about the patient's eating habits and found that the baker lived on toast for a long time because he didn't want to waste it. However, nutritionists point out that toast should not be the main cause of minor stroke, but he has been eating toast for a long time and is easy to eat too many additives, such as oil.

Wu, CEO of Taiwan Province Nutrition Foundation, said that there are many reasons for minor stroke. From the observation of patients' overall diet and living habits, eating toast for three meals does not necessarily lead to minor stroke. But if toast and white rice are exquisite foods, butter, sugar and salt may be added to the toast during the production process. Excessive consumption may cause obesity and cardiovascular burden, even more unhealthy than white rice.

Wu stressed that no food is "absolutely inedible", and "quantity" and "frequency" are the key points. For example, the baker in the case takes toast as the staple food for a long time, and it is easy to consume too much oil, sugar, salt and refined starch. If you put cream on your meal, the cholesterol in it will increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Modern people should eat more refined foods, whole grains and roots, so as to supplement fiber and vitamins for the body. In the choice of toast, whole wheat toast is better than white toast, and it should be simple when eating, without adding too many ingredients.
