I have no appetite in hot weather. 3 cold dishes help appetizers?

In summer, the weather is stuffy and hot, not only will the skin dry quickly, but even the appetite will suffocate quickly. Obviously the food is in front of us, but both hands just can't hold the spoon and chopsticks. Nutritionists remind that the elderly are weak, and if their appetite is poor, it will easily lead to malnutrition and increase the chance of illness. It is suggested that some cool cold dishes can be cooked in summer to help stimulate appetite and increase appetite.

Old people have poor appetite, poor immunity and are prone to illness.

Tu Yuqing, a nutritionist in the nutrition room of Miaoli Daqian Hospital, said that the loss of appetite of the elderly will reduce the total intake of food and calories, resulting in uneven nutrition and malnutrition. In the long run, it will lead to the decline of the body's immunity and increase the chances of virus invasion and illness. Common diabetic patients are prone to symptoms such as unstable blood sugar, hypoglycemia and fainting due to poor appetite and eating less; In patients with renal insufficiency, due to insufficient nutrient intake, protein in human muscles cannot be metabolized normally, thus increasing the burden on the kidneys.

A refreshing appetizer followed.

Only when you can eat can you be energetic and healthy! Nutritionist Tu Yuqing suggested that in hot summer, people might as well prepare refreshing and delicious appetizers for the elderly at home. Except for people who suffer from diseases and need special attention in diet, appetizers for the elderly generally only need to grasp the principles of diversified ingredients, softness, digestibility, freshness, seasonal low temperature of 0-7℃, less spicy spices, less salt and sodium, and reduce the use of gas-producing products such as onions, green peppers, sweet potatoes and shallots according to personal physique.
