There is not a single rigid standard of nutrition for all mankind, nor an ideal diet
There is no single rigid nutritional standard for all mankind, nor is there an ideal diet. Someone is more mobile, someone is less, someone has restrictions on products associated with chronic diseases, age, sports, personal preferences. Therefore, you should adhere to the most general rules, adjusting the dietary regimen under yourself individually. For people losing or gaining weight, the proportions are different. Should you limit yourself in meat, salt, sugar, spices, carbonated sweet drinks, coffee, fast food, alcohol, etc.? If you are a healthy person, then limit - yes, but categorically refuse - not necessarily. Sometimes psychological restrictions are no less harmful than food restrictions. Lack of regular physical activity negatively affects health - it's a proven fact. You don't have to start going to two-hour classes at the gym from tomorrow morning - start small: 10-15 minutes with an instructional video on the mat in front of the TV; refuse transportation for distances up to an hour on foot; refuse the elevator and actively climb the escalator; swimming pool on weekends; playing volleyball with friends in the yard. Anything to get moving. For people over 18, a half hour of movement a day is a living wage. Prevent disease and consider that Before age 40, you should see a doctor once a year. For women over 25 years of age, breast ultrasound and mammography should also be mandatory every two years. For people over 40 years of age, to these tests and examinations are added: sugar analysis for the timely detection of diabetes; cardiogram. In women, due to age-related hormonal changes, the risk of osteoporosis increases, so densitometry - examination for bone density - becomes relevant. Finally, fight bad habits and take good care of your sleep and you will be healthy for many years to come.
