HẠ MÂY (Theo aboluowang) |

Protein is very important for the health of people over the age of 55. Therefore, the elderly need a reasonable diet and exercise to prolong their life.

Eggs

For those who are not meat eaters or vegetarians, eggs are an ideal choice for protein supplementation. A boiled egg contains about 6 grams of protein, and also provides many vitamins and minerals such as vitamin A, B vitamins...

Nuts

Almonds, peanuts, walnuts, cashews or pelvis are all rich in protein, fiber and unsaturated fats that are good for the heart. In addition, they also contain many bioactive ingredients that are beneficial to health.

Soy products

Beans and soy products (such as tofu, soy milk) are a rich source of plant protein, rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals, suitable for both vegetarians and those who need a balanced diet.

Although protein is essential for the body, eating too much is potentially dangerous. According to Professor Louise Fontana (University of Sydney), consuming too much protein can increase the risk of diabetes and heart disease. If you eat more than 64 grams of protein/day, every 10 grams of excess protein can increase the risk of type 2 diabetes by 20-40%.

Therefore, we should supplement the amount of protein that is suitable for the body's health and needs, instead of abusing it, to ensure long-term health and nutritional efficiency.
