Fear of hypertensive patients eating beef works. So you can not eat red meat during the festival? Eating beef in a proper manner will keep hypertension under control.
Nutritionist Jahanara Akhter Sumi of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University gave details about this.
He said that the high content of saturated fat and sodium in beef is likely to increase blood pressure. So people who are overweight, have various heart problems, have fatty liver or have high blood cholesterol or other fat levels, should be aware of some things while eating meat.
Selection of meat: Be very careful in selecting meat. When cutting the meat, the visible fat should be carefully removed with the knife. In addition, the areas of the meat that have very low fat content, called lean meat, should be selected for consumption.
Cooking Method: Oil should be used as little as possible in cooking. It is much safer to barbecue, kebab, grill or grill steaks or to cook broth in a little oil instead of roasting.
Quantity: How much fat, protein and carbohydrates a person should consume depends on body weight and age. But an adult person can eat up to 80/100 grams of meat if there is no physical problem. But if you have physical problems such as heart disease, overweight or kidney problems, you should reduce the amount of meat you eat. Eat not more than once or twice a day and in the amount of two to three slices and broth should be avoided as much as possible.
Timing: It is best to eat in the morning, afternoon or evening. Eating such red meat late at night or before going to bed is not healthy.
Medicines: People who have heart problems, high blood cholesterol or other fats, who take cholesterol control medicines must take medicines on time.
Nutrient food: The amount of nutritive food should be increased in the daily food list. Red flour, red rice, vegetable salad should be kept. Rich foods help control blood pressure. Besides, the amount of water or fluid should be fixed.
