Many people often feel tired, mentally impotence, and brain loss when they are old. It is likely that the protein intake in the diet is not enough. Hideshu, a psychiatrist who has studied medical care for the elderly for a long time, pointed out that protein is particularly important for middle-aged and elderly people and should be supplemented with extreme supplementation. Milk is a high-quality source of retrieval.

Hoda pointed out that intake protein is important for all ages, but it should be supplemented especially for middle and seniors. However, with age, the protein intake in middle and higher age tends to decrease. Studies in Europe and the United States have pointed out that half of the elderly over the age of 80 have protein deficiency.

The main reason for insufficient protein intake in older people is that their overall appetite is reduced, especially protein-rich meat, which may be due to the increase in age, the meat becomes difficult to digest, and eating too much will make you feel uncomfortable, or have poor teeth.

How much protein is needed to be collected in a day?

Hoda said that the daily protein production target amount should be at least 1 gram per kilogram. For example, people weighing 60 kg should take 60 grams of protein per day. But this is only the minimum. Even if many middle-aged and seniors take enough protein, they may not be able to fully convert them into their body's needs due to poor absorption or utilization efficiency. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you take more. For those with high altitudes, it is recommended to take 1.2 grams of protein per kilogram, and those with 60 kilograms should aim at 72 grams.

What health risks does insufficient protein intake cause for high-age patients?

The first thing that affects is the reduction of muscle mass. The reduction of muscle mass will cause slow walking speed, inability to pass the horse path before the red green light changes, and the grip strength will decrease, resulting in the inability to open the bottle, and the difficulty of going up and down the stairs, which will affect daily life. In addition, it will also cause the body to use the original muscles as energy source to further break down the muscles and fall into a vicious cycle.

If you feel difficult to eat a lot of meat, milk is also a convenient source of supplementation. Even people with weak stomachs or no appetite are more likely to drink and can easily replenish protein. Hotan suggested to develop a habit of "drinking milk every day" and even drinking it with water.

Enhanced function to reduce fatigue

Many people have the following experience: when you wait for the car, you always want to sit, find a seat immediately when you get on the car, take a break when you do some housework, and feel tired even if you go out. At first, you think that the year is here, but in fact it is likely to be low-nutrition. It is easy to feel tired, but it is actually due to insufficient raw materials for generating energy. The reason may be:

1. Nutrients lacking energy sources (little intake or partial diet)

2. Although nutrients are taken, the three major nutrients that cannot be effectively converted into energy

that produce energy are carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. The three major nutrients are indispensable. They should be balanced intake, which is the "diet diversity" advocated in modern times. Many people eat less carbohydrates such as food, bread or other carbohydrates due to blood sugar or weight, or care too much about citric sterol, which leads to excessive fat extraction.

Even if carbohydrates, proteins and lipids are taken, if they cannot effectively convert them into energy, the body will still be in a state of fatigue. At this time, the lack of vitamin B group will become the main cause of epistemosis. Therefore, the three major nutrients should be combined with the vitamin B group to take in, and milk is the ideal food that can provide these nutrients at the same time.

The culprit of not having sex and not having a brain is not enough to eat protein.

In middle and seniors, I often think that I can’t concentrate, have to arrange my schedule, and can’t take it for a while. This is because my physical strength and thinking ability have decreased with age. There are many reasons for the decline in thinking ability, including aging and pressure, but the factors of insufficient nutrition should not be ignored.

Maintain the neurotransmitting materials needed for thinking, and the raw material is protein. Insufficient protein will lead to a decrease in thinking ability and stamina. Insufficient protein can affect various functions throughout the body. You may feel indifferent when you are young, but with age, the harm of nutritional deficiency will become more obvious.

But for some people, eating 200-300g of meat or fish is actually too tired to digest, and milk becomes the best solution at this time. 1 liter of milk contains about 35 grams of protein, which can almost add half of the day; if divided into 330ml each morning, noon and evening for use or made into a dish, it is a relatively easy-to-achieve intake.

Even if you have no appetite, it is easy to eat. For middle-aged and seniors, especially those with high aged, milk can be said to be the most practical auxiliary food.

High pyrosterol but low mortality rate

Some people do not drink milk because they are worried that the increase in pyrosterol will increase the risk of myocardial infarction. A survey conducted by Professor Hiroshi Shibata, who was formerly the director of the Japan Council on Applied Geriatrics, found that low calcium sterol values ​​will increase the mortality rate.

Currently, the standard value of total sterol is set to 144~199mg/dl, 200~259mg/dl is the attention value, and above 260mg/dl is the abnormal value. Indeed, the risk of myocardial infarction among citric sterol exceeds 280mg/dl has increased significantly, but most of them suffer from familial hyperlipidemia. If this group of people is not excluded, it is a very dangerous conclusion to say that "there is no high cervical sterol".

Watada emphasizes that "don't lower calcium easily." On the contrary, milk and meat that are not popular because calcium is misremoved should actually be taken more vigorously.
