All things happen in the universe, and there is a wonderful numerical ratio in development—0.618. Ancient Greek esthetician Plato hailed 0.618 as the "Golden Rule" or "Golden Rule" or "Golden Ratio."
Facts have proved that 0.618 is fully reflected in architecture, calligraphy, painting, music and other fields. Medicine and 0.618 are also inextricably linked. Modern scientific research shows that 0.618 also plays an important role in the diet.
The digestive tract of humans is five or six times the length, and is about nine meters long, of which 0.618 is 5.5 meters. It is the length of the small intestine that is responsible for digestion and absorption. Human omnivorous food should be mainly plant foods, vegetarian food should account for 0.618 of the total, which is compatible with the digestive system, health benefits. In some developed country food structures, this "golden split" has been reversed. Animal foods account for the majority of cardiovascular diseases and the incidence of diabetes obesity has risen dramatically.
Heat energy in food is provided by carbohydrates, protein, and fat, and carbohydrates are the main food supply. The 0.618 required for human heat must be supplied by 0.618 of carbohydrates, mainly starch in cereals. Westerners seem to have realized this. In various dietary guidelines, it is recommended to eat more starchy foods.
Protein is an important nutrient. The demand of human body for protein is of course "quantity", but more important is "quality". The quality depends on the composition of the monomeric amino acids. Proteins are composed of 20 amino acids, and 20 of 0.618 or 12 amino acids can be synthesized by the human body. The other 8 amino acids require food to supply. The content of these eight kinds of amino acids and the ratio of proteins that meet the needs of the human body are called high-quality proteins. The quality of protein in cereals is poor. In order to ensure protein intake, the quality protein in the diet should reach a ratio of 0.618. Therefore, in addition to a certain amount of animal food in the daily diet, we should also arrange more beans and soy products, which is good for the body, especially for young people in growth and development.
Unlike vegetable oils and animal fats, the composition of amino acids is not the same as that of animal fats. Each of them has its own physiological functions. Partial eclipses are not good for the body. The best match is that the intake of vegetable oil and animal fat is in line with the “golden splitâ€, ie, 0.618 and 0.382, so that the content of unsaturated fatty acids in the intake fat accounts for 0.618 of the total.
The nutrients that make up the most human body are water, which accounts for 0.618 of body weight. Without feeling sweating, the human body loses and replenishes 2,500 milliliters of water each day. The water supplied by the food and human body synthesizes 1,500 milliliters, which is exactly 0.618. The remaining 1,000 milliliters require beverage replenishment to maintain balance. . Adults should drink 5 to 6 glasses of water a day, preferably drinking boiled water at 22 degrees Celsius. Because the person's normal body temperature of 37 degrees Celsius and 0.618 product is 22.8 degrees Celsius, this is most suitable for the body's metabolism and physiological functions.
Rice, noodles, meat, eggs, oil, sugar, and wine all belong to acidic foods in the metabolism of inorganic salts. Eating too much acidifies the blood, resulting in acidic constitution, reduced immune function, and weak and diseased. According to statistics, about 0.618 of the disease occurred in people with acidic constitutions. Therefore, you should eat more alkaline foods to neutralize the regulation, so that the blood maintains normal micro-alkaline. Alkaline foods include vegetables, fruits, edible fungi, milk, and seaweed-based algae. The amount of alkaline foods consumed each day accounts for 0.618 of the total amount of food.
After analysis by medical experts, it was found that people who are full of food and drink are also full of happiness, and those who only eat sixty-seven percent of them have almost no stomach problems. In addition, the intake of diet is suitable for six points of coarse grains and four points of refined grain, which also reflects the diet of 0.618.
We may wish to try to figure out more about our diet and health. Perhaps there will be more recent discoveries in the 0.618 golden rule.
