  • The Health-Care Effects of Daily Food
  • There are so many kinds of food in our daily life, each with its specific nutrition and effects on human body. In the following section, we will introduce the health-care effects of three different foods in daily life.

    Firstly, egg--to protect the breasts
    Egg has an effect for the prevention of breast cancer. This is the latest medical research finding published by American Breast Cancer Research. The experts point out that, if women eat an egg every day, the risk of suffering from breast cancer would drop by 18%. Becides egg, foods which contain a large number of plant fats or cellulose also have the effect of preventing breast cancer. Swedish scientists have also found out that, rye porridge or rye paste also has the same effect. This is because rye contains a special substance, which can inhibit the growth of cancer cells. As a result, rye paste and rye bread should also be taken as good choices for breakfast. Apart from its effect in protecting the breasts, it is also very helpful for the prevention of constipation or weight-loss.

    Secondly, peanut butter--to slow down the aging process
    Because peanut butter contains a high content of vitamin E, so it has a powerful antioxidant effect. Often eating peanut butter can help women resist the aging of their body. In addition, peanut butter is also known as the best energy food. This is because peanut butter contains some unsaturated fatty acids, which can give people a sense of satiety, and provide the body with a lot of carbohydrates that can slowly release the energy, so as to make people full of energy for a long time. Moreover, the latest medical research shows that, if you eat peanut butter and other nuts (such as walnuts, hazelnuts) together, it can greatly reduce the risk of diabetes.

    Thirdly, oatmeal--to lower the level of cholesterol
    Oatmeal almost contain all the essential nutrients needed by human body, such as plant protein, vitamin B1, riboflavin, dietary fiber, minerals and iron, zinc and other trace elements. What's more, it is rich in calcium, which can strengthen your bones and teeth, and make you full of energy all day long. Especially if the level of cholesterol in your blood is too high, you should choose oatmeal for breakfast, because the American clinical research has found out that, as long as you eat a bowl of oatmeal every day, it can lower the level of cholesterol by 10% or more, and reduce the incidence of myocardial infarction by 20%.
