Many people like to supplement nutrients in autumn. Health care is also an important focus. Generally speaking, there are four errors when people supplement nutrients in autumn. These errors will be explained as follows. 

The first error is that many people like to supplement certain nutrients blindly according to their own tastes. They like to eat a kind or some kinds of food, which is actually dangerous. The excessive intake of some foods can affect the balance of the nutrients inside the human body. What’s more, in different seasons, the demands of nutrients are different. People should adjust the dietary structure according to their physical situations and the seasons. According to the dietitians, the diversity of foods can supplement balanced nutrients for the human body. For example, grains provide heat and vitamin B for people; bean products provide vegetable protein; fruits and vegetables provide vitamin C, inorganic salt and dietary fibers. In autumn, people should pay attention to the diversity of the foods and the balance of the nutrients. They should often eat the foods containing fibers to prevent the internal dryness.

The second error is that people supplement nutrients mainly by eating meat. Many people think that meat has rather high nutritional value and can supplement various nutrients for the human body. In fact, the excessive intake of meat is difficult for people to digest and absorb. The fat and sugar contained in meat can even cause cardiovascular diseases among the old-aged people. People should often eat fresh vegetables and fruits in autumn to supplement vitamins and trace element and satisfy the demands of the human body.

The third error is to supplement too much. The excessive intake of both foods and drugs can endanger the human health. For example, the excessive intake of vitamin C can cause sickness and diarrhea, and the long-term supplementation of glucose can cause obesity, increase the cholesterol and induce cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, it is necessary for people to maintain the balanced diet.

The last error is to ignore the detoxification and defecation. The acidic and toxic products of the human metabolism should be removed from the human body in time. However, more and more people are usually attacked by constipation and irregular defecation in recent years. People should pay attention to the detoxification and defecation. They can eat the foods like honey and sesame to nourish the intestines and prevent the constipation. Thus, the dryness of the skin and the hair can also be avoided.
