Dietary food

Dietary nutrition - this concept carries in itself not only the definition of diet numbers and the list of permitted products for a particular disease, rather it is the formulation of a whole layer of preventive measures and means aimed at preserving the health and quality of life of people. Actually, the translation of the word "diet" from Greek means just a way of life, that is, a set of rules, principles and habits that contribute to the normal functioning of all body systems.

Unfortunately, the phrase "diet food" many of us begin to understand only with age, when chronic diseases have already been acquired, the pathological "bouquet" is located in the body. The reasons are all familiar - the lack of time resources to stop and think about what is being absorbed in unreasonable amounts, environmental common problems and, as a result, the lack of normal, natural origin of products, and much more. The result of illiterate diet are gastrointestinal problems, at least, excess weight and all the associated pathologies, from cardiovascular to diabetes - as a maximum.

Dietary food and diet

It would be more correct to consider the dietary diet in two vector directions. First and foremost - this is the original right food, which begins with the first birthdays of a person, that is, preventive. The second direction is part of the therapeutic complex measures to restore health, shattered by the disease. As a rule, any disease after the drug therapy, the use of other methods and methods of treatment, ends with the appointment of dietary meals to fix the therapeutic result and prevent a relapse of the disease. In addition, there is a group of diseases that are supervised by a diet that acts as an independent treatment method. This is due to the fact that the food contains an infinite number of chemicals and compounds that directly affect the metabolism of the human body.

The ration or dose rate, the regime, the frequency of food intake are developed at the state level, usually the ministries responsible for the health of the country. In different states there are specific features of the norm and a set of products, depending on the territory, climatic features and cultural traditions. However, the concept of dietary nutrition has some common parameters and signs taken around the world. This sounds like this:

The basis of a rational diet is the principle of rationality, which is measured by qualitative and quantitative parameters. Dietary nutrition should correspond to the physiological needs of the human body, fully replenishing its energy costs.

Thus, ideally, a diet is nothing more than a reasonable diet of a perfectly healthy person who aspires to maintain a healthy body condition for as long as possible.

Dietary nutrition in the therapeutic aspect

What is dietary nutrition, if we consider this concept in its therapeutic aspect? In this vein, the diet is aimed at accelerating the recovery of a sick person. The main clinical functions that have dietary nutrition are to support immune activity, to create maximum rest systems (primarily digestive), to normalize body weight. Properly composed dietary nutrition helps to prolong the period of remission in case of a serious illness, and vice versa - a violation of the diet can trigger an aggravation of the disease. Modern medicine, its scientific research and achievements in the field of biology, allow us to apply therapeutic nutrition at times on a par with medicamental therapy. Specialization in dietology, which was recently considered something exotic, is now becoming more popular and in demand. In the scientific world, the first "stars" of dietetics "appeared quite a long time ago. One of the founders of the science of nutrition in the last century was the famous therapist, the excellent clinician M.I. Pevzner, who owns the famous saying: "If there is no therapeutic diet, there is no rational treatment."

The basic rules that presupposes dietary nutrition. 

• Exclusion of certain products and substances in accordance with the clinical problem; 
• Increase the frequency of food intake (fractional reception); 
• Some types of products must be subjected to specific technological processing; 
• Compliance with the principle of diversity and usefulness; 
• Compliance with the principles of shining - thermal, chemical and mechanical.

Dietary food: more about the rules

If a person suffers from diabetes, sugar, starchy foods are excluded from the menu, compensating them with sugar substitutes - sorbitol, xylitol. With diagnosed digestive diseases (gastroduodenitis, peptic ulcer disease), all products, substances that have irritating properties (acid products, spices, marinades, fried foods, etc.) are excluded.

Mechanical shchazhenie is a grinding and steam processing, the used products. As a rule, mechanical shchazhenie involves the use of products that do not contain vegetable fiber. Chemical shade - exclusion from the supply of sharp, salty, acidic products or their restriction. The thermal aspect of shining is the exclusion of contrasting dishes with temperature (excessively hot or very cold food). If the basic rules of the diet are observed, then a strict diet can become a temporary phenomenon in the life of the patient, but a sparing diet should continue to be the norm and a prerequisite.

Dietary nutrition is almost an ideal concept in the therapeutic sense, if it can favorably affect the acid-base balance, motor, juice, evacuation functions of the digestive system. And in the preventive sense, dietary nutrition can be one of the effective ways of maintaining health.
