With this cold season, people tend to choose hotpot over other foods to keep their body warm. However, doctors are reminding those with cardiovascular diseases to stay away from greasy and salty hotpots, which are likely to trigger more health problems. According to clinical trial data, patients are 20% more likely to suffer strokes in the winter than in the summer. Many people try to stay warm during the colder months with hotpots, which often contain high-cholesterol ingredients. Dieticians say that those with cardiovascular conditions can still enjoy hotpots, and that the keys to staying warm and healthy are frequency and selection. Healthy choices for main ingredients include seafood, fish, and chicken, which should be paired with mushrooms and vegetables. Fatty pork and other high-cholesterol and high-fat choices, meanwhile, should be avoided whenever possible. ◆ 追蹤更多華視影音及圖文新聞: 1.用Plurk追蹤華視影音及圖文新聞:追蹤 2.用Twitter追蹤華視影音及圖文新聞:追蹤
