HEALTHY
LIVING:AN
INTERVIEW
WITH
PROF CHAO
LIN,
CHINA'S
EXPERT ON
NUTRITION
Prof Chao is
the
Director of the
Trace
Element
Research Unit
of
the
Chinese Peoples' Liberation Army Hos-
pital
and
Fellow of
the Research
lnsti-
tute of
Physiology
of Nutrition,
Univer
sity
of
Munich,
Germany.
As nature's
biological food chain is maintained
on
a
series of larger creatures consuming
smaller ones
to
survive, poisons
can
thus accumulate in larger creatures,
e.
9.,
in
the fish that
we
ingest. Take cau-
tion
that
freshly sprayed insecticides
(especially the synthetic ones) on veg-
etables cause
human poisoning. As
overeating results
in
obesity that strains
not only
the heart and
blood
vessels but
also
the
bile system; you may even get
diabetes. Eating till the stomach
is
only
70"/"tull means surviving longer
and
the
chance of getting cancer
is
also
less.
However, make sure that you
get all
the
vitamins
and
minerals, though. Moder-
ate
drinking
is
beneficial
but never
drink
excessively. Most people do not realise
the
importance of adequate calcium
in
the diet -
it is
not only good for the
bones
but
also for
maintaining
an
optimum
blood pressure. Regular mild drinking
gives good supply
of
calcium,
otherwise, take
a
supplement
of
400m9
of
calcium
each day. Reduce your
salt
intake but
take more
potassium-rich
food, e.9., fruits.
