X Use pork bones and chicken with skin to make soup
√  Suggest using lean pork or remove chicken skin instead to reduce fat.
　　
X Choose ingredients with high fat content, such as chicken wings, beef short ribs, pork ribs, fish belly, etc.
√  It is recommended to select low-fat meats and add vegetables as side dishes to make it healthier.
　　
X Buy pre-marinated meat
√  Use natural seasonings, such as garlic, black pepper and herbs instead for a healthy meal.
　　
X Air fried food is considered healthy without oil
√  Simple and light cooking methods such as boiling, braising, stir-frying, pan-frying and baking should be used more often.
　　
X Dishes must be flavorful and seasoned with a lot of salt and sugar
√  Try to enhance flavor with fresh spices and fragrant ingredients.
　　
X Have processed food for meals
√  Avoid processed food and replace it with fresh meat and vegetables. Eat at least two or more different types of fruits and vegetables at each meal is the best.
