The most dangerous desserts for health are waffles, caramel and bars. In an interview with Moscow 24 on this subject said nutritionist Elena Solomatina.
According to him, these products contain large amounts of flavoring and sugar, and waffles also contain trans fats.
“Trans fats and sugar destroy cell membranes. The protein becomes sugary and can no longer function. As a result, metabolic processes are disrupted. First of all, the cardiovascular system suffers: cholesterol levels rise, plaques form, followed by stroke and heart attack,” explained the doctor.
The nutritionist also talked about how to overcome sweet addiction. First of all, he advises to find out the reason for its occurrence. For example, insulin resistance may occur. In this case, it is important to add foods containing chromium to your diet. This includes seafood, among other things.
“If the cause is serotonin deficiency, include foods rich in tryptophan: turkey, bananas, dairy products, tomatoes. Iodine and selenium if there are problems with the thyroid gland. These can be found in seafood and Brazil nuts,” Solomatina continued.
The doctor advises you to try to replace your usual sweets with healthy ones (marshmallows, marshmallows, natural marmalade and sorbet).
