Nutritionist Alexey Kabanov named the most harmful additives for the body in ice cream. Shared with DEA News Recommendations for analyzing the composition of this dessert.
Therefore, the main attention should be paid to the sugar content of the product, as ice cream is a sweet and fatty product, which can lead to serious consequences, such as an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes and dementia, Kabanov noted.
According to an expert, the most dangerous for the body are the following E-additives: emulsifiers (soy lecithin, E476), stabilizers (carob gum, guar gum, E407), brightening agent (E904), dyes (E150), acidity regulators (E270, E331) . Most often, such additives are used by foreign manufacturers.
The nutritionist recommends choosing vegetarian ice cream made with protein-based soy milk, as it is healthier than classic ice cream made with cow’s milk cream. The expert explained that if a product contains more than three E-additives, it may indicate that it is not natural and it is better not to buy such ice cream.
