Nutritionist and endocrinologist Oksana Mikhaleva listed the most harmful dishes on the New Year’s table.
The popular holiday menu often consists of appetizers, salads, hot dishes, desserts and drinks, including alcoholic beverages. The most harmful combinations in festive dishes are alcohol, salt, sugar and fats.
This combination leads to an exacerbation of gastrointestinal diseases, as well as to a worsening of compensation for acute pancreatitis, hypertension and diabetes. In addition, it contributes to weight gain and eating disorders while on vacation.
Meat is at the forefront of junk food because it contains a lot of nitrites, salt and fat, which form dangerous carcinogens in the body. New Year’s salads come second, especially those containing sausage, potatoes and mayonnaise, as this is bad for digestion and can lead to weight gain.
According to RT, fried chicken is third in the rankings, especially if it’s not skinned before cooking.
“There is a lot of fat under the skin and it is completely absorbed into the meat, while the delicious fried crust contains a lot of the carcinogen benzpyrene. If we drink all this with traditional sweet drinks, the risk of gaining weight during the holidays will increase several times. Drinking alcohol with such products is dangerous for the pancreas, which can lead to emergency hospitalization during the holidays,” the doctor said.
