Gastroenterologist named three harmful soups for health

Gastroenterologist and hepatologist Andrei Konstandenkov has called solyanka, pea and mushroom soups the most harmful to health.

In a conversation with the site "Doctor Peter" on November 21, the specialist noted that such soups are contraindicated for people suffering from GI diseases. They contain a lot of salt, fat and substances that are not digested by the body.

Gastroenterologist said that because of the meat delicacies in the hodgepodge is full of saturated fat, preservatives and salt. Such a combination irritates the mucous membranes of the GI tract, retains fluid in the body and provokes the formation of kidney stones.

In mushroom soup, according to him, fewer calories, but there is chitin, which due to the lack of necessary enzymes is almost not digested by the human body, notes 360.ru. Such soup is contraindicated in gastritis, peptic ulcer, pancreatitis and inflammation of the intestines.

Consumption of pea soup is fraught with abdominal bloating and heaviness. The doctor advised to cook pea soup on a light broth of turkey or chicken, excluding smoked ribs and brisket. This will help to reduce the load on the digestion, notes Life.ru.

November 22, nutritionist nutritionist Sofia Kovanova in a conversation with the site aif.ru warned that the winter diet should be organized in a "warm" format. According to her, all fruits and vegetables should be subjected to heat treatment. Greens should be steamed with boiling water, and vegetables should be stewed or "poached". If a person is prone to colds, you can add soups to the diet, writes RT.

On the same day, nutritionist Lyudmila Denisenko told kp.ru about drinks that can boost immunity. According to her, regular consumption of clean water in sufficient quantities is the main factor in balancing the body's energy system. Also useful are fermented milk products, rosehip decoction, green or chamomile tea, non-alcoholic mulled wine with ginger.

In April last year, nutritionist Margarita Koroleva in a conversation with NSN said that soups are especially useful for children and the elderly, and also help to absorb minerals. Soups prepare the gastrointestinal tract to digest heavier food. According to the specialist, it is better to choose soups not on meat broths.

Earlier, therapist Daria Utyumova told Izvestia that soups are an integral part of Russian and many other cuisines of the world. In summer they are refreshing and light, and in winter - hearty and warming. It is important for an adult to eat soups two or three times a week.
