The nutritionist named the acceptable number of protein bars per day.
On April 17, endocrinologist and nutritionist Anton Polyakov told how many protein bars you can eat per day.
In conversation with aif.ru The doctor stated that most protein bars cannot be considered a healthy snack, and their consumption should be limited to one piece per day. According to him, such products often contain a high concentration of simple sugars, which makes them more like sweets than a really healthy product. He noted that some manufacturers use more natural ingredients and do without sugar, but this is rather an exception.
The expert added that sports bars often contain several types of sugar at once, which raises questions in terms of benefits. In this regard, he recommended eating them no more than once a day and taking them more like a dessert after the main meal.
Polyakov explained that a high-quality protein bar should contain mainly protein, natural additives and safe sweeteners, such as stevia, as well as the emulsifier lecithin. kp.ru .
