The nutritionist told about the necessary nutrition during the exam

Nutritionist and nutritionist Roman Pristansky told how to eat properly during the Unified State Exam (USE).

In an interview with Radio 1 on Friday, May 22, the specialist noted that special attention should be paid to the choice of drinks. According to him, it is better to take water or tea with a low sugar and mineral content, avoiding sodium-free water, as it can increase thirst and cause frequent trips to the toilet.

He added that sparkling water is not the best option for an exam: it can spill or distract others.

Speaking about snacks, Pristansky noted that small sweets like dragees, which quickly give energy, as well as berries, such as raspberries or blueberries, are suitable because they are convenient and do not interfere with others.

The nutritionist stressed that snacking is not a substitute for a full breakfast, and reminded of the importance of calmness and stress-free.
