Nutritionist Solntseva debunked the myth about the dangers of bread during weight loss

A popular myth about the need to completely abandon flour when losing weight can harm health, since bread contains many nutrients. About this in an interview with RIA Novosti said the candidate of medical sciences, dietician Tatiana Solntseva.

According to her, experts never tell people who seek to reduce body weight, the need to completely eliminate flour products from the diet. In this situation, you just need to consume a moderate amount of bread. “Weight can be gained from any food if you eat a lot of it. Useful bread, on the contrary, can contribute to weight loss, said Solntseva.

The nutritionist noted that to lose weight, you need to spend more calories than you consume. She also noted that bread enriched with useful substances can improve digestion, gut microbiota and positively affect metabolism.

“All this will help slow down the absorption of substances that are unnecessary to us, such as saturated fats, cholesterol, simple sugars,” she said.
