It's no secret that we all love hearty and tasty food. But at the same time, not many are aware that not only the taste of food depends on the combination of dishes and products, but also its effect on the digestive system. Probably, many have noticed that even after a hearty dinner, an unprecedented lightness is felt, or, conversely, a small snack leads to heaviness in the stomach and drowsiness.
The fact is that some products are best consumed separately from each other and then they will only benefit.
First courses, side dishes, meat are best consumed half an hour after fruit, no matter how absurd it may sound. The thing is that fruits are digested very quickly and after about 40 minutes they are already sent from the stomach to the intestines. If you eat fruit for dessert, it will get stuck in your stomach, causing discomfort, bloating, or epigastric pain.
Who doesn't love eating a chop with rice or potatoes? There are probably few such people. As it turns out, this combination of dishes will lead to flatulence or indigestion. Why is this happening? Yes, because completely different enzymes are responsible for the digestion of these products, which do not get along well with each other.
For any illness, it is recommended to drink as much liquid as possible, freshly squeezed juices are naturally welcome. While taking some cough medicines, it is worth giving up citrus fruits or juices from them for a while, because the substances contained in citrus fruits block the enzymes that absorb the active substance of the drug. As a result of such a tandem, drugs will not be absorbed, but will accumulate in the blood, subsequently leading to insomnia or hallucinations.
Fried or boiled potatoes plus tomato salad … What could be simpler and tastier? Indeed, this is a fairly popular combination. In fact, it turns out that the acid contained in tomatoes, when interacting with starch, leads to digestive problems, a feeling of heaviness and fatigue. Exactly the same effect is observed when mixing rice with tomato.
According to the advertisements, this combination is considered the healthiest food for kids and schoolchildren. In fact, both food contains fast carbohydrates, their joint use will lead to a sharp jump in blood glucose and to the same sharp decline. As a result, after half an hour - an hour you will again want to have a snack.
The most common drink during the holidays is wine, which is offered to be eaten with chocolate, sweet fruit, or cake. When drinking alcoholic beverages, the production of insulin increases. If alcohol is consumed with sweets, easily digestible carbohydrates will be deposited as fat.
The first thing that can be seen on the network in a fast food cafe. Considering that both hamburger and french fries are not considered healthy foods, the combination as a whole is a bit of a disaster. Regular use of such a complex will lead to premature aging or various inflammatory processes.
The duet strongly resembles a dry breakfast with milk. Quickly assimilated sugars from baked goods and juice provoke a sharp jump in blood glucose and, of course, an equally sharp decline. After some, very short, time after breakfast, you can feel malaise, fatigue, irritability and hunger.
