Everyone who has ever been on a diet knows that it is necessary to consume a lot of pure water, herbal decoctions, green tea, as well as freshly squeezed juices and fresh juices. But there are drinks that lead to the completely opposite result, that is, to weight gain. What drinks are not recommended by nutritionists?
The systematic use of the following drinks can lead not only to obesity, but also to serious health problems. If possible, they should be abandoned altogether, or at least severely limited.
Alcohol
Alcoholic drinks, especially sweet wines and beer, are very high in calories and contain quite a lot of sugar. And given that the drink is accompanied by a snack, and not always healthy, the harm from drinking alcohol doubles, the load on the digestive organs increases, the amount of fats and sugars consumed grows.
Coffee helps to cheer up in the morning, and that's a fact. But over time, caffeine ceases to stimulate the nervous system, people develop drowsiness, inability to concentrate, distraction, loss of strength. To recharge a little energy, a person goes either for a cup of coffee or for a snack to replenish the missing strength and energy. The stronger the coffee addiction, the more likely it is to gain weight.
100 milliliters of lemonade contains about 2 teaspoons of sugar, and a half-liter bottle of as many as 10, that is, drinking a can of Cola, we get 2 daily norms of sugar. Some have found, in their opinion, a healthy alternative and are consuming Cola without sugar. Such people are even more harmful to health, because sugar is replaced by aspartame, a very harmful sugar substitute that negatively affects the digestive system and health in general.
Connoisseurs of tea recommend drinking this drink without sugar and any additives, this is the only way to feel the taste and aroma of the drink. Sugar added to a cup, especially in large quantities, does not have time to be completely converted into energy and is deposited in fat mass. It is not necessary to completely exclude sugar, but it is better to refuse from baking for tea.
Juices are an incomparably healthy product, but only homemade and freshly squeezed. A product purchased in a store contains no more than 50% juice, and the rest is sugars, sweeteners, flavor enhancers, preservatives and water. One 200-gram box is equal in sugar content to two or three cups of sweet tea.
