Kvass is a favorite drink for many. And for good reason.
It not only saves you from thirst in the summer heat, but also saturates the body with useful elements that help all body systems function normally.
Gastroenterologist Ekaterina Kashukh spoke about this in more detail in a conversation with representatives of the publication Gazeta.Ru .
The specialist noted that kvass contains vitamins B1, B2, E, PP, as well as other substances that have a positive effect on the heart, blood vessels and nervous system.
But it is important to remember that only homemade kvass without dyes, sugar, or aromatic or flavor additives will be beneficial.
As for the drink from the store, it will only harm your health.
This product should not be consumed by diabetics, patients with gastrointestinal diseases, hypertension and liver diseases. Those who watch their figure should also avoid the drink.
It is worth remembering that kvass is a fermentation product. This applies to both homemade and industrial products. Therefore, the drink will contain a percentage of alcohol. This means that kvass should not be drunk by those who are going to drive, and pregnant women should also avoid the drink.
