Many people are used to the fact that only sweets, baked goods or fatty foods lead to gaining extra pounds.
But it is worth remembering that there are “liquid” calories that enter the body through a number of drinks and ultimately provoke weight gain.
Mark Gadzian spoke about this in more detail in his blog, reports Rossiyskaya Gazeta .
First of all, he noted that alcohol is one of these harmful drinks.
As a doctor wrote in a Telegram channel, alcohol has a high glycemic index, which is higher than that of sugar. As a result, extra centimeters quickly appear on the waist, and the situation gets especially worse if a person regularly allows himself such drinks.
Gadziyan added that the drinks that are considered less harmful and lighter are especially dangerous.
For example, this beer. Phytoestrogens - an analogue of female sex hormones, which are present in such alcohol, provoke weight gain.
As a result, men who often overdo it with beer experience a growing belly and chest, and larger hips.
Energy drinks, soda, and store-bought fruit juices pose a danger to your figure.
It is worth adding that all of the listed products have a negative effect on the brain.
