What Vegetables Should You Eat in August: A Nutritionist's Answer
Plant foods are essential for health.
But what vegetables exactly should be included in the diet in the last month of summer?
Nutritionist Alexey Kabanov advised paying attention to zucchini, tomatoes and eggplants.
He spoke in more detail about the benefits of these products in an interview with aif.ru.
First of all, the doctor spoke about the benefits of zucchini, noting that such fruits are suitable as a replacement for potatoes or pasta.
Zucchini is more useful, rich in fiber and has a positive effect on the state of the intestines and immunity.
As for eggplants, they strengthen the walls of blood vessels and are also rich in silicon.
Speaking of tomatoes, they reduce the risk of cancer and have a positive effect on the cardiovascular system. But you shouldn't eat more than three medium-sized fruits a day, otherwise you can increase stomach acidity.
