Doctor explains why halva is good for the health of the elderly
You shouldn't overdo it with sweets in your diet.
But some treats are still acceptable in limited quantities.
Elderly men and women should include halva in their diet.
The whole point is that such a product contains many elements that are necessary for health, explained nutritionist Elena Solomatina, reports “ Moscow 24 ”.
You can choose sunflower, peanut, sesame, flax or almond halva.
All types contain healthy fiber, which has a positive effect on bowel function.
In addition, it should be noted that sunflower halva is rich in vitamin E, and peanut halva helps maintain skin, bones and teeth in good condition. Sesame treats contain a lot of calcium, but almond halva contains more magnesium.
Flaxseed treats contain important omega-3 fatty acids.
In a conversation with journalists, Solomatina clarified that it is advisable for people with insulin resistance, diabetes, and those who suffer from excess weight to avoid halva.
