Doctor Oksana Mikhaleva spoke about how many Easter cakes can be eaten at Easter, taking into account the physiological aspects and nutritional value of this product.

Fasting affects the functioning of the digestive system, the production of enzymes and the state of the intestinal microbiota.

Therefore, the exit from the fast should be done gradually. The doctor, as reported by Gazeta.RU , recommends including eggs and Easter cottage cheese in the diet, as this is a good option for gradually expanding the diet.

She emphasizes that the benefits of eating Easter cakes lie not only in their nutritional value, but also in the social, psychological and religious role of this dish.

Easter cakes have always been a sweet dessert, decorated with candied fruits, dried fruits, nuts and icing.
