On hot summer days, for many people ice cream becomes not only a dessert, but also a replacement for a full meal.

A cold dessert seems much more appetizing than a hot soup or roast.

Is this correct? How much of this delicacy can you eat per day?

Nutritionists urge people to stop eating ice cream regularly.

It is believed that the norm is 2-3 times a week, 100-120 g, but only on condition that the person does not have problems with excess weight and health.

What is the reason for such a restriction? Experts explain that the dessert contains a lot of fat and sugar, which means its energy value is very high.

One average serving of crème brûlée contains 200 kcal. Nutritionists recommend reducing the amount of sweets and pastries on days when ice cream is added to the menu.

Among the wide variety of ice cream types, preference should be given to sherbets, fruit ice or ice cream without syrups and chocolate.

Some categories of people should refrain from eating sweet desserts altogether, in particular those who suffer from obesity and diabetes.

Ice cream is also not recommended for people who have been diagnosed with glucose intolerance.
