Maslenitsa week is a great time to enjoy this treat.

Thin, delicate and lacy pancakes are perfect for breakfast, and they can also be served with tea instead of a snack. A couple of pancakes with filling can replace the main course.

At first glance, it may seem that the dish is completely safe. But this is not entirely true. The fact is that people who have encountered certain diseases should avoid such a delicacy.

Nutritionist Elena Solomatina spoke about this in a conversation with representatives of Vechernyaya Moskva .

If you have diabetes or gastrointestinal diseases, you should remove pancakes from your diet.

You shouldn’t eat them if you have problems with excess weight, since the dish is quite high in calories.

In addition, Solomatina added that pancakes should be baked, not fried. Therefore, it is better to simply grease the frying pan with oil, rather than pour it on.

It is also advisable to use healthier ingredients when making the dough and to focus on healthy fillings and toppings rather than sweet ones.
