Kefir is a tasty and healthy drink.

Many people love this product because it has a positive effect on the condition of the intestines.

But sometimes such a popular drink can cause health problems.

Nutritionist Zukhra Pavlova said this on her Telegram channel.

As the doctor noted, fermented milk products cannot be consumed at any time of the day. Here you need to remember some rules.

Pavlova noted that drinking kefir at night can provoke a sharp decrease in blood glucose levels.

This is due to the fact that insulin activity is at its maximum during this period. If the situation is repeated, there is a risk of carbohydrate metabolism disorder and diabetes.

The doctor recommended to refuse kefir in the evening. It is advisable not to eat or drink anything before going to bed and at night. Only water is allowed at such a time.
