Collecting birch sap is almost a tradition. In spring, buckets, bags or other containers appear on almost every birch tree.
The juice is collected, kvass is made from it and even canned. But is this drink really that healthy and safe?
Let's try to figure out how healthy juice is and whether you can drink it in unlimited quantities.
Benefits of juice
The juice contains vitamins B1 and B12, essential oils and phytoncides, glucose, fructose, organic acids, as well as potassium, iron, manganese and sodium.
The drink has a diuretic effect, and its regular consumption improves blood composition and strengthens the immune system.
Daily norm
If we talk about the restoration of the body, it is recommended to drink a glass of juice per day. The course takes 2-3 weeks.
Drink the juice not on an empty stomach, but 30 minutes before a meal.
