It's hard to find a more controversial product than mayonnaise.
The older generation cannot refuse it, as it is an important element of Soviet cuisine.
But younger adherents of healthy eating try not to buy the sauce at all, considering it almost poison.
Is mayonnaise really that scary?
Experts note that in the absence of contraindications from your doctor, a small amount of mayonnaise will not cause any harm to the body.
You just need to consume it not on a daily basis and in reasonable quantities.
If you buy mayonnaise of decent quality, it will not contain harmful components. However, you should not get carried away with the sauce either. If you use it often, there is a high risk of gaining weight.
Cholesterol levels may also increase significantly. Also, if you regularly consume mayonnaise, you should monitor the total amount of salt and sugar in your diet.
Remember that mayonnaise cannot be heat treated: the product will turn into a carcinogen.
