The long-awaited New Year is approaching. People are already starting to prepare for it: decorating their homes, stocking up on food…
Well, what would New Year be without “Herring under a fur coat”?
Unfortunately, for some people, that's exactly how it has to be.
There is a category of citizens for whom this New Year symbol and gastronomic hit is categorically contraindicated.
The fact is that a multi-layered salad, doctors say, can pose a serious health risk to such people.
One of the main threats to them is fish and root vegetables seasoned with high-calorie mayonnaise.
Herring contains fat, protein and a lot of salt, and eggs, which are also present in the salad, are rich in animal protein.
As for mayonnaise, it contains a lot of salt, fat, and additional carbohydrates.
In addition, boiled vegetables aggravate the situation. Beets, carrots, potatoes can cause sugar spikes in people with type 2 diabetes and glucose intolerance.
What may happen, as experts say, is a “breakdown of the systems” responsible for carbohydrate metabolism.
Excess fluid in "Herring under a fur coat" additionally burdens the kidneys, which is harmful for people with nephrological diseases.
Also, the dish is strictly not recommended for those who have problems with the cardiovascular system, high blood pressure and atherosclerosis.
