Ice cream is a delicacy that is equally loved not only by children, but also by adults.

But it is important to remember some rules so that the dessert does not harm the body.

This was reported by nutritionist Antonina Starodubova, the Izvestia publication reports.

As the doctor noted, a healthy person can indulge in such a treat even in winter. But it is important to remember that you cannot overdo it with the product. You are allowed to eat up to two servings per week.

It is important to remember that the product is considered more caloric if you add icing, cookies, waffles or syrups to it.

This can increase the calorie content by two times or more.

Therefore, people with illnesses and excess weight should consult with doctors before adding sweets to their diet.

Starodubova added that sherbet contains less fat, but one should pay attention to the composition, since such a product may contain more sugar.

It is advisable to give preference to milk ice cream with the addition of berries or fruits. However, you should not combine the dessert with other high-calorie and fatty products on those days when you want ice cream.
