The menu must be correct and balanced.

It is important to consider that there are foods that need to be reduced in the diet and consumed only in limited quantities.

As the doctor noted, these are not all the disadvantages of consuming such a product. She also said that red meat can lead to problems with the heart and blood vessels. The product increases the risk of developing oncology.

The doctor advised replacing this component of the diet with healthier foods: nuts, fish, poultry, legumes.

Sitnikova also recommended giving up sweet soda, which contains a large amount of sugar.

Excess of the latter leads to obesity and diabetes. She reminded that sugar should not make up more than ten percent of the total caloric content of the diet.
