Here comes the time for berries and fruits. Many of them are not just tasty – they are very healthy.
For example, cherries. However, like everything in this world, the main thing is not to overdo it with the berry.
Everything in moderation. But does this mean that cherries should not be consumed daily? Let's figure it out.
Benefit
First, let's briefly list why nutritionists recommend this berry to people.
It contains antioxidants, vitamins A, C, K, minerals (potassium, magnesium, calcium) and fiber.
Hence the following positive aspects for our health:
– protection of the body from damage and the development of chronic diseases (heart disease, oncology, Alzheimer's disease, etc.);
– strengthening the immune system and bones;
– lowering cholesterol levels and promoting weight loss;
– improving memory and quality of sleep, heart function, as well as metabolism and digestion;
– improvement of skin condition.
Now to the question – can you eat cherries every day? Yes, you can, if you are careful.
Daily norm
Experts say that the daily norm is about 200 grams, that is, about one cup of berries.
This amount contains 110 kcal, 2 g protein, 1 g fat and 21 g carbohydrates.
Nutritionists recommend, if possible, enjoying cherries in the first half of the day.
Important! Cherries may not be equally useful for everyone. Some citizens are not recommended: namely:
– people with diabetes (may cause a jump in blood sugar levels);
- allergy sufferers;
– with gastrointestinal problems (may cause diarrhea, bloating, gas);
– with urolithiasis (risk of kidney stones);
- pregnant (risk of bloating) and lactating (risk of allergies in the baby) women.
