Who shouldn't eat pancakes on Maslenitsa
Firstly, pancakes made from wheat flour are contraindicated for those with celiac disease – gluten intolerance.
Secondly, contraindications to eating pancakes are obesity, metabolic syndrome and diabetes.
Thirdly, you cannot eat pancakes during an exacerbation of diseases of the stomach and biliary system.
And even healthy people should not eat pancakes in large quantities and every day.
According to the doctor, pancakes, especially those with toppings and fillings, are quite heavy food.
To reduce the load on the digestive system, you should bake pancakes without oil in a non-stick frying pan.
Ovnanyan also recommended giving preference to light fillings.
Two or three pancakes won’t do any harm, the doctor summed up.
