The fat has long ceased to be just an element of Ukrainian cuisine - nowadays nutritionists are increasingly talking about its health benefits. However, according to experts, the effective effect of fat on the body is possible only if you adhere to a reasonable norm - not more than 30 grams per day.
For the benefit to be maximum, doctors recommend using fat in the morning and even on an empty stomach. In combination with vegetables flavored with natural oil and vinegar, the fat helps to saturate the body with antioxidants and provides the perfect start of the day.
Five reasons start a day with fat
The first reason is digestive stimulation. The fat activates bile synthesis, which promotes better digestion of food throughout the day. This is especially important for people with a sluggish gastrointestinal tract or those who suffer from digestive disorders.
The second is the strengthening of blood vessels and cardiovascular system. The fat contains fat -soluble vitamins A, D and E, as well as unsaturated fatty acids that help to cleanse the vessels of cholesterol plaques.
The third is the improvement of brain work. The fat contains lecithin - a substance that supports the health of the nervous system and vessels of the brain. This increases the concentration and improves memory.
The fourth is an increase in immunity. If you consume fat in the morning regularly, the body receives a source of healthy fats and the so -called "good" cholesterol, which strengthen the body's defenses.
Fifth is a great alternative to harmful snacks. The fat does not contain carbohydrates, so it does not contribute to the weight gain, but for a long time retains the feeling of satiety and provides energy for the first half of the day.
How to use fat
The best option is a small piece of fat with vegetables or rye bread on an empty stomach. It is not necessary to combine it with alcohol or heavy food, especially in the evening. For optimal effect, choose fat without meat (white, peel), preferably salted or boiled, not fried.
