The icing has the reputation of growing because of its sugar content.
With the arrival of sunny days, many decide to monitor their weight to reach the goal of “Summer body “ at the beach. This motivation involves good resolutions on food. Gold “There are a lot of misconceptions in this area “ Issumed Ysaline Benakli, dietician-nutritionist. The icing, which begins to settle on the stalls, does not escape it. “It is a very appreciated fruit for its sweet and fruity good taste. Unconsciously, you can easily deduce” it is so good that it is necessarily bad for the ligne? “” questions the dietician-nutritionist. Thus, we often hear that we should not eat more than 4-5 so as not to grow. What about?
Composed of 86% water, the cherry has several health benefits. “Our body has daily needs in carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins and minerals. Cherries, like many other fruits, will participate in covering these needs” explains Ysaline Benakli. The fruit is rich in fiber, promoting a good intestinal transit. It also contains vitamin C which reduces fatigue and vitamin B9 which improves cell renewal. Its potassium and beta-carotenes will contribute to the maintenance of the immune system and to the functioning of nervous and muscle systems.
So no reason to deprive yourself of it? Even when you pay attention to your line? “No” answers Ysaline Benakli. “The average of the fruits contains 59 kilocalories per 100 grams. The cherries are 56 kilocalories per 100 grams. We are therefore quite average. “ The idea of a “very caloric” fruit to avoid when you want to lose weight is therefore false. Generally “There is nothing too bad or too caloric in a diet, everything is a question of balance and quantity. You should not demonize any food even if there is a weight loss objective” clarifies the specialist. “If you don’t consume astronomical quantities repeatedly, there is no problem.” That’s to say ?
According to our interlocutor, we can eat a portion of cherries per day without risk for the line, which corresponds to a handle. Obviously, we favor seasonal cherries, much better for the organization. “We vary with another fruit to obtain the second portion of fruit recommended per day and diversify the nutrients” she advises to finish.
