Mayonnaise has many different flavors and uses in cooking. However, various nutritionists and adherents of a healthy lifestyle constantly criticize it, not recommending eating it.
But for whom is this sauce really harmful and even dangerous? This question was answered by the consultant on weight correction and eating behavior, nutritionist Anna Makarova.
According to her, it’s not worth putting a “no” label on any food at all – this creates the ground for breakdowns and eating disorders. In addition, mayonnaise is the basis for many other sauces, such as tartar and most industrial sauces: mushroom, garlic, cheese, and so on.
“Regardless of whether the sauce is homemade or bought in a store, it remains very high in calories: about 100 kcal per tablespoon. Now there are low-calorie mayonnaises, but this should not serve as a loss of vigilance – losing weight does not need to eat it with spoons, ”the site quotes Makarova aif.ru.
“Mayonnaise contains a significant amount of saturated fat, which we must limit in our diet to avoid the risks of cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol. That is, people with heart and vascular problems should be more careful with such a sauce in their diet.
“The main recommendation for the use of mayonnaise will be to limit the frequency of consumption and portions. This is 1.5-2 teaspoons a couple of times a week. If you like to eat Olivier at the New Year’s table, then you should not deny yourself this pleasure. Remember that there is no such product that would be worth eating in unlimited quantities without a threat to health. It’s also not worth driving yourself into prohibitions, since everything is good in moderation. ”
