Doctor and TV presenter Alexander Myasnikov said that nuts are considered the most useful product. He told about this on the air of the TV channel "Russia 1".
“Nuts have everything. () the most useful product - in all respects,”said the doctor. According to him, nuts contain zinc, chromium and selenium. In particular, pine nuts contain large amounts of zinc. However, the doctor advised adding them to the daily diet in small portions.
In February, Myasnikov spoke about the ideal food product in which he does not see a single flaw. We are talking about legumes: they contain a lot of fiber, which the body cannot do without. Fiber also reduces the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease. In addition, legumes contain vegetable protein, which is necessary for hypertensive patients.
Previously, the doctor named foods that reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. A glass of red wine, four cups of coffee a day and a glass of milk will lower the risk of diabetes, he said. The doctor clarified that genetics, excess weight and age affect the occurrence of the disease, while the presence of a large amount of fat on the abdomen may indicate insulin insensitivity.
