She shared that the first place in the list of the most harmful for the digestive tract is occupied by products of deep processing. “Deeply processed foods contain refined carbohydrates. With regular use, they disrupt the normal functioning of the intestines, ”the specialist warned.

Moreover, sugar causes fatty degeneration of the liver. “The World Health Organization calls for limiting sugar intake to 25 grams per day,” she stressed.

Sugary carbonated drinks and packaged juices are also dangerous for the stomach. The nutritionist continued that red meat and its processed products are harmful to the gastrointestinal tract, as they increase the risk of the formation of malignant tumors of the intestine.
