One of the worst for Pancakes and waffles, which are eaten with various sweet additives, are considered immune breakfasts. Nutritionist Courtney D'angelo told about this.

“Pancakes and waffles are often eaten with added sugar, syrup, chocolate or whipped cream,” said the specialist. According to her, a large amount of sugar in the body can harm the immune system. Experts in the field of healthy eating warn that it is necessary to avoid such dishes, because they contain almost no protein and fiber.

For example, a study says that high sugar levels in the body can increase inflammation and weaken the immune system.

At the same time, D'Angelo said that it is not necessary to always refuse dessert for breakfast. To have a healthy immune system and still eat pancakes or waffles, you just need to increase their nutritional value.

“If you want to eat pancakes or waffles for breakfast, try adding protein powder, fiber and antioxidants to the recipe. For example, add blueberries to the dish instead of chocolate, or replace white wheat flour with oatmeal, which is rich in dietary fiber,” the nutritionist advised.
