Doctors named 6 vegetables that do more harm than good

WHO experts recommend making up the diet in such a way that there are many vegetables in it. At the same time, some such products do more harm than good. Doctors told about which products to pay attention to.

The most complaints from experts turned out to be eggplants. They contain solanine. This is a poisonous substance, the use of which is not permissible for arthritis, colitis, kidney stones, cholecystitis, low iron levels and allergies to solanum. Doctors recommend choosing only young eggplants, be sure to cut off the skin and soak them in salt water. There are no fewer questions about potatoes. This vegetable also contains solanine. A large amount of starch is also dangerous. Nutritionist Tamara Kracheninova reminded that this substance will break down during storage into fructose, glucose and other simple carbohydrates. At the same time, potatoes have a low energy value, so it will contribute to gaining extra body weight.

Tomatoes are also a threat. This vegetable contains vitamins C and B. The flavonoid naringen reduces inflammation, and lycopene reduces the risk of cancer and heart disease. Tomatoes have a beneficial effect on the condition of the artery walls and reduce the level of bad cholesterol. At the same time, the vegetable can pose a threat to human health. Tomatoes are often grown in greenhouses in soil containing chemical fertilizers. For this reason, you can get more harmful substances from tomatoes than useful ones.

Medics also called canned green peas questionable. This product may cause flatulence. In addition, it contains a lot of sugar and salt. This dish is not recommended for use if there are problems with the gastrointestinal tract or diseases of the pancreas. The product is not recommended for gout and cholecystitis. Nutritionists advise to eat no more than 3-4 spoons of canned peas a day.

Beetroot is known as a very useful product, but doctors do not recommend getting too excited about it. The vegetable is dangerous for gastritis with increased acidity and for urolithiasis. Cabbage, beloved by many, was also on the list. This vegetable is contraindicated in diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and diseases of the thyroid gland. The product can cause pain in the intestines and flatulence. This is especially true of sauerkraut.
