Every girl knows the axiom: a healthy diet is a good figure! In the warm season, we are striving to replenish our vitamin supply. We arrange fruit, berry, vegetable unloading days and intensively grow thin. And the results are impressive: you are full of strength and energy, you have a blossoming view and a good mood. However, not everyone knows that vegetables and fruits need to be eaten competently. Otherwise, the work of the gastrointestinal tract in a short time will come to a state of imbalance.
You may be concerned about bloating, stomach pain, digestive disorders. Agree, this does not add attractiveness. The cause of discomfort can be an abundance of intractable fiber, as well as an excess of fruit acids. That is why in the autumn many people turn to doctors with gastritis or exacerbation of stomach ulcers. Meanwhile, these troubles can be avoided! Suffice it to choose a harmonious food "company" for summer gifts and observe some rules for their admission. And then you will always feel great! That the gifts of the summer went to you only for good, and the figure remained slender, use sour-milk products: kefir, yogurt and ayran - a traditional Slavic drink.
For good or for harm?
First of all, you must be sure of the quality of the foods that you use. The ideal option is to purchase vegetables and fruits grown in an ecologically clean area. Without this, a healthy diet is unthinkable! If there is no such possibility, special attention was given to precautionary measures. Always carefully my vegetables, fruits and berries before serving. Specialists also recommend sliced small pieces of vegetables soak in cold water: in two waters for 15 minutes. This will significantly reduce the concentration of nitrates.
Salads from raw vegetables and fruits - it's wonderful. They contribute to the formation of a good figure. That's just not every body is able to cope with the digestion of coarse fiber (for example, white cabbage). Therefore, complaints about bloating, flatulence are not uncommon. Do not forget: the longer the vegetables are stored, the more coarse fiber is contained in them (due to the evaporation of moisture). But baked, stewed or cooked steamed vegetables have a much milder effect on the mucous, so they fit most of us. These dishes are recommended for a healthy diet.
If the house has a juicer and you are not lazy to use it, you get an indisputable advantage. Unloading days on juices will have a beneficial effect on your overall health and your figure. Freshly squeezed juice contains pectins and a delicate fiber, which does not settle a heavy load in the stomach, but is quickly and fully digested. In addition, fiber is a good medium for growth and reproduction of beneficial microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract, and stimulates intestinal peristalsis. But remember that with peptic ulcer, exacerbation of gastritis and pancreatitis, it is not necessary to drink sour juices (for example, from green apples).
At a diabetes it is necessary to be extremely prudent with sweet roots and fruit (carrots, a beet, a potato, a Jerusalem artichoke, a pear). And excessive consumption of fresh cabbage can irritate the mucosa of the duodenal ulcer and stomach, especially with a tendency to gastritis. But if you are absolutely healthy, the cabbage dishes will only benefit you. In summer, try to eat as much greens as possible (the recommendation does not apply to those with a tendency to form oxalate sand in the kidneys). Dill contains vitamins C, P, B1, B2, carotene, minerals (iron, phosphorus, calcium, potassium). In parsley there is a lot of potassium, and it also improves the processes of hematopoiesis. Celery has a beneficial effect on the heart, removes excess uric acid from the body. In addition, herbs (especially basil, fennel, coriander, dill) improve digestion, have a beneficial effect on the work of the gastrointestinal tract. Grinded greens can be added to freshly squeezed juice (for example, carrot-apple). This drink perfectly quenches thirst and saturates the body with valuable substances. Sweet fruits should always be eaten separately from the main meal. If they eat right after a hearty meal, this slows down the processes of digestion of food, causes fermentation and putrefaction in the intestine. As a result, useful microorganisms die, the immune system is depressed, and we begin to ache more often. Remember: by following the rules of separate nutrition, you strengthen your health.
The best company for vegetables
Undoubtedly, fiber is very useful for our body, it acts as a soft scraper - it removes toxins and toxins. But everything needs a measure! Unlimited amounts of fiber can damage the tender villus and intestinal wall. That this does not happen, for a full-fledged work of the gastrointestinal tract and prevention of exacerbations of chronic diseases at any time of the year on your table should be sour-milk products, vegetable oil, cream (preferably melted) oil, cereals. These products neutralize the irritating effect of fruit acids and fiber, protect the gastric mucosa.
Kefir with slices of berries, fruit salad with natural whipped cream, refreshing in the heat of okroshka, a glass of curdled milk - dishes with sour milk products greatly improve the work of the intestines. Try also Ayran - diluted with water yogurt with the addition of spices. It not only perfectly quenches thirst, but also fills the intestines with useful bacteria. Do not forget about milk. Natural milk without synthetic additives usually does not cause any unpleasant sensations in the gastrointestinal tract, it is well digested and digested. But milk should be consumed separately from other foods. Also, sour-milk products are not only an integral part of a healthy diet, but also a good figure.
Milk not only has nutritional properties, but also carries some positive information. According to Ayurvedic canons, milk is the most unusual product. After all, it supports and gives strength to the newly born organism. We can say that together with this high energy drink the child is given the love of the mother. In addition, milk contains virtually all the substances necessary for the development and growth of the baby. Many babies are happy to drink a cup of milk for the night. It reduces the secretion of gastric juice, acts on the receptors of the stomach and has a calming effect. It is necessary to take into account the quality of milk, such as the fixation of toxins, which can come with food. Therefore, during an acute illness (sore throat, flu) you should observe a dairy-free diet to reduce the level of pathogenic mucus in the body. But this feature of milk can be successfully used in the treatment of bronchitis. And if milk of high quality, it is quickly and easily absorbed by our body, without causing any discomfort in the gastrointestinal tract.
Our body also needs fats: without them, the skin will not be elastic, and the hair is shiny. With vegetable oil (preferably olive), season salads. Cucumbers, tomatoes and greens can be added cottage cheese - it will be unusually tasty, and most importantly, a salad! If you eat only raw vegetables and fruits, this is fraught with a deficiency of proteins, which are the building blocks for cells and a source of essential amino acids. Include in your diet lean and dietary meat (beef, rabbit meat). If you are not a meat-eater, cook sea fish: pollock, perch. You can also eat carp and pike-perch - habitual for our organism kinds of fish. To fish dishes, add mint (flavor), parsley, white pepper.
We begin prevention

If you really care about a healthy diet, good figure and good health, use the following advice. Specialists recommend on the waning moon to drink an infusion of flax seeds or a decoction of oats. Flax and oats have an enveloping effect and relieve irritation of the gastric mucosa. Take a dessert spoon of cereals, pour a glass of boiling water and let it brew for 10-15 minutes. Take it at night or in the morning on an empty stomach one hour before a meal. A little later (in October-November), you can switch to sweetish porridge in milk: pumpkin, rice, buckwheat. This is also a great way to maintain your gastrointestinal tract in good shape and not gain extra calories.
If you have high acidity, this is not an excuse to give up vitamin berries and fruits. To weaken acidity, for example, black currant, prepare from it a tasty and healthy drink with yogurt. Berries are thoroughly washed, crushed in a blender, and then rub through a sieve. Add the resulting mass to kefir. You can also put in a cocktail a few ice cubes, brown sugar, honey, flower pollen - choose ingredients according to your taste. Such a useful drink you can cook yourself even though every day!
