Nutritionist Alexey Kabanov has refuted the widespread opinion about the harm of drinking water during meals.
Excess water in the stomach does not affect the digestion process.
Nutritionist Kabanov shared this opinion in a conversation with RIA Novosti .
He explained that the myths that exist in everyday life are in no way connected with reality.
He also refuted the harm of drinking water during meals, which has nothing to do with reality.
According to the specialist, all products contain liquid, especially vegetables and fruits.
The digestion process is not related to the amount of water in the stomach.
It passes through the stomach without delay. At the same time, the digestion process takes up to four hours.
According to the expert, it is not recommended to drink food with carbonated water or sugary juice.
In this case, the calorie content of food increases, which increases the risk of weight gain.
Kabanov said that eating foods with a lot of sugar is dangerous for the heart and blood vessels.
