Nutritionist Kristina Plotnikova drew attention to the benefits of such a dessert as churchkhela.

Nutritionist Plotnikova named one of the healthiest sweets in a commentary to Lente.ru . The specialist noted that in moderate quantities, churchkhela, which contains nuts and grape juice, can be safely included in the diet,

“This delicacy contains many vitamins, macro- and microelements, including B vitamins, vitamins A, PP, as well as potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, iron, iodine, selenium and zinc,” listed Kristina Plotnikova.
She added that this sweetness is useful for maintaining the functions of the visual organs and active brain function. It, among other things, contains protein and antioxidants, which have a positive effect on the condition of the cardiovascular system. But for people with gastrointestinal problems and diabetics, churchkhela may not be suitable (you should discuss this with your doctor). Plotnikova advised the rest to remember that this multi-healthy product is also sweet and high-calorie; abuse of it can easily cause excess fat deposition.

Earlier, the MedikForum.ru portal wrote that endocrinologist Albina Komissarova spoke about the positive effects of sugar on brain function.
