Who and how should limit themselves in the use of mayonnaise: a comment from a nutritionist

But for whom is this sauce really harmful and even dangerous? This question was answered by the consultant for weight correction and eating behavior, nutritionist Anna Makarova.

In her opinion, putting a “no” label on any food is not worth it – this creates the ground for breakdowns and eating disorders. In addition, mayonnaise is the basis of many other sauces, such as tartare and most industrial sauces – mushroom, garlic, cheese and so on.

“Regardless of whether the sauce is homemade or bought in a store, it remains high in calories – about 100 kcal per tablespoon. Now there are low-calorie mayonnaise, but this shouldn’t serve as a loss of vigilance: losing weight doesn’t need to eat it with spoons, ”the site quotes Makarova aif.ru.

“Mayonnaise contains a significant amount of saturated fat, which we must limit in our diet to avoid the risks of cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol. That is, people with heart and vascular problems should be more careful with such a sauce in their diet.

“The main recommendation for the use of mayonnaise will be to limit the frequency of consumption and the portions. This is 1.5-2 teaspoons a couple of times a week. If you like to eat Olivier at the New Year’s table, you shouldn’t deny yourself this pleasure. Remember that there is no such product that would be worth eating in unlimited quantities without a threat to health. It is also not worth pushing for bans, since everything is good in moderation.
