Dietitian Tracey Parker stated that some products considered beneficial for health can have a negative effect on the cardiovascular system.
Medianews.az reports that according to her, kimchi, kombucha, fruit yogurts, smoothies, and sauerkraut support gut microflora, but may contain hidden high amounts of salt or sugar.
Parker emphasized that smoothies can cause a rapid increase in blood sugar, while fermented products raise blood pressure due to their high salt content. For this reason, their regular and excessive consumption increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
