Go to the KP Photo Bank. Nutrionist Ekaterina Kulova explained to Nizhny Novgorod residents how much kvass can be drunk per day. Her words are conveyed by the editor-in-chief of MIА "Stationary Press" Alexey Nikonov in his Telegram channel. According to Kulova, kvass should be consumed separately from food, and fans of okroshka are advised to add more greens, cucumbers, radishes, and less potatoes. To ease digestion, okroshka can be prepared with kefir or natural yogurt. The thirst-quenching effect of kvass is a misconception. All types of kvass contain sugar, so it should be consumed with caution. The recommended dose of kvass is 1–2 glasses (200–400 ml) per day. It is best to drink kvass chilled, but not icy. People with gastrointestinal issues, diabetes, insulin resistance, gout, allergies, and pregnant women should avoid drinking kvass. Elizabeth KOPYLOVA.
