What dessert is the safest for your waistline?

Between 4 and 6 p.m., blood sugar levels drop significantly, which affects a person's energy. Scientists recommend treating yourself to dessert at this time.

Here it is important to choose the right dessert, consisting not of "empty" carbohydrates, but of healthy ingredients. American nutritionists believe that the best sweet is marshmallow.

100 grams of marshmallow contain 300 kcal, which is significantly less than other treats. What distinguishes marshmallow from other sweets is that it does not contain fats, but only proteins and carbohydrates, which are not so dangerous for the figure.
This dessert is made from sugar, fruit puree, egg whites and gelling agents (gelatin, agar or pectin). Agar and pectin are of plant origin. Pectin is obtained from apples, sugar beets or watermelons. This substance removes toxins and heavy metal ions from the body, lowers the level of "bad" cholesterol in the blood, and also has an antiviral effect. Agar is made from seaweed, it contains a lot of calcium, iron and iodine to strengthen bones and blood vessels.
Gelatin is a gelling agent of animal origin (made from cartilage, tendons and bones of animals). Marshmallow with gelatin is useful for fractures, cracks in bones, it produces a restorative effect.
