Nutritionist Elena Solomatina said that eating bread at night is not recommended, since such food can lead to a set of extra pounds. In an interview with Moscow 24, she clarified that bread is a source of a large amount of carbohydrates that are used by the body to generate energy.
The expert explained that during the day, eating bread helps the body not get tired, coping with routine stress. At night, the body consumes significantly fewer calories and does not need energy sources. If you eat bread before rest, then its carbohydrates will be used by the body to replenish fat reserves.
Solomatina added that at night you don’t even need to eat healthy bread, rye or whole grains – in his case, the risk of extra pounds is still present. She recommended eat bread in the morning – at breakfast and lunch. It is best to buy bread containing whole grains, since its absorption does not lead to a sharp spike in blood sugar levels.
