Ukrainian surgeon at the Lutsk hospital Feodosiy Romanyuk, in a commentary to Suspilny, told how to protect yourself from overeating during holiday feasts.
The doctor noted that “Ukrainians have a habit of eating a lot.”
“Every year after the holidays, very, very many people go [в больницу]very, very. All, as a rule, are associated with overeating,” he shared.
The surgeon said that the optimal one-time serving for each person is equal to the amount of food that fits in one palm.
“The second point is that you need to chew your food thoroughly. Many people suffer from this. We are in a hurry all our lives. And in our mouth, when we chew food, saliva is released. Saliva breaks down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates,” said Romanyuk.
