Ultra Fast Keto Boost For almost half of Italians, having lunch or dinner outside is no longer an exception for special occasions, but rather a daily habit. According to the last Catering Report of the Italian Federation of Public Exercises (FIPE), in fact, 13 million Italians eat at bars, fast food restaurants or restaurants 4 to 5 times a week. With the risk of following an unhealthy and balanced diet . According to a British study, meals consumed in public places lead to the consumption of more junk food two and a half times more than when one tastes dishes at home. While research from Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School in Singapore highlights that eating away from home increases the chances of having high blood pressure . But are they really inevitable consequences? Absolutely not, according to Dr. Federico Francesco Ferrero , nutritionist doctor in Turin, who in his new book L'apericena non c'è (Cairo) suggests the foods to be ordered and those to stay away from in order to stay in line (and healthy) despite breakfast at the bar, fast food lunches and dinners at the restaurant. Here are his tips for every occasion , from morning to night. No breakfast with cappuccino and brioche Six out of ten Italians (Fipe data) consume the first meal of the day at the bar. Cappuccino (or coffee) and brioche is the classic combination ... but it is better to give up. It provides an excessive amount of simple sugars , which are assimilated very quickly by the body, make the blood sugar rise rapidly and cause a peak in insulin production (the hormone involved in the regulation of blood glucose levels), with the consequence that within a couple of hours hunger returns to be felt . Furthermore, industrial croissants contain trans or hydrogenated fats that harm the health of the arteries , warns Dr. Federico Francesco Ferrero. And don't think of making this menu healthier by drinking fresh fruit juice You would increase the sugar load further, continues the nutritionist. Better to order a wholemeal sandwich with a teaspoon of honey and a yogurt . In this way you get your fill of fibers and carbohydrates with a low glycemic index , which give slow-release energy and do not make insulin surge. However, the ideal would be to make a savory breakfast dark sandwich with a slice of ham or salmon, milk or yogurt and a coffee. By giving more protein and healthy (non-hydrogenated) fats , it has greater satiating power . Then take a look at the buffet breakfasts (especially on business trips or on vacation) the enormous availability of food leads to taste everything and, perhaps, to make an encore.
