Nutritionist named the beneficial properties of honeysuckle

Nutritionist Roman Pristansky said that honeysuckle has a fairly low level of fast carbohydrates, and this berry is also famous for its high vitamin C content.

In an interview with Radio 1 on Tuesday, June 24, the specialist noted that honeysuckle is rich in vitamin C — about 70 mg per 100 g. According to him, eating 200-300 grams of berries a day can significantly replenish vitamin reserves, although this does not fully cover the daily allowance.

He also noted that due to the high content of flavonoids, honeysuckle has an antioxidant effect, helps the body fight oxidative stress, accelerates metabolism and supports the functioning of the cardiovascular system thanks to vitamin P and potassium. People with high acidity are advised to limit their intake to 100-200 grams per day.

According to the expert, extracts from the flowers of the plant are also beneficial — they have a choleretic effect and contain substances that accelerate apoptosis (death of defective cells), contributing to the normalization of the gastrointestinal tract and genitourinary system.
