Red caviar with pancreatitis: can or can not?
Pancreatitis is a fairly serious disease requiring the patient to constantly maintain special food programs to preventIts exacerbation. From the diet, all foods that irritate the mucosa of the pancreas are excluded. But is red caviar dangerous in pancreatitis? Is it possible to use it and in what quantities?
Useful properties
Red caviar is extremely useful. It contains a variety of micro- and macroelements, contributing to a rapid recovery of forces after the disease and giving people a lot of energy and energy.
And this is due to a large number of proteins and fatty acids, which, among other things, are absorbed much better and faster by the body than the proteins contained in meat or eggs.
In addition, it is useful for those who suffer from anemia, as the caviar contains a lot of folic acid and iron, as well as vitamins of various groups and calcium.
Harm
Despite the fact that red caviar is very useful, even in the phase of persistent remission its use is strictly prohibited.
And the whole point is that it contains enzymes that increase appetite and provoke pancreatic and gastric secretion. And with inflammation, this can cause an exacerbation of the disease.
Also in the composition of this product there is a lot of salt and preservatives, which most unfavorably affect the inflamed organ. They provoke an increase in the edema of the gland, improper growth of cells, and most importantly disrupt the metabolic processes in cells and cause their death.
But besides all this, it is also very caloric and contains fats that the pancreas hardly digests even during a period of persistent remission. And if you use it in small quantities, the patient will begin to accompany abdominal pain, swelling, increased gas formation, and nausea.
Therefore, with pancreatic diseases, its use is unreasonable, despite all the useful properties and rich composition. Even a small amount can provoke an exacerbation of the disease, so it is on the list of dangerous products.
However, today the market has a huge selection of seafood, which can be used by patients with pancreatic inflammation. And they are quite possible to replace some of the valuable properties of red caviar, which is prohibited.
