Flour biscuits may taste good, but they have many disadvantages in terms of health. Famous dietician Aayushi Yadav is telling why eating flour biscuits with tea is harmful.
Disadvantages of eating refined flour biscuits with tea
1. High glycemic index
Refined flour is a food that has a very high glycemic index, meaning that eating it causes blood sugar levels to rise rapidly. This can prove especially harmful for diabetic patients. The repeated rapid increase and decrease in glucose levels increases the risk of insulin resistance.
2. Weight gain
Biscuits made from refined flour are usually high in calories and their regular consumption can help in weight gain. The processed carbohydrates found in them are digested quickly and increase hunger again, causing a person to eat more food. This is a major reason for weight gain.
3. Nutrient Deficiency
Refined flour has very few nutrients. It lacks essential vitamins, minerals and fiber. For this reason, biscuits made from refined flour are incomplete in terms of nutrition and eating them does not provide the body with essential nutrients, which satisfies hunger but can harm health.
4. Risk of heart disease
Biscuits made from refined flour may contain trans fats and saturated fats, which are harmful for heart health. These fats can increase the level of bad cholesterol in the blood and reduce the level of good cholesterol, increasing the risk of heart disease.
5. Digestive problems
Refined flour is bad for the digestive system and its consumption can cause problems like constipation, acidity and indigestion. Due to the lack of fiber in it, the digestion process slows down, which can cause heaviness and discomfort in the stomach.
