Polémica: Nutricionista recomienda desayunar pizza en vez de cereales

Una nutricionista realizó una polémica declaración. Aclaró que una pizza puede ser mejor desayuno que comer cereales azucarados.

El periódico Chicago Tribune convocó la nutrióloga Chelsey Amer, quien explicó que, si bien una rebanada de pizza no es el alimento ideal, si tiene ventajas sobre los cereales azucarados.

De acuerdo a su reporte, las opciones de cereales en Estados Unidos tienen demasiada azúcar y no contienen proteínas, grasas buenas o nutrientes necesarios para el cuerpo.

Por ejemplo, el famoso cereal Cap’n Crunch, contiene 44.4 por ciento de azúcar, en cada plato de 35 gramos se concentran alrededor de 15.6 gramos, lo que equivale a 3.9 paquetes de azúcar.

Self-care isn't always massages and spa days 💆🏻... it can be saying no when you need a few extra hours of sleep 😴 or "you" time! . We skipped date night out last night for pizza night in 🍕, only in between my 3 hour afternoon nap and going to bed at 930pm... 🤷🏻‍♀️ What can I say... listening to your body is GOLD, because I woke up finally not feeling so zombie ish 💯... Plus, leftover 'za can be a balanced breakfast (amiright @eating_peanut_better?!)... check out my story 👆🏼 for more on that... . Anywhoooo we're off to our auf ruf (a Jewish pre-wedding tradition 👰🏻🤵🏻), a delicious brunch 🍳, and a day full of errands 🛍! Hope you have a FAB Saturday babes! 😘

"Se sorprenderían de saber que una rebanada de pizza y plato de cereal con leche entera contiene casi la misma cantidad de calorías. Sin embargo, la pizza tiene más proteínas, lo que te mantendrá lleno y mantendrá la sensación de saciedad durante todo el día", explicó Amer.

Because you CAN have your cake 🎂 and eat it too! 🍰 That's what L I V I N G is alllll about 😋 ... I'm still on a LIFE high from my surprise bridal shower this past weekend 👰🏻 (that I don't think is going anywhere anytime soon), where my mom got me this 👆🏼 incredible nut-free 🚫🥜 cake from @thesweetpeace! I'm OBSESSED if you're on Long Island! 🎂 Hope you have a fab FRIDAY!! 🎉 Thanks for the 📸 Dad!

Esto no quiere decir que deban comer pizza todos los días o que comer cinco rebanadas diario no vaya a repercutir en su salud. Todo se trata de balancear los alimentos y las porciones, nunca comer de más.

This weekend I told @eating_peanut_better for @thedailymeal that pizza 🍕 can actually be a more balanced breakfast option than most breakfast cereals. 😱 Aaaaand let's just say it was a shocker! 🙃 . 🌟Headlines exclaiming "Nutritionist claims pizza is a healthier breakfast than cereal" (yup, talking about moi 🙋🏻) freaked me out at first... but what's wrong with some 'za for breakfast? 🍕 No, it may not be the healthiest option out there. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But, yes, it has protein, carbs + fat, which means it's balanced. 🍽 And will keep you full. 🤗 And satisfy your pizza craving if you wake up wanting all the pizza! 😍 . ✨ Because you should eat what you want, when you want it. 🙌🏼🍕🙋🏻 . Because eating a slice of pizza for breakfast when you're really craving it will prevent you from binging on an entire pie later! Ya know, intuitive eating basics. 💁🏻 . So I'm sticking by my #pizzaforbreakfast! Come follow along what else I'm eating for this week's What I Ate Wednesday... all cravings satisfied! 💃🏽
