Some popular diet salads can cause serious health issues.
Russian gastroenterologist Yevgeni Belousov warns about the dangers of the "Brush" salad made from raw vegetables.
According to the doctor, this salad containing beetroot, carrots, cabbage, and lemon juice can aggravate gastritis, ulcers, and colitis.
Cabbage and raw beetroot cause bloating, while lemon juice irritates sensitive stomachs.
Another diet salad made of Chinese cabbage, cucumber, green apple, dill, cilantro, and lime juice lacks fat, hindering absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
