December has begun and the season of the traditional New Year's delicacy, tangerines, has started in Ukraine!

Bright orange fruits are already on sale in almost all retail outlets, and children are increasingly asking their parents to buy tangerines. Citrus fruits are a very healthy dessert!

Why is mandarin useful?

Children like it because it is sweet, and adults give it to children without fear, because it contains only 10.5% sugar and many (C, B1, B2, provitamin A) vitamins. In addition, tangerine contains pectin substances and important mineral salts. You can make sweet juice from mandarin.

Who shouldn't eat tangerines

1. Children who have problems with the gastrointestinal tract should completely abandon the fruit. The fact is that tangerines contain a fairly large amount of acid, it negatively affects the gastrointestinal tract, can provoke an exacerbation of chronic colitis, gastritis and peptic ulcer disease.

Attention! If a child suffers from one of these ailments, then he should avoid all citrus fruits.

2. Parents should be careful when giving tangerines to children who are prone to allergies. Citrus fruits are considered a very large allergen, they can cause a reaction at any time, even if everything was normal before.

  • Tangerines sometimes provoke hives, skin rashes, and in severe cases, even anaphylactic shock.
Separately, we note that experts do not recommend using tangerines in the last stages of pregnancy, as well as during breastfeeding (again, due to allergens that will enter the milk).
