Even one pancake can be deadly for people with chronic diseases.
Russian nutritionist Elena Solomatina warned about this.
A specialist named diseases that can kill you from just one pancake in a conversation with Life.ru.
What diseases can cause you to die from one pancake?
As Solomatina explained, pancakes can be both harmful and healthy, depending on the composition of the dough and the method of preparation.
A healthy serving of pancakes varies from person to person.
Hypothetically, you can die even from one pancake if you have chronic diseases such as cholecystitis and pancreatitis.
Moreover, a person may not even know about these diseases, the nutritionist noted.
If an infection is added to the inflammation, the specialist explained, purulent processes may begin in the pancreas or gallbladder, and if a stone blocks a duct, enzymes may begin to digest the organ itself, which threatens necrosis.
Without urgent medical care, the outcome could be disastrous, Solomatina warned.
There have been cases throughout history where people have set records for eating pancakes.
For example, one Russian ate 73 pancakes in a short period of time and survived. The nutritionist warned against striving for such records.
There is definitely no need to strive for records like 73 pancakes, the expert said.
