Nutritionist Irina Kozlachkova claims that people suffering from hypertension should avoid consuming sauerkraut.
“This product contains a significant amount of salt. Excessive salt can lead to fluid retention, swelling, and increased blood pressure,” explains the expert.
Moreover, the nutritionist notes that sauerkraut should be consumed in limited quantities by people with gastrointestinal diseases, as it can provoke increased gas formation.
