And now we will take a closer look at the individual moments in its use.

The viscous consistency of the kissel protects the stomach from excessive acidity, enveloping its walls. The recipe for cooking natural jelly allows you to keep a lot of vitamins and minerals in the drink, so, in addition to nutrition, it is also very useful for the body.
Usage rules
As mentioned above, many useful properties make the kissel possible and even recommended for use during exacerbations of pancreatitis. So, to enter it into the diet for acute pancreatitis is allowed already from 4-5 days from the beginning of the attack. It is best if it is a fruit and berry jelly without the addition of sugar. Another condition is the temperature of the finished beverage. Do not take it in hot or cold, the optimum in this case is a warm kissel.
During the period of exacerbation of the chronic form it can be drunk from 3-4 days provided that it will be a drink based on apples and without sweeteners. When you go to the stage of remission, you should not forget about this drink. There is already allowed a significant expansion of the range of products for cooking, as well as the consumption of sugar( in the absence of diabetes).However, the assortment still needs to be kept within the acceptable limits, i.e. Do not use rather acidic berries( for example, cherry and cranberries are undesirable for these purposes).
Before you start to prepare the jelly, you also need to find out if you can use individual products in your recipe. So, most useful in the case of pancreatitis are oat-based oats( most nutritious variant), milk( not too fatty), freshly squeezed juices( most often diluted to take excess acid), jam( in diluted state), fruits and berries( the most useful option because of the amount of vitamins), dried fruit( nectar from them).
Recipes
Kissel is an excellent and nutritious dish, suitable for breakfast, lunch or dessert. It can be used as a separate dish as one or another meal. For people with pancreatitis, only jelly, prepared from natural ingredients, is allowed. It is forbidden to use ready-made dry mixes for this, since they can contain a number of dyes and preservatives that can worsen a patient's condition.
- For the preparation of jelly from dry products( oats), it is necessary to initially grind them into powder.
- In order to keep the maximum of useful substances in the jelly from freshly squeezed juices, they should be poured after the starch boils.
- The cooking time should be limited to 1-2 minutes.

Kissel is the most useful drink not only for patients with pancreatitis, but also for healthy people.
