Metabolic Effect: Due to its high sugar content, it quickly raises blood sugar and increases insulin secretion. This can lead to sudden energy drops and faster hunger.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming ice cream alone, consuming it with fibrous foods (fruit, nuts) or protein sources (milk, yogurt) can help balance blood sugar. It is important to pay attention to portion control.
Things to Consider: One scoop of ice cream is roughly equivalent to one serving of fruit, but contains less fiber and more sugar. Especially those with diabetes or those who want to control their weight should consume it carefully.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from one serving of ice cream, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 20 minutes. Alternatively, a 10-minute brisk run can have the same effect.
