Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Artichoke Heart
Metabolic Effect: Artichoke heart facilitates digestion and regulates bowel movements due to its high fiber content. It also helps with weight control due to its low calorie content.
Consumption Recommendation: You can consume artichoke hearts in salads, olive oil dishes, or grilled. Adding chicken or fish as a protein source helps you create a balanced meal.
Things to Consider: One serving of artichoke heart is about the size of a palm. Since the amount of fiber it contains is high, excessive consumption can cause gas or bloating.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from 100 grams of artichoke heart, it is enough to walk at a light pace for about 10 minutes. This is a low amount of calories that you can burn even with a short walk.
