Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Baklava Phyllo Dough
Metabolic Effect: Baklava phyllo dough is a quick source of energy due to its high carbohydrate content. However, because it is low in fiber, it can quickly raise blood sugar levels.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming baklava phyllo dough alone, using it with protein and fiber-rich ingredients can help you create a more balanced meal. For example, you can bake it with vegetables and cheese.
Things to Consider: Baklava phyllo dough can make portion control difficult due to its thin structure. A few sheets of phyllo dough can cause you to consume a high amount of calories without realizing it.
Exercise Equivalent: Burning the calories from baklava phyllo dough may require approximately 10-15 minutes of brisk walking or 5-10 minutes of running. This time varies depending on the amount consumed and your activity level.
