Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Boiled Potato

Metabolic Effect: Boiled potatoes provide energy thanks to the carbohydrates they contain, but because they have a high glycemic index, they can rapidly raise blood sugar levels. This can cause sudden energy spikes and crashes.
Consumption Recommendation: Consuming boiled potatoes with foods containing protein and fiber can balance blood sugar. For example, you can create a more balanced meal by consuming it with yogurt or salad.
Things to Consider: A medium-sized boiled potato contains approximately the equivalent carbohydrates as 1-2 slices of bread. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to portion control.
Exercise Equivalent: Walking for about 15-20 minutes may be enough to burn the calories you get from a medium-sized boiled potato. This allows you to burn approximately 70-80 calories.
