Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Carbohydrate Powder
Metabolic Effect: Carbohydrate powder provides quick energy and rapidly raises blood sugar levels. This feature can be beneficial, especially for athletes, in the post-workout recovery process.
Consumption Recommendation: It is usually consumed by mixing with water or milk. However, it is important to pay attention to the amount consumed, as excessive consumption can lead to weight gain.
Things to Consider: Diabetics and those with insulin resistance should be careful when consuming carbohydrate powder. One serving contains carbohydrates equivalent to about 7 slices of bread.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from one serving of carbohydrate powder, you may need to run at a moderate pace for about 1 hour.
