Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Carob Molasses
Metabolic Effect: Thanks to the natural sugars it contains, it is a quick source of energy. However, due to its high sugar content, it can quickly raise blood sugar. This is especially important for people with diabetes.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming carob molasses alone, consuming it with protein sources such as milk or yogurt can help balance blood sugar. Also, consuming it with fibrous foods prolongs the feeling of satiety.
Things to Consider: One teacup of carob molasses is roughly equivalent to 4 tablespoons of honey. Providing portion control is important to prevent excessive calorie intake.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from one teacup of carob molasses, you need to walk briskly for about 1 hour. This contributes to daily energy expenditure.
