Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Chestnut Pilaf

Metabolic Effect: Chestnut pilaf can rapidly raise blood sugar due to the rice it contains. However, chestnut can slow down this rise to some extent thanks to its fiber content. Still, portion control is important.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming chestnut pilaf alone, consuming it with a salad or yogurt containing protein and fiber helps to balance blood sugar. This combination also extends the duration of satiety.
Things to Consider: Chestnut pilaf is a dish that those who want to control their weight should pay attention to their portions. A plate of pilaf can meet a significant portion of the daily carbohydrate requirement. One serving of pilaf is equivalent to approximately 3 slices of bread.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from chestnut pilaf, you need to walk for about 25 minutes. Alternatively, 12 minutes of fast-paced running can help you burn the same amount of calories.
