Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Chestnut (Roasted)

  • Metabolic Effect: Roasted chestnut is rich in fiber and complex carbohydrates. Thanks to this feature, it slows down digestion and ensures that blood sugar rises in a balanced way.
  • Consumption Suggestion: Consuming roasted chestnuts as a snack keeps your energy levels balanced and prevents sudden hunger attacks. Consuming it with a glass of milk or yogurt increases protein intake and prolongs the feeling of fullness.
  • Things to Consider: The roasting process can increase the calorie density by reducing the water content of the chestnut. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to portion control. A handful of roasted chestnuts contains approximately 147 calories.
  • Exercise Equivalent: It is recommended to walk briskly for about 15-20 minutes to burn the calories you get from a handful of roasted chestnuts. This is an activity that you can easily do during the day.
