Chicken and Garnish Cold Salad - How Many Calories?

Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Chicken and Garnish Cold Salad

• Metabolic Effect: Chicken and garnish cold salad provides a feeling of fullness due to its protein content and helps to keep blood sugar levels balanced. However, it is important to pay attention to the amount of carbohydrates it contains, and portion control is important, especially for individuals with insulin resistance.
• Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming your salad alone, you can get a more balanced meal by adding whole grain bread or a handful of nuts. In this way, you increase your fiber intake and stay full longer.
• Things to Consider: Ready-made salad dressings usually contain high amounts of sugar and fat, so preparing your own dressing is a healthier option. One serving of chicken salad is roughly equivalent to a handful of chicken and a bowl of salad.
• Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from this salad, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes or run at a brisk pace for 15 minutes. Alternatively, cycling for 20 minutes will give similar results.
