Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Cyprus Dessert
Metabolic Effect: Due to its high sugar content, it rapidly raises blood sugar levels and causes a sudden energy boost. This can lead to feeling hungry again and a drop in energy shortly after.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming Cyprus dessert alone, consuming it with protein sources such as milk or yogurt can help balance blood sugar. It is also important to pay attention to portion control.
Things to Consider: One slice of Cyprus dessert may have the equivalent calories of about 2-3 slices of bread. Individuals with diabetes or insulin resistance should be careful when consuming it.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from Cyprus dessert, you may need to walk at a moderate pace for about 60 minutes. This is a good way to increase your daily activity level.
