Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Date Molasses
Metabolic Effect: Date molasses provides quick energy and raises blood sugar rapidly. Thanks to its iron content, it can be good for anemia, but it should be consumed carefully.
Consumption Recommendation: It can be used for breakfast or to satisfy sweet cravings, but portion control should be observed. Consuming it with milk or yogurt can balance blood sugar.
Things to Consider: Due to its high sugar content, diabetics and those who want to control their weight should be careful. 1 tablespoon of molasses is equivalent to about 2 teaspoons of sugar.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from 1 tablespoon of date molasses, you need to walk for about 30 minutes. This should be balanced with regular activity.
