Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Fennol

  • Metabolic Effect: Fennel helps regulate blood sugar levels due to its low glycemic index and prevents sudden hunger pangs. The fiber it contains regulates the digestive system and alleviates constipation.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can add fennel to your salads or consume it with olive oil. When consumed with yogurt, it prolongs the feeling of fullness and increases vitamin absorption.
  • Things to Consider: One serving of fennel is about a handful. Excessive consumption may cause gas and bloating in some people, so portion control should be observed.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn 100 grams of fennel, it is enough to do about 7 minutes of light-paced walking. This is an exercise that you can easily integrate into your daily activities.
