Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Fig
Metabolic Effect: Fig is a fruit with a high natural sugar content and provides energy. Thanks to its fibrous structure, it facilitates digestion and regulates bowel movements, which is good for constipation.
Consumption Recommendation: You can consume figs alone, or you can balance blood sugar by consuming them with yogurt or milk. It can be preferred for breakfast or snacks.
Things to Consider: Due to its high sugar content, it is important for diabetics to pay attention to portion control. Excessive consumption can rapidly raise blood sugar. 2 figs are equivalent to 1 serving of fruit.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn 74 calories, it is enough to walk at a light pace for about 10 minutes. Alternatively, a 5-minute brisk run can help you burn the same amount of calories.
