Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Fried Chicken

  • Metabolic Effect: Fried chicken keeps you full for a long time due to its high protein content. However, the calorie value is quite high due to the oil it absorbs during the frying process.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can balance your meal by consuming it with plenty of vegetables. Also, you can create a healthier alternative by choosing skinless and baked chicken.
  • Things to Consider: Fried chicken, especially when consumed frequently, can cause weight gain and increase cholesterol levels. It is important to pay attention to portion control.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from 100 grams of fried chicken, you need to walk briskly for about 45 minutes. Alternatively, 22 minutes of running can provide the same effect.
