Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Green Onion

  • Metabolic Effect: Thanks to the fiber it contains, it facilitates digestion and regulates bowel movements. Due to its antioxidant properties, it protects the body against free radicals.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It can be used fresh in salads, meals or soups. It can be added as chopped to add flavor to dishes.
  • Things to Consider: Excessive consumption can cause heartburn. Those with reflux disease should consume it carefully. A bunch of green onions is usually enough.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from 100 grams of green onions, you only need to walk at a light pace for about 10 minutes. These calories can be burned more quickly with more intense activities.
