Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Halva

Metabolic Effect: Due to its high sugar content, it quickly raises blood sugar and then causes sudden drops. This can lead to fluctuations in energy levels and a desire to eat again.
Consumption Recommendation: You can help balance blood sugar by consuming it with foods rich in fiber and protein. For example, it may be beneficial to consume it with a glass of milk or a few walnuts.
Things to Consider: Especially diabetic patients and those who want to control their weight should pay attention to portion control when consuming halva. One slice of halva can contain a significant amount of calories and sugar.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn these calories, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes. Alternatively, you can also do a 20-minute brisk run.
