Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Jam, Jelly, and Marmalade

Metabolic Effect: Due to the high sugar content, it raises blood sugar rapidly and provides instant energy. However, this can lead to rapid hunger and energy crash.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming jam, jelly, or marmalade alone, consuming it with foods containing protein and fiber is a more balanced option. For example, it can be consumed with whole wheat bread or yogurt.
Things to Consider: It is important to pay attention to portion control of jam, jelly, and marmalade. 2 tablespoons of jam are roughly equivalent to 1 slice of bread and contain high sugar, so people with diabetes should be especially careful.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories consumed by eating 2 tablespoons of jam, you need to walk for about 30 minutes. This helps maintain daily energy balance.
