Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Karniyarik
Metabolic Effect: Karniyarik supports fiber intake and facilitates digestion thanks to the vegetables it contains. However, when served with rice or bulgur pilaf, it can increase the glycemic load and raise blood sugar rapidly.
Consumption Recommendation: Consuming karniyarik with whole-grain bread or yogurt helps balance blood sugar. Also, it is important to pay attention to portion control and avoid overeating, especially at dinner.
Things to Consider: When karniyarik is fried, its fat content increases and it becomes more caloric. Therefore, it is healthier to prefer those cooked in the oven or by boiling. One serving of karniyarik is equivalent to about 2-3 meatballs of meat dish.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from karniyarik, you need to walk briskly for about 25 minutes. This also helps support your overall health.
