Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Lemon Poppy Seed Cake

Metabolic Effect: Lemon poppy seed cake can rapidly raise blood sugar levels due to its high carbohydrate content, leading to a quick energy boost followed by a crash. The sugar and simple carbohydrates it contains do not provide long-lasting satiety by affecting insulin levels.
Consumption Recommendation: Consuming this cake with a protein or fiber-rich food (such as yogurt or milk) can help balance blood sugar levels. It is important to stick to a small portion and not replace a meal with it.
Things to Consider: One slice of lemon poppy seed cake has approximately the same calories as 1.5 slices of bread. Individuals with diabetes or insulin resistance should pay particular attention to their consumption.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from this cake, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 25 minutes. Alternatively, a 15-minute run can provide the same effect.
