Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Lokma
Metabolic Effect: Lokma rapidly raises blood sugar due to its high sugar and fat content, causing a sudden energy spike. This can lead to feeling hungry again soon and experiencing an energy crash.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming Lokma alone, consuming it with foods containing protein and fiber can balance blood sugar. For example, you can consume it with a handful of nuts or a glass of milk.
Things to Consider: Consuming 2-3 pieces of Lokma is equivalent to approximately one serving of dessert and can significantly increase your daily calorie intake. Individuals with diabetes or insulin resistance should be especially careful.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from Lokma, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 60 minutes or run at a brisk pace for 30 minutes. This can be a good motivation to increase your daily activity level.
