Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Longan

  • Metabolic Effect: Longan provides energy thanks to its natural sugars, while its fiber content helps balance blood sugar. Thanks to its antioxidant properties, it protects the body against free radicals.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can consume Longan fresh or dried. You can add different flavors to your salads or yogurt by adding Longan.
  • Things to Consider: Excessive consumption can raise blood sugar due to its high sugar content. It is important for especially diabetic patients to pay attention to portion control. Consuming approximately 10-15 longan is equivalent to one serving of fruit.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from Longan, it is enough to walk at a light pace for about 10 minutes. This is an exercise that you can easily include in your daily activity routine.
