Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Paella

Metabolic Effect: It is rich in carbohydrates due to the rice it contains and provides quick energy. Protein from seafood and chicken helps repair and grow muscles.
Consumption Recommendation: It can be consumed with a salad with plenty of greens for a balanced meal. Lemon juice not only enhances the flavor but also supports vitamin C intake.
Things to Consider: It may have a high sodium content, so those with blood pressure problems should pay attention to portion control. Portions of paella prepared in restaurants are usually large.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn one serving of paella (232.4 kcal), you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 29 minutes. This is equivalent to approximately 2.1 km of walking.
