Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Pepsi
Metabolic Effect: Due to its high sugar content, it raises blood sugar quickly and can contribute to insulin resistance. In the long term, this can lead to weight gain and other health problems.
Consumption Recommendation: Consumption should be avoided or reduced as much as possible. If it is to be consumed, consuming it with fibrous foods (fruit, vegetables) can help balance blood sugar.
Things to Consider: A can of Pepsi contains approximately 10-12 teaspoons of sugar. This amount is well above the daily sugar requirement and is also harmful to dental health.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from a glass of Pepsi, you may need to walk at a light pace for about 15-20 minutes. However, if consumed regularly, this exercise may not be sufficient.
