Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Pomegranate Jam

Metabolic Effect: Due to its high sugar content, it rapidly raises blood sugar levels and can cause fluctuations in insulin levels. This can lead to sudden energy drops and hunger pangs, especially for individuals with diabetes.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming it alone, consuming it with high-fiber whole-grain bread or oatmeal helps to balance blood sugar. Consuming it with a protein source (yogurt, milk) will also balance blood sugar.
Things to Consider: One tablespoon of pomegranate jam contains about the same amount of calories as 2 slices of bread. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the amount consumed and not exceed the daily sugar intake. Those who want to control their weight should pay attention to portions.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from one tablespoon of pomegranate jam, you need to walk for about 15 minutes. Alternatively, you can burn these calories by doing 10 minutes of brisk running or 20 minutes of light exercise.
