Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Poppy Seed Oil

  • Metabolic Effect: Poppy seed oil is high in unsaturated fats, which can help lower bad cholesterol and support heart health. However, due to its high fat content, it is important to avoid excessive consumption.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It can be used as a dressing in salads or in meals. Because it is heat-resistant, it can also be preferred in low-temperature cooking processes. However, avoid using it at high temperatures, as it may lose its nutritional value.
  • Things to Consider: Due to its high calorie content, portion control should be observed. Those who want to control their weight should use this oil sparingly. One tablespoon contains approximately 106 calories.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories in one tablespoon of poppy seed oil, you need to walk at a light pace for about 15 minutes. You can burn these calories in addition to your daily activity.
