Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Powdered Sugar

Metabolic Effect: Since powdered sugar consists almost entirely of simple sugar, it raises blood sugar very quickly. This can cause sudden increases in insulin levels followed by rapid declines, which can lead to low energy and sugar cravings.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming powdered sugar alone, it may be better to use it with other foods if possible. For example, it can be consumed by sprinkling it on oatmeal or yogurt, but it is important to pay attention to the amount control.
Things to Consider: One tablespoon of powdered sugar is approximately equivalent to 2-3 sugar cubes. Especially those with diabetes and those who want to control their weight should be very careful when consuming powdered sugar.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from a tablespoon of powdered sugar, it may be necessary to walk at a light pace for about 5-7 minutes or run at a brisk pace for 3-4 minutes. However, this may vary depending on the individual's metabolic rate and activity level.
