Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Quince Jam

Metabolic Effect: Quince jam provides quick energy due to its high sugar content. However, it is low in fiber and other nutrients, so it can raise blood sugar quickly.
Consumption Recommendation: It is important to pay attention to portion control when consuming quince jam. Consuming it with a fibrous food such as whole grain bread or oatmeal can balance blood sugar.
Things to Consider: Excessive consumption of quince jam, which has a high sugar content, can lead to weight gain and dental health problems. A tablespoon of quince jam has approximately the same calories as 2 slices of bread.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from quince jam, it will be enough to walk for about 15 minutes or cycle for 8 minutes.
