Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Risotto

  • Metabolic Effect: Risotto is a rice-based dish, so it is high in carbohydrates and provides energy. However, because it has a high glycemic index, it can raise blood sugar levels quickly.
  • Consumption Recommendation: Consuming it with vegetables increases fiber intake and helps balance blood sugar. Portion control should be observed.
  • Things to Consider: Due to its high carbohydrate content, individuals with diabetes should consume it carefully. Adding cream and cheese increases the calorie value.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories in 100 grams of risotto, you need to cycle at a moderate pace for about 20 minutes.
