Samsa - How Many Calories?

Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Samsa

• Metabolic Effect: Samsa contains carbohydrates, fats, and protein due to its pastry and filling. The fat content increases the feeling of satiety, while the carbohydrate can raise blood sugar.
• Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming samsa alone, consuming it with foods containing fiber and protein such as salad or yogurt can balance blood sugar and prolong the duration of satiety.
• Things to Consider: One medium-sized samsa contains approximately the same calories as 2 slices of bread. It is important for those who want to control their weight to limit samsa consumption and pay attention to their portions.
• Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from samsa, you need to walk at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes. This encourages being more active during the day and exercising regularly.
