Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Semolina
Metabolic Effect: Semolina, due to its high carbohydrate content, can quickly raise blood sugar. Thanks to its fiber content, it is digested more slowly and provides a feeling of satiety.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming semolina alone, consuming it with foods containing protein and fiber helps to balance blood sugar. For example, it can be consumed with milk or yogurt.
Things to Consider: Semolina is a food that requires portion control. One glass of semolina contains approximately the same amount of carbohydrates as 8 slices of bread.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from a glass of semolina, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 120 minutes. This covers a large portion of the calories consumed.
