Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Sesame Simit

Metabolic Effect: It is a food with a high glycemic index, therefore it raises blood sugar quickly. It does not keep you full for a long time and can cause you to get hungry quickly.
Consumption Recommendation: You can balance your blood sugar by consuming it with protein sources such as cheese, olives or eggs. It will also be beneficial to consume it with a salad with plenty of greens.
Things to Consider: One simit is equivalent to approximately 4 slices of bread. People with high blood pressure should consume it carefully as the sodium content is high.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from one simit, you need to walk briskly for about 45 minutes. Alternatively, you can run for 30 minutes.
