Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Strawberry Jam

  • Metabolic Effect: Because it contains a high amount of sugar, it raises blood sugar quickly and can cause sudden fluctuations in insulin levels. The fiber ratio is low, so it does not provide long-term satiety.
  • Consumption Recommendation: It can be consumed in small amounts for breakfast, but it is healthier to take it with foods containing protein and fiber (for example, whole wheat bread and cheese). Do not overdo it.
  • Things to Consider: A tablespoon of strawberry jam contains approximately 20 calories, which is equivalent to a piece of fruit. Those who want to control their weight should pay attention to portions.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn 214 calories, you may need to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes or cycle for 20 minutes. This time may vary depending on your physical activity level.
