Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Sushi Rice
Metabolic Effect: Due to its high glycemic index, it rapidly raises blood sugar and provides instant energy. This can lead to rapid hunger and energy crashes.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming sushi rice alone, consuming it with protein and fiber-rich foods can balance blood sugar. It is recommended to consume it with accompaniments such as fish, vegetables, and avocado.
Things to Consider: Sushi rice is made from white rice, so it is low in fiber. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to portion control and avoid excessive consumption. Consuming one glass of sushi rice means consuming approximately 2 servings of carbohydrates.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from 100 grams of sushi rice, you need to walk for about 20 minutes. This is equivalent to about 1.5 kilometers of walking.
