Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Tahini Halva

  • Metabolic Effect: Due to its high sugar and fat content, it rapidly increases blood sugar and provides instant energy. However, this can cause you to get hungry quickly and experience an energy slump.
  • Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming it alone, consuming it with fibrous foods (fruit, vegetables) or protein sources (yogurt, milk) can balance blood sugar. It is important to be satisfied with a small portion.
  • Things to Consider: Due to its high calorie content, it should be consumed carefully by those who pay attention to weight control and diabetic patients. 1 slice of tahini halva contains approximately 2 tablespoons of sugar.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from tahini halva, you need to walk briskly for about 1 hour. Alternatively, you can do 30 minutes of intense cardio exercise.
