Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Turkey Thigh (Cooked)

  • Metabolic Effect: Cooked turkey thigh, with its high protein content, helps repair and grow muscles, while providing a long-lasting feeling of fullness, supporting weight control. At the same time, the B vitamins it contains regulate energy metabolism.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can create a balanced meal by adding cooked turkey thigh to your salads or consuming it with plenty of fibrous vegetables. Consuming it by separating its skin helps to reduce fat intake.
  • Things to Consider: Cooked turkey thigh can be high in sodium, so it is important for individuals with high blood pressure to pay attention to portion control. A serving should be about the size of a palm.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories you get from 100 grams of cooked turkey thigh, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes. Alternatively, 20 minutes of brisk running or 35 minutes of cycling will have the same effect.
