Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Wheat Semolina (Cooked)
Metabolic Effect: Wheat semolina can be digested quickly after cooking, potentially raising blood sugar levels rapidly. Portion control is especially important for individuals with diabetes.
Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming semolina alone, pairing it with yogurt or milk can help stabilize blood sugar levels. You can also add fruits or nuts to increase its fiber content.
Things to Consider: One bowl of semolina contains carbohydrates equivalent to about 2 slices of bread. Paying attention to portion size is important for weight management.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from one serving of semolina, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 15 minutes. Regular physical activity also helps in balancing blood sugar.
