Summer fruits, with their beautiful and attractive tastes, are actually an indispensable snack for many of us.
Although these vitamins, minerals, water and fiber rich foods have beneficial effects, they can cause harm to our body when not consumed correctly. Not paying attention to portion control is the most important reason. If we consume 2-4 portions of fruit at a time, our blood sugar will rise suddenly and drop suddenly after a short time. Meanwhile, our chances of gaining fat around the waist will increase. And if it is repeated constantly, this imbalance in blood sugar will increase the risk of insulin resistance and diabetes in the future.
What should be done?
1 portion of fruit is enough for a single snack. (A small internet search will be sufficient for the portion size of fruits)
In addition to fruits, taking advantage of dairy products such as milk, yoghurt, kefir or oily seeds such as almonds, walnuts and hazelnuts will be beneficial in maintaining blood sugar balance, and our risk of getting fat will decrease. , early hunger will not occur.
My favorite fruit suggestion is pineapple; An effective anti-cellulite remover.
