Is Golgappa Good for Weight Loss: Golgappa is the most liked street food in India. It is also called Panipuri. Golgappa is not only eaten by the country but also abroad. Its spicy and spicy taste draws people like it. Seeing the potato spices and spicy water filled in small crisp puris, everyone starts getting water. Golgappa is often considered a fast food without fat, but according to health experts, it also contains a good amount of calories and oil. In such a situation, it should be avoided to consume more.
Kamini Sinha, Senior Dietician of Noida Diet Mantra Clinic, told News18 That Golgappa is made of maida or semolina and is fried in oil. Spices, mint, tamarind and other things are added to its water. Things like potato, gram, peas, curd, mint are added to its filling. Golgappa contains a lot of carbohydrates simultaneously, especially when the puris made of maida are added to them. These puris are fried in oil, due to which the amount of calories in them becomes very high. If you eat more golgappas, then you inadvertently consume more calories, which can increase weight. In such a situation, Golgappas should not be eaten too much.
Dietician said that the oil used to make Golgappas can also contribute to weight gain. When the puris are fried in oil, they absorb oil, which contains more fat and calories in them. Especially if Golgappas are eaten in large quantities, then this fat can accumulate in the body and can cause weight gain. Excessive intake of spices and salt used in Golgappa can also be harmful for the body. Eating too much salt can cause water retention problems in the body, which can increase weight in a temporarily. However, eating more salt also increases the risk of high blood pressure and other health problems.
Now the question is, what is the right way to eat Golgappa. On this, the expert told that consume Golgappa in limited quantity. Eating too much can increase the intake of calories. Try not to use too much oil or salt in Golgappa. Eat it with plain water or curd, so that the taste is also maintained and the amount of calories is also controlled. It is better to make Golgappa at home than street food. At home you can make it with fresh and healthy ingredients, which will reduce calories and get more nutrition. Apart from this, if you have any kind of health problem, then avoid water puffy.
