JAKARTA - Closures are often present after we eat the main food, to fulfill the desire to eat sweet foods. Written from the Hindustan Times page, Senior Consultant nutritionist - Nutrition & Diet at Marengo Asia Hospital Dr. Neeti Sharma suggested eating a sweet dessert after breakfast.

"Time is giving your body enough time to metabolize sugar and carbohydrates efficiently and prevent a spike in blood sugar levels. Eating desserts as part of breakfast or lunch can provide a steady energy source throughout the day, helping to curb appetite and prevent overeating in the future," he said.

Choose a healthier choice of desserts such as fruit salads, yogurt parfaits, or whole grain stand to increase nutritional intake while at the same time satisfying sweet tastes.

"Consumption of desserts in the morning gives the body enough time to burn calories throughout the day, thereby reducing the risk of excess calories, increasing weight," said Shruti Keluskar, Nutritionist, Cloudnine Group of Hospitals, Pune.

Meanwhile, eating sweet foods in the afternoon can help satisfy appetite without disturbing metabolism or causing a drop in sugar a day in the future.

"It's important to choose low- sugar desserts and high nutrients to support your overall health during pregnancy," added Keluskar.

Sharma further said eating desserts after a sporting session can also be useful, as your body needs recharging glycogen deposits to help muscle recovery. Installing post-training desserts with protein-rich foods can further improve repair and muscle growth.

Nutritionists do not recommend enjoying desserts at night and also after eating heavily because it can cause a jump in sugar. Consuming foods that are high in sugar or heavy before bed can cause a spike in blood sugar levels, which can disrupt sleep patterns and contribute to weight gain.

"If you like sweet foods at night, consider choosing healthy foods in small portions such as a piece of black chocolate or a small portion of orbit, to satisfy your appetite without burdening your body's system," said Keluskar.

In addition, eating desserts as soon as eating heavy can inhibit digestion and cause discomfort, bloating, and digestive disorders. It is recommended to wait at least an hour or two later. Eat before enjoying the dessert to allow good digestion of the main dish, according to Dr Sharma.
