What about dieting?
Jul 18, 2024
While in the first half of 2024 'Maratanghuru' dominated the popularity of the MZ generation, in the second half of 2024, 'Dubai Chocolate' is emerging as a trend.
Dubai Chocolate is a typical product made by a company called 「Fix Dessert Chocolateier」 in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.
Through the SNS channel, influencer and creators were greatly viral at the bite of 'crunching'.
What about dieters who are popular for their sweet and bitter taste and crisp texture 'Dubai Chocolate'? With the help of Moon Kyung-min, CEO of the 365mc Bundang branch, 'Dubai Chocolate' is summarized.
▶'Dubai Chocolate', is it okay to eat while on a diet?
Unfortunately 'Dubai Chocolate' is too much to be a dieter's friend.
This is because the green content that comes to mind when you think of Dubai chocolate can be fatal to dieters. The identity of this green content is pistachio cream. Pistachio itself is rich in dietary fiber and nutrients, helping to consume healthy fat, but making it into butter cream with sugar changes the situation. When cardif, one of the thin Middle Eastern noodles, is combined, the amount of heat will inevitably increase significantly.
As Dubai chocolate has become difficult to obtain locally, 'Dubai-style chocolate' is also not suitable for dieters in that it is high in sugar. One of the Dubai-style chocolates that is appearing one after another in Korea contains 8 grams of saturated fat and 14 grams of sugar per 48 grams. It is small and has a high calorific value of 234 ㎉.
"Most chocolates on the market, including Dubai chocolate, are high in sugar and fat, so it is better to stay away from dieters as much as possible," said CEO Moon. "Excessing sugar can raise blood sugar and affect appetite, so dieters should not eat as much as possible."
▶ If you're a dieter, 'dark chocolate' is the alternative...Pistachio and 'Jjakkoong'
Dubai chocolate, which is hard to get due to its global popularity. If you're a dieter, why don't you enjoy the sweet and bitter crunch in another way instead of Dubai chocolate?
If you miss the sweetness, it's a little bit bitter, but 'dark chocolate' could be the solution. Dark chocolate is a snack that even people who tighten their diet to lose weight are allowed, and dark chocolate contains ingredients such as theobromine, flavanol, and phenylethylamine, which provide effects such as appetite suppression, insulin sensitivity, and vitality. When choosing dark chocolate, it is important to choose a product with a cacao content of more than 60-70%, and daily intake should not exceed 30 to 40g.
Pistachio is recommended as a partner for dark chocolate. It is a way to enjoy sweet bitter dark chocolate and crispy pistachios separately.
"If you eat dark chocolate before a meal, theobromine stimulates the secretion of leptin, a hormone that suppresses appetite, to prevent overeating, and polyphenol improves muscle performance after exercise, helping to restore muscles," Moon said. "If you consume pistachios that help increase satiety and lower cholesterol, it will be good for your health as well as snacks during diet."
