10 most high-calorie sweets that we buy in the supermarket every day

Going to the store is not always an easy task, because you have to choose products from a huge assortment. Sometimes we throw familiar products into the basket out of habit, not paying attention to the expiration date and calories...

But it is unknown how they will affect our health and weight. After all, if you regularly consume sweets, and also with a sedentary lifestyle, you may not even notice how gradually you gain weight.

From this selection you will learn about the most high-calorie sweets that you probably buy every day.

Marshmallow

Pink, white, chocolate... An oriental delicacy that has been known since ancient times. Its taste is sweet and sour, the marshmallow is airy, just like a cloud! When you see an oriental sweet in a store, your hands seem to reach out for the packaging...

Many people prefer marshmallows to other sweets because of their delicate and light taste, but if you don’t follow the daily intake and consume them regularly, you can gain weight. Those losing weight are allowed to eat no more than one piece of sweets per day.

The composition of marshmallows includes: sugar, egg yolk, gelatin, sugar, apple marshmallow, each ingredient is quite high in calories.

On average, the calorie content of marshmallows ranges from 298 to 304 kcal per 100 grams. product. It all depends on the ingredients and method of preparation.

Criteria for “healthiness” for sweets

It is believed that sugar makes any product high in calories, and also leads to overeating and obesity, is stored as glycogen and gradually turns into body fat. In the lists of foods prohibited during dietary nutrition, you can almost always find chocolate, sweets and other desserts familiar to us.

That is why which sweets are low-calorie and which are not determines their composition. Nutritionists consider healthy desserts to be products with a calorie content of no more than 150 kcal, which contain artificial and natural sweeteners, fructose or sugar. Such dishes:

  • stimulate the production of serotonin, elevate mood;
  • give a boost of energy;
  • help perform complex tasks and engage in mental activity by feeding the brain with glucose;
  • improve the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, as they contain pectins.

When preparing desserts at home:

  1. Use a mixer or blender to achieve a fluffy consistency and balanced flavor.
  2. Carefully calculate the final calorie content - it should not be more than 150 kcal.
  3. When cooking, use dried fruits or honey, as well as fructose and sweeteners. Avoid refined sugar.
  4. Use oatmeal or buckwheat flour when preparing baked goods.
  5. It is better not to use cream, sour cream and butter, and also limit nuts and seeds.

Please note that many “healthy” sweets do not fall under the definition of “dietary”. For example, during a diet you are allowed to eat marshmallows - but such a “store-bought” product contains approximately 320 calories per 100 grams, which should be taken into account when planning your daily calorie intake.

Paste

You can see various marshmallows on supermarket shelves. Charlize, a pastille with different flavors, often catches your eye.

Probably everyone has tried it at least once, and there are those who buy it every day. After all, it is so soft, airy, it just melts in your mouth! If you look at the composition of the product, it does not contain E-additives - this is certainly encouraging.

In 100 gr. The product contains 340 kcal. It seems that this is not much, but if you use the marshmallow regularly and many times, it is unknown how it will affect your weight.

How to use the table

Oddly enough, calorie tables are also needed for all skinny people who want to acquire attractive muscle definition, and therefore gain weight. Muscle mass and fat tissue mass are completely different indicators both in appearance and volume. You can lose weight with the help of some kind of diet and constantly see the results when you step on the scale, but in the mirror you can observe an increasingly greater deterioration in the quality of your body. What is this connected with? Simply beautiful relief consists of muscle tissue, which requires two factors for growth:

  • Sufficient amount of protein for muscle growth and recovery;
  • Physical activity to transport nutrients through the bloodstream throughout the body and provide micro-injuries to muscles that promote their growth.

There are many formulas for finding daily caloric intake and everyone can choose according to their preferences. On average, the diet for women is 1500 – 2500 kcal per day, depending on age, body weight and height. On average, men should consume about 2000-3000 kcal

But as already mentioned, not only the number of calories is important for achieving results, but also what nutrients (proteins, fats and carbohydrates) these calories will consist of. When building muscle mass, protein foods and complex carbohydrates should predominate.

The calorie tables indicate indicators per 100 grams of food, which is also very convenient in determining the proportions of certain ingredients in a dish, as well as the final calorie content of a freshly prepared homemade stew or sandwich, salad or porridge. Knowing the calorie content and biological value of ready-made meals, it will be easy for you to decide on the serving size so as not to overeat.

Kozinak

Kozinak is a product made from honey and nuts. It is traditionally prepared for the New Year's table in Georgia.

We can say that traditional kozinaki is a storehouse of minerals and vitamins, because seeds and nuts contain life-giving natural power.

The price of kozinak from supermarkets is encouraging - “sunflower” costs no more than 20 rubles. A treat made from seeds at an inexpensive price - what could be better? But sweets have a lot of calories.

In 100 gr. Kozinaka contains 580 kcal.

Looking for low-calorie desserts in stores

Now you can buy low-sugar products in almost any store. It is enough to know the list of branded sweets that fall under the definition of “low-calorie”. You can find them not only in specialized stores, but also in simple super- or hypermarkets, as well as pharmacies. For example, products of the Turboslim brand.

By the way, there are no low-calorie store-bought sweets - they are best prepared at home. Even pharmacy diabetic sweets contain 250-300 calories per 100 grams. Indeed, the only way out is to prepare such a delicacy yourself - using natural sweeteners and cooking fats of vegetable origin.

Halva

Many people buy this oriental sweet like halva for themselves and their children. In Arabic, halva is translated as “sweetness.” Halva was first made in Iran, but over time it became popular and spread throughout the world. But no one knows how halva got to Russia...

You should know that halva is a very high-calorie product, and if you are watching your weight, then it is better to avoid this sweetness.

The calorie content of sunflower halva is 523 kcal per 100 g.

Peanut paste

Peanut butter is a less popular product among consumers, and perhaps there are those who wanted to try it only because of American films. They often mention this product; the family eats peanut butter for breakfast, spreading it on a loaf.

Peanut butter is just a symbol of calories! After all, they are essentially nuts mixed with fats. There are, of course, more high-calorie sweets, but regularly eating peanut butter is hardly a good option.

In 100 gr. pasta contains 594 kcal, Nutella nut butter contains 546 kcal.

Meat products

Meat products contain practically no carbohydrate component; they are rich in proteins and fats.

Animal fat, if consumed in excess, can cause increased cholesterol levels and the development of atherosclerosis. However, you should not give up meat products - meat and eggs contain a full range of essential amino acids that the body requires to form muscle mass.

For a healthy diet, choose lean meats and egg whites. Calorie table for meat products:

Waffle cake with chocolate

Sometimes you really want to treat yourself to something sweet... for example, after work or on weekends. An inexpensive and tasty sweet is a waffle cake.

It is great as a dessert and can be served at the table. The buyer can choose from such cakes as “Yashkino”, “Shokoladnitsa”, “Korovka”, etc. - they are very tasty, but high in calories.

In “Shokoladnitsa”, for example, there are 540 kcal per 100 grams, and in “Yashkino” 530.

List of the lowest calorie desserts

Let's consider a list of low-calorie sweets that can be added to the menu even if you are on a diet. Here are some of them:

  • diet bars;
  • canned fruits;
  • parfait;
  • jelly;
  • puddings;
  • souffle;
  • diet jams;
  • sorbet

If you are seeing a certain product for the first time, take a look at its packaging. Does it say that per 100 grams there are 150 calories or less? Then feel free to take it - this dessert belongs to the dietary category.

Sweet corn sticks

If you want to eat something sweet and inexpensive, then corn sticks always catch your eye. You can buy a huge bag of sweet sticks and eat to your heart’s content as much as you can handle...

The product is made on the basis of corn flour, and both children and adults love this sweetness. Corn itself is high in calories; if you grind it into flour, you get 350 kcal per 100 grams, but the sticks that we see on the shelves contain even more kcal.

For example, 100 grams of sweet sticks “Kuzya” contain 490 kcal.

Marmalade

We can see a wide variety of marmalade - it is sold by weight or in packages. Looks very attractive, kids love it! In general, marmalade is a low-calorie product, but it is important to pay attention to its composition when purchasing.

For example, marmalade rolled in powdered sugar contains additional calories, so it can no longer be called a low-calorie sweet.

100 grams of “Lemon Slices” marmalade contains 323 kcal.

Rules of use

Even the most low-calorie meals can have a negative impact on the body and will slow down the weight loss process if you do not follow the basic recommendations of nutritionists.

For example, do not forget that in case of second-degree obesity and diabetes mellitus, any sweets, even low-calorie ones, are strictly prohibited. We recommend that you contact a nutritionist or your doctor to clarify this issue. Desserts are also prohibited if you are on a carbohydrate diet.

Of course, the serving size itself will depend on the total daily calorie intake and the calorie content of a particular dish. Usually this is a standard one hundred to two hundred grams.

Here are a few more basic rules to follow:

  • It is better to cook baked goods with the addition of flaxseed flour; dishes based on it not only quell the feeling of hunger faster, but are also less caloric;
  • In order to completely use up the calories received from dessert, it is better to enjoy it in the first half of the day;
  • pay attention to the too high percentage of lipids in butter creams and yeast baked goods, which disrupts intestinal function and “slows down” metabolism - you should completely avoid eating such dishes;
  • the energy value of the sweets you choose should be no more than ten percent of the total calories consumed per day;
  • You shouldn’t indulge yourself with desserts every day; it’s better to eat even the lowest-calorie sweets no more than three times a week;
  • if you really want something sweet, just eat one or two pieces of dark chocolate.

The most important condition is not to drink sweets! They should not be eaten with tea or coffee, as this has a negative effect on digestion. This rule should be followed even if you do not plan to lose weight, but simply maintain your weight and figure.

Chocolate

Chocolate can be different - high-calorie, low-calorie... But here we are talking about high-calorie products that we buy regularly.

Someone takes a chocolate bar without paying attention to how many calories it contains, because of the low price. The more calories there are in chocolate, the healthier it is, but such chocolate is not suitable for those losing weight.

In 100 gr. “Alenka” chocolates, for example, which you see on the shelves, contain 550 kcal.

The best foods for weight loss

The main goal when losing weight is to saturate the body with nutrients without adding unnecessary calories.

Pay attention to products with low fat content; the method of preparing the dish also matters. It is preferable to steam, boil or bake food in the oven.

The best foods for weight loss in the table:

Product categoryRecommendations
Meat productsChoose boiled chicken breasts or cook lean beef or lean pork in the oven. The egg white should be separated from the yolk to reduce the calorie content of the product. Avoid all processed meats.
DairyOpt for low-fat milk, cottage cheese, yogurt and kefir to fill your body with protein without extra calories.
Fish and seafoodSteamed or grilled fish and seafood can be added to the diet without restrictions.
