Calorie content of jam

It's amazing that we used to close for the wintera large number of jars with jam, of course, not eating it for the winter. The longer it costs, the more it is able to be sugared. This only harms the jail. And how do you feel about sweets? How much would you eat for one candy: one, two, three? Please note that in one teaspoon of jam as many calories as in a single chocolate candy.

Depending on the type of jam, you can close your eyes for caloric content, because its healing qualities at a certain point will be much more important than calorie content.

Thus, raspberry, blueberry, mountain ash and kalinovoe jam are your home doctors who will come to the rescue and will render more effective help than tablets. It should be noted that after boiling not all berries and fruits are able to preserve vitamins. But here apples, sea buckthorn, red and blackcurrant preserve vitamins fully.

The lowest-calorie jam is cherry. The rowan does not yield to it. In the mountain ash there is also a lot of phosphorus. Barberry, sea buckthorn, walnut, hawthorn, dogwood are also not particularly high in jam, because they have more healing properties. But do not get carried away with this jam, especially during illness. You need to know the measure, because you do not eat a pack of tablets at a time? Do not immediately and jar with jam devastate, because only make it worse. Calorie content of jam, multiplied by an empty jar, is much higher than the caloric value, multiplied by the total. This simple logical task causes a smile only in the case when the figure does not threaten such calculations.

The most effective jam is raspberry. Despite this, the calorie content is high -275 kcal. Raspberry jam, alas, is not ideal in terms of vitamins. After heat treatment, vitamin C is destroyed by almost 70-80%, because of which jam is gaining a large percentage of caloric content. Some housewives know that it is more effective to use jam-pyatiminutka for medicinal purposes, which does not suffer so much from heat treatment and keeps vitamin C practically whole. Raspberry jam influences the liver quite well, neutralizing the negative effect of smoked and fried foods on the body.
