We all know that sausages and other sausage products are not only not healthy, but often simply harmful to our health. But from this less we do not eat them. On the contrary, the demand for sausages was and remains high. Today we will consider how useful they are and find out their calorie content.
What sausages are made of
Let's start with the fact that we decide that sausages and sausages are not a meat product. According to the norms, the amount of meat in them should be at least ten percent. But, based on practice, there really is much less of it. In order to understand what calorie sausage is, you need to know its approximate composition. Our Russian manufacturers do not put anything into this product. There is bone meal, cellulose, and starch, and fat, and, of course, preservatives. All these ingredients will make up the calorie sausage. For example, the popular "Milk" sausages have a calorie content of about 260 kcal per 100 grams. And the calorie content of sausages made from pork is already 350 kcal per 100 grams. When choosing sausage products, you should first of all pay attention to their composition. The first lines should be occupied not by any “starch and herbal supplements”, but by pork or beef, and only then the remaining components are listed. Ideally, there should be no starch or other questionable products. In addition, pay attention to a component such as fat. People watching the figure need to look not so much at the calorie content of the sausage, but at the percentage of fat in it. Now there are special baby sausages on sale , but we would not recommend them for constant use, since nevertheless baby food should be rid of preservatives and other chemicals that are part of sausages. The caloric content of such a product is about 240 kcal per 100 grams.
You are on a diet
If we consider the use of sausages and sausages during the diet, then we can say that dietitians have a negative attitude to such food. Even despite the fact that the average calorie sausage is not so great, this product is not for proper nutrition. If you are on a carbohydrate-free diet that allows you to consume this type of food, then try to choose sausages with the lowest fat content. See also the price category. Most likely, the low cost of sausages also means low quality. Next to the sausage is her "friend" in terms of component composition - sausage. The calorie content of this product is not much different from the previous one. All the same 250-300 kcal per 100 grams and a high fat content.
And finally
In conclusion, we want to say, despite the fact that many people love sausage products, they should not be eaten every day. If you have diseases associated with overweight, kidney, blood cholesterol, try to replace these products with more useful ones. An excellent alternative can be called natural meat cooked at home. This will be a good source of protein for your body, and if you choose a lean product and exclude the addition of high-calorie ingredients from the recipe, you will get a wonderful diet dish!
