 Attention to meat consumption during the feast


Dietician Halime Pulat Demir drew attention to the importance of balanced nutrition and active life during Eid al-Adha, where consumption of red meat increased, and made warnings about not to overdo meat and dessert consumption during the feast.


Providing important advice to those who want to spend Eid al-Adha in a healthy way, Istanbul Gelisim University Department of Nutrition and Dietetics Asst. Prof. Dr. Halime Pulat Demir said that the meat should be consumed after waiting at least 24 hours. Demir stated that the meat consumed without resting may cause digestive problems.

“MUST BE WAITED AT LEAST 24 HOURS”

Suggests that meat should be kept for 24 hours after the animal is cut and consumed after resting, Demir said: “Meats that are eaten without waiting can cause digestive system problems. This situation is not paid much attention in our society, but at least let them shift the meat consumption to the lunchtime on the first day of the feast. It will be healthier to consume after a rest period of 5-6 hours. Starting the day with eating kavurma (diced roasted meat) in the morning will be very uncomfortable for the digestive system. Apart from this, meat can be kept at -2 degrees for 6 months. It can be separated into portions in refrigerator bags and stored in the freezer properly for consumption.”
