Coach's take: is Malpua healthy?

  • ●Malpua is calorie-dense, so portions add up fast at 350 kcal per 100 g. About 56% of its calories come from carbs, 6% from protein and 38% from fat.

  • ●It's low in protein (2 g in 1 piece (40 g)), so if you're building muscle, pair it with dal, paneer, curd, eggs or chicken.
  • ●Much of its carbohydrate is sugar (35 g per 100 g), so treat it as an occasional food rather than a daily staple.

To burn it off: 1 piece (40 g) (140 kcal) takes about 28 min of brisk walking or 13 min of running for a 70 kg adult.
