What are the long-term side effects of eating too much baby corn?

Question

Hi doctor,

Is eating baby corn as a substitute for snacks completely healthy? I wanted to make it spicy. Are there any long-term side effects to eating too much baby corn?

Thanks.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Baby corn is a good source of nutrients like vitamin C and fibre, it is also high in fats and carbs. So yes, when you talk about calories, it counts the same and cannot be called a suitable substitute, in my opinion as a nutritionist. Salads, unsweetened fruit, or vegetable juices that are low-calorie would instead be suitable.

I understand that you want to replace fast foods or junk food snacks with healthy items. Kindly tell me your weight. I will give you a nutrition chart or list of foods if you confirm this.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
