People who are losing weight can eat some sago in moderation, but should avoid long-term and large intake so as not to affect the weight loss effect. Sago mainly contains a large amount of carbohydrates such as starch, as well as a small amount of protein, fat, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. Although it can play a certain role in supplementing energy, it is not suitable to be used completely as a staple food, but can be eaten with other foods, and a small amount of consumption will not affect weight loss. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, sago is warm and sweet, which is more suitable for people with weight loss purposes, but weak spleen and stomach, and has a certain warming effect, so eating some sago in moderation during weight loss will not have adverse consequences on the body or affect the weight loss effect. However, because sago contains more starch, which is hydrolyzed in the body to produce glucose, it is not suitable for people with diabetes and high and unstable blood sugar to eat during weight loss. It is also not recommended to consume large amounts to avoid symptoms of indigestion and affect normal appetite. Moreover, after the hydrolysis of starch to produce sugar, if it cannot be fully absorbed, it may be converted into fat, thus affecting the weight loss effect. You can eat sago for dessert for weight loss, but it should be based on the diet principle of small amount and few times. You can drink it with milk, coconut milk, flower tea and other beverages, or cook rice or porridge with sago in small amount to increase the taste. Weight loss patients should control their diets and reduce the intake of high sugar, high fat and high calorie diets, but should not go on a complete diet to avoid nutrient loss.
