Leer el aviso completo
Cada número de esta página (objetivos de calorías, reparto de macros y cualquier plan de comidas sugerido) se obtiene con fórmulas (Mifflin-St Jeor para la tasa metabólica basal, multiplicadores de actividad estándar) o, en los planes de comidas generados por IA, con un modelo de lenguaje que aplica esas mismas fórmulas. En las páginas de planes de comidas, la cifra de carbohidratos de cada comida se calcula por diferencia: calorías totales menos las calorías de proteínas y grasas, dividido entre 4. No se mide ni se estima por separado, así que léela como un balance aritmético y no como un análisis nutricional independiente del plato. Nada de esto es asesoramiento médico o nutricional individualizado, y nada ha sido revisado por un dietista titulado, un médico u otro profesional sanitario con licencia.
Pregunta a tu médico o a un dietista titulado qué es lo adecuado para ti antes de empezar una dieta nueva, sobre todo si estás embarazada o en periodo de lactancia, tienes una enfermedad diagnosticada, tomas medicación con receta o has tenido trastornos de la conducta alimentaria. Si tienes una enfermedad renal u otra afección médica, consulta con tu profesional sanitario antes de aumentar la proteína.
Mealyno nunca recomienda un objetivo de calorías por debajo de tu tasa metabólica basal (BMR) calculada, la energía mínima que necesita tu cuerpo en reposo completo. Incluso el ajuste de pérdida de peso más agresivo se limita a ese mínimo.
Las estimaciones de calorías y de BMR usan la ecuación de Mifflin-St Jeor (Mifflin MD, St Jeor ST, et al. Am J Clin Nutr. 1990).

Kutia is the ritual Christmas dish of wheat, poppy seeds and honey that opens the festive supper.
About this dish: Kutia
Kutia is not just a dish but a ritual: it opens the Christmas Eve supper. Traditionally kutia was also made for the Generous Evening before the Old New Year and on the eve of Epiphany, as well as for memorial meals. The base is wheat berries boiled soft, with poppy seed, honey and nuts or raisins. For a crumbly result the wheat is soaked ahead and boiled long, while the poppy seed is scalded and ground to a milky paste. Depending on the region and family, kutia is thinned with uzvar, a dried-fruit compote, or mixed with dried fruit.
It is one of the most energy-dense dishes of the festive table. Poppy, honey and nuts are very caloric: 100 g of kutia is around 210 kcal, and a 150 g portion is over 300. Wheat supplies complex carbohydrate, poppy fat and calcium, and honey fast sugar. A symbolic spoonful at the Christmas Eve table really is a small portion, but a plate served like ordinary porridge quickly becomes a caloric dessert.
To lighten kutia, use less honey and nuts and more wheat, and sweeten it with uzvar instead. It will never be a high-protein dish, and that is fine: nuts and poppy add a little protein, but plenty of calories with it. For a dish eaten once a year, it is more sensible to simply be aware of the portion than to look for a substitute for the tradition.
Where the numbers come from
This is a variable dish whose recipes differ a lot. The values are typical figures from Ukrainian composition tables and recipe databases, rounded, so real calories can differ by 20% or more.
Boiled wheat with poppy seeds, honey, nuts and raisins. Composition varies widely by household. Calories are derived from protein, fat and carbohydrate at 4, 9 and 4 kcal per gram, so the numbers on the page never contradict each other.
Your kitchen will differ: real calories for a dish like this are usually within ±20%, which for this portion means 255 to 380 kcal. See the Method page for sources and calculations. These are general guides, not medical advice.
What changes the calories
Honey, nuts and poppy seeds lift the calories. Poppy seed alone is over 500 kcal per 100 g, so a portion with a generous spoon of honey and nuts easily passes 400 kcal.
