Major Nutrients Found In Cinnabon®
There are plenty of words that come to mind when you first see exactly how many calories are in Cinnabon® cinnamon rolls. The first of which is ‘holy cow!’ With more than 800 calories in a classic cinnamon roll this sweet treat is a meal and a half worth of calories, which means you’ll be working all day in the gym just to burn it off.
But when looking closer at Cinnabon® nutrition facts there are other factors to consider such as the total and saturated fats, both of which are exceptionally high. There is a lot of cholesterol and sodium found in the Cinnabon® cinnamon roll, which means it is primed to help you pack on some weight.
The carb count is high, and unfortunately most of them are simple carbohydrates that don’t do much for your fat loss efforts. With 55 grams of sugar in just one of these rolls, you’ll get nearly double your recommended daily allowance of sugar. One the upside, there is a healthy amount of protein and fiber!
Selecting/Storing
When choosing a pastry from Cinnabon®, they are already pre-made so you don’t really have much choice beyond picking the one that looks most delicious to you. You can make the choice to select a smaller pastry like the Minibon® or the stix where you can save a few hundred calories.
Store your Cinnabon® roll in the fridge for up to 3 days. Warm it up in the oven or microwave before biting in again.
Eat It With:
Because of the sugar and sodium content found in Cinnabon® you should eat it with a tall glass of water or tea. There are too many calories to add a high calorie drink to the mix. In fact if weight loss is your goal then you should split the cinnamon roll into 3 or 4 servings. This allows you to have something you enjoy without consuming an enormous amount of calories.
