So the total is 19 calories , almost twice as much , " Inge said in a talk show " Healthy Campaign Nestle Indonesia : Zone healthy Nestle " in Jakarta , Thursday ( 10/04/2014 ) .
According to Inge , the oil content is high with fried rice cooked using cooking oil or butter . When heated , the two materials will turn into saturated fats can increase the risk of diseases , such as heart disease and stroke . Not to mention the risk of obesity .
Inge stressed , oil consumption at each meal should not be more than the size of a thumb . If it is more than that then it can be said that edible food already contains excessive fat .
Fat , he added , should be consumed in its raw form , eg extra sauce or olive oil on salads . Oil consumption in the form of fried foods will increase the intake of calories that should be replaced with other, more nutritious foods , such as vegetables and side dishes was replaced with that containing proteins .
