Have you ever thought how many calories in sushi?

Fortunately sushi is not a fattening food and contains not much calories. Sushi is made with white, short-grained, Japanese rice mixed with a dressing made of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Rice contains some amount of carbohydrates. Sushi can be eaten even without rice as sashimi which will also reduce amount of eaten calories. Sushi is also rich in protein and this helps in building lean muscle.

Some restaurants with a preference for flavor over calorie watching may add to sushi rolls ingredients, such as mayonnaise, which will increase their caloric values. Sushi that contains mayonnaise and cream cheese, and also tempura sushi, are generally high in calories. They are not recommended in weight loss diets.
However, information on this page should give you good estimation of the calories and nutrition ingredients in various sushi items.
