Answer
The calories in sushi vary depending on the dish and how it's prepared. In fact, the same sushi dish may have a different nutritional profile when it's prepared by a different chef or made in a certain restaurant, depending on the specific mix of ingredients. Generally, however, sushi can be included in a healthy-eating plan. After all, most types of seafood are relatively low in calories.
To reduce the calories in your sushi meal, start with low-calorie miso soup. Skip the shrimp or vegetable tempura rolls in favor of cucumber rolls (kappa maki) or tuna rolls. Avoid anything prepared with mayonnaise (kewpie) or added sauce. As another option, order the sushi with a smaller portion of rice or without any rice at all.
