Understanding the Glycemic Index and Blood Sugar Control
-
The glycemic index (GI) is a useful way to keep blood sugar levels in check. After you eat, it rates carbs from 0 to 100 based on how quickly BerbaPrime and how much they raise your blood sugar. Foods with a high GI make blood sugar rise quickly, while foods with a low GI make it rise more slowly.
Adding low GI foods to your diet can help you handle your blood sugar much better. Most fruits and veggies, whole grains, beans, and nuts are all examples of low GI foods. Because these foods are broken down more slowly, blood sugar levels stay more stable. To keep blood sugar from rising too quickly, you should limit high GI foods like white bread, sugary snacks, and processed foods.
