I've been studying the glycemic index to find low carbohydrate foods that metabolize slowly. I'm not diabetic, but next to hypoglycemia I know that I could become diabetic.
I'm confused now by the conflicting information I'm getting in the region of the glycemic index not being a true indicator of how our blood sugar level respond to carbohydrates.
For instance, carrots supposedly hold a higher GI rating than most vegetables, but counter differently in our bloodstream than duplicate amount of carbs from refined bread or sugar would.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
By the route, hypoglycemia is not a problem for me, I rarely experience it since I own avoided sugary foods for years.
Answers: The amount of fibre contained by food will slow down rhe absortion of the food and therefore will own a lower gi than other food with alike amount of carbohydrate but less cellulose.
I eat granary bread, basmatti rice, wholegrain cereal and wholewheat pasta to get my low gi garb. Vegetables I dont worry just about, i eat as much as i resembling. Pulses are also low GI so add kidney beans to chilli. stews salads etc,
Just hang on to the refined food (white flour and sugar) to a mimimum and avoid fatty foods as lubricant interferes with the course the body uses insulin.
THE ZONE books have fine info on this.
My antenna get dry amazingly normally?
