You must have often come across the word "Glycemic index" and surely thought about how is it related to Diabetes Mellitus.
The first thing we need to keep in mind is that the glycemic index majorly focuses on carbohydrate-containing foods such as cereals, bread, fruits, etc. It is a measure of how quickly your blood glucose/ blood sugar level rises after the consumption of a particular food.
But how does this happen? The Glycemic index of a particular food is compared to the standard and this standard is GLUCOSE. The glycemic index of glucose is 100. It estimates how many carbohydrates in food raise the blood glucose level following the consumption of food.
However, there are 2 types of glycemic foods:
Low glycemic foods- which are ideal to consume
High glycemic foods- which you should add to your "Avoid List"
These are better classified as:
DIABETES MELLITUS:
Controlling blood sugar levels is a challenge for all Diabetics. But they can always help themselves by selecting the magic low GI foods. Foods with low GI would help avoid swings in blood glucose levels and attain better blood sugar control.
WEIGHT CONTROL:
Low GI foods provide satiety or fullness for a longer period thus delaying one's hunger pangs. This prevents over-eating and helps control one's calorie intake.
HEART HEALTH:
Foods with low GI also help reduce bad LDL cholesterol and prevent the formation of fatty streaks, thus blocking your arteries and making them stiffer.
SPORTS / EXERCISE:
Before exercise athletes should eat low GI foods that would constantly supply energy to their working muscles.
MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES WITH THESE 2 GOLDEN RULES:
Select healthy breakfast cereals with low or moderate GI which will supply constant energy for a longer period like oats, whole wheat or sugar-free muesli rather than cornflakes.
